Frequently asked questions
How does it differ from the CSV anchor audit? +
The CSV anchor audit processes anchors that you provide (Ahrefs/Majestic/Stringer export). This tool fetches the real anchors pointing to a URL directly via DataForSEO. Handy for auditing a target (yours or a competitor's) without needing an export.
Why a usage cap? +
Each query costs about $0.05 in DataForSEO credits. To keep it free, we cap at 10 analyses per day per browser (localStorage). Plenty for legitimate use, tight enough to deter scraping.
How to read Penguin risk? +
Three empirical thresholds calibrated on observed algorithmic penalties: exact-match ≥ 30% or money anchors (exact + partial) ≥ 60% = strong algorithmic risk. 15-30% exact = watchlist zone. Under 15% with dominant brand + naked URL = healthy profile.
