Quick overview

This workflow automates large-scale backlink profile analysis using Make, Google Sheets, and the DataForSEO Bulk Pages Summary endpoint. Instead of auditing domains one by one, it reads a list of target domains from Google Sheets, sends them as a single batch request, and writes backlink data directly back into your spreadsheet. This allows you to review backlink performance across hundreds of domains in a fast and organized way.

Who it’s built for

This workflow is designed for SEO specialists, link-building professionals, and digital marketing agencies that need to evaluate and compare backlink profiles across multiple domains quickly and efficiently.

Workflow breakdown

  • The workflow is triggered manually whenever you want to run a backlink analysis.
  • It reads the list of target domains from a Google Sheet.
  • The scenario groups all domains into a single batch request and sends it to the DataForSEO Bulk Pages Summary endpoint.
  • It retrieves backlink profile metrics for each domain, including backlink count, referring domains, domain rank, spam score, and additional SEO indicators.
  • Finally, the collected data is mapped back to the corresponding rows in Google Sheets for easy analysis and reporting.
