How your backlink strategy comes together

The strategy our team prepares for you is built using our own tool, Backlink Gap Analyzer. Want to run it yourself? Try Backlink Gap Analyzer

Step 1

Tell us your domain

Just share your domain. We automatically find your top competitors using Semrush data, and you can adjust the list if something's off.

Enter your domain in Backlink Gap Analyzer

Step 2

We compare your backlink profile against competitors

Our link strategist builds a full comparison: total referring domains, average Authority Score, and how each competitor's backlinks are distributed across authority ranges. This shows not just whether competitors are stronger, but where.

Step 3

Identify what's missing

Our strategist sees clearly whether your gap comes from insufficient backlink volume, a lack of high-authority domains, or an imbalance between mid-tier and strong backlinks. Instead of asking "what should we build next," you already have the answer, backed by data you can use to justify budget, set KPIs, and forecast results with confidence.

Links that support visibility in search and AI

Google rankings are no longer the only measure of search visibility. AI platforms such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews also rely on third-party sources, brand mentions, and broader authority signals when choosing which brands and content to surface.

Serpzilla helps you build the off-page signals that support both traditional SEO and AI visibility. Your strategy can combine backlinks, brand mentions, and UGC placements selected for relevance, authority, and stronger coverage across the web.

With Serpzilla GEO, you can track how often AI platforms mention your brand, in what context, and with what sentiment. Compare your visibility with competitors and identify where stronger third-party coverage is needed.
