ACGM Authority

Understand every link to your website.

CGM Authority finds the sites linking to you, scores the quality of every link, and shows what's helping your rankings on CGMIMM, Google and Bing, what's hurting them, and where to get better links next.

More than a backlink count

Built on the CGMIMM search engine's own crawl of United States websites: the links we find, the pages they sit on, and our own Authority score for every site, recalculated nightly on our own servers.

Every link, scored

Each link to your site gets a 0–100 quality score: the authority of the linking site and page, where the link sits, whether it's followed, how relevant the page is, and more. Every score comes with the reasons.

Your whole link profile

Authority score, linking sites, quality mix, anchor text, placement, follow vs nofollow — and the share of links that could be hurting you.

Toxic links, flagged

Adult and gambling sites, spam anchors, parked domains, link networks and city doorway pages are flagged, with a one-click list you can use to disavow them.

New and lost links

Your site is tracked daily. See links as they appear, and get told when a link disappears — we re-check the linking pages ourselves.

Competitor link gap

Compare your profile with up to three competitors and get the list of quality sites linking to them but not to you.

Broken-link reclaim

Find links pointing at pages on your site that no longer load, so you can fix the page or redirect it and keep the value.
