Domdetailer alternative — the apibacklinks backlink API
A developer-first, 10× cheaper Domdetailer alternative: backlinks, referring domains, anchors and Domain Rating as one JSON API. $100 free, DR & counts keyless.
Everyone knows Domdetailer. Far fewer enjoy its bill, its seat limits, or its export caps. Bulk Domain Stats and Backlink Data
The data you want — referring domains, backlinks, anchor text, a Domain Rating — is right there, just locked behind an export button and a price.
apibacklinks was built for exactly this: referring domains, backlinks, anchors and a 0–100 Domain Rating, delivered as JSON over a web-scale link graph. Domain Rating and link counts are free and keyless; the heavy backlink and referring-domain lists cost about a tenth of what Domdetailer and the incumbents charge.
The numbers for domdetailer.com above come straight from that index — proof it works on the brand you’re comparing. Grab a key, pass ?key=, and you're migrated — with $100 of credit and no monthly minimum waiting on you.
