How Does It Work?
With this integration, Semrush backlinks are now accessible in Surfer SEO. This means that, as a Surfer user, you can obtain invaluable insights into your competitors’ link-building activities without having to leave the Surfer interface, saving you time and simplifying the process.
It also means that you no longer need to manually consult your backlink analysis reports. Surfer SEO automatically provides an updated list of your rivals’ new backlinks (along with actionable on-page SEO recommendations) every week, ensuring that you’re kept fully aware of any developments that could affect your strategy.

Why Does This Matter?
In any industry, top ranking websites all have at least this one thing in common: a seriously strong backlink profile. And understanding the strategies behind these profiles is key to creating your own link-building plan. Our integration helps you discover new referring domains of your competitors. So you can incorporate this data into your competitor backlink analysis workflow, which is used to:
- Explore and understand the link-building landscape of your niche
- See which links drive growth for your rivals
- Identify which link-building techniques are the most effective
As well as link-building insights, Surfer's Grow Flow tool also provides you with weekly tasks and suggestions for improving your on-page SEO, helping you to outrank your competitors, and claim the top spots in Google.
