Backlinks API: Search Ranking of Referring Pages

We’re excited to announce a major enhancement to our Backlinks API! This update introduces the ranked_keywords_info object to the responses of the Backlinks endpoint, providing you with detailed information about the search ranking performance of the returned referring page.

In particular, the ranked_keywords_info object contains:

page_from_keywords_count_top_3 indicates the number of keywords for which the returned referring page is ranked in the top 3 search results.
page_from_keywords_count_top_10 highlights the number of keywords for which the page is ranked in the top 10 search results.
page_from_keywords_count_top_100 provides insights into the number of keywords for which the page is ranked in the top 100 search results.

These new parameters are designed to empower you with a refined understanding of how well the returned page performs on Google search.

For example, when setting tasks to the Backlinks endpoint, you can add the following filtering and sorting rules to obtain a list of the most high-traffic referring pages:

[
    {
        "target": "forbes.com",
        "mode": "as_is",
        "filters": ["ranked_keywords_info.page_from_keywords_count_top_3","<>",0],
        "order_by": ["ranked_keywords_info.page_from_keywords_count_top_3,desc"]
    }
]

This request filters out referring pages that do not have positions in the top 3 results on Google. The sorting ensures the resutls you get begin with the referring pages ranking in top 3 for the highest number of keywords.

Feel free to experiment with different combinations of these parameters. If you have any questions or need assistance, our support team is always here to help!
