When it comes to SEO, it’s not just the links you have on your site that matter — the links on other websites that link back to you are extremely important, as well. In fact, search engines use the number of backlinks that your website has as one of it’s most important signals for determining the quality of your website, as well as its ranking.
However, not all links are created equal. When it comes to backlinks, you’ll want to make sure that you have not only quantity, but quality backlinks from reputable sites to give your site the rankings boost you’re after. To make this task easier, here at NetElixir, we’ve developed our own SEO Backlink Checker app; designed to display the details of the incoming links (backlinks) to your website.
Now, we’re proud to announce that our easy-to-use tool has reached its milestone of 10,000 downloads!
Looking back prior to our 10,000 downloads, so many things have changed that we could have never expected. To start, building a mobile SEO backlink checker tool was never originally on our roadmap. We purchased an external API to identify backlinks just for our LXRSEO tool, but felt we weren’t taking full advantage of our API. Hence, we decided to create and launch our SEO Backlink Checker app in December of 2014 so we could better utilize this and our customers could also benefit by being able to track and analyze their backlinks on-the-go.
While we were excited about our new tool, we were also skeptical. We weren’t sure if anyone would really use this kind of app on mobile, considering how heavily web-based SEO is. It just goes to show you that you really can’t assume anything without giving it a shot, as less than a year later in October of 2015, we were proud to celebrate the 10,000th download of our SEO Backlink Checker app!
As for the future of our SEO Backlink Checker app, we can’t wait to continue improving our mobile backlink tool to make examining your backlink portfolio even easier, especially when you’re on the move.
