# SEOkicks review (2026): is it worth it? > German backlink checker with its own link index, exports and an API Checked Oct 23, 2026 ยท graded Oct 23, 2026 by ToolGPA. SEOkicks is a backlink checker that runs its own crawlers and says its index holds more than 200 billion link records. For any domain it reports the number of links and of linking domains, IPs and networks, and lists the linking pages, anchor texts and newly found links. The data is available on the website, as CSV exports and through a REST API, and the site is in German and English. - **Category:** Backlinks & Link Building - **Made by:** Jobkicks S.L.U. - **Website:** https://www.seokicks.de - **Runs on:** Web - **Who should skip it:** Skip it if you want to see a price or try it free first: plans only show in the sign-up flow, and no free plan or trial is listed. - **Facts last checked:** Oct 23, 2026 ## Pricing SEOkicks's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site. ## Key features - **Own link index:** Link data comes from SEOkicks' own crawlers rather than a third party, in an index the company puts at more than 200 billion link records. - **Link popularity counts:** Shows Linkpop (links found), Domainpop (linking domains), IP-Pop and Class-C pop, so sitewide links can be told apart from broad linking. - **Link details:** Lists linking domains with their link counts, the exact linking pages with link attributes, anchor texts by frequency, link targets and recently found links. - **Affiliate publisher search:** Pick an AWIN affiliate program and a country to see which sites link to it, a way to find publishers in a niche. - **IP lookup:** Enter an IP address instead of a domain to see the domains hosted on it. - **CSV export and REST API:** Data can be exported as CSV or pulled from a REST API that returns XML or JSON; each request costs 1 credit, plus 0.1 per record for detail queries. ## Good for - SEOs who want a second backlink index beside Ahrefs or Majestic - German-speaking agencies and site owners - Developers pulling link counts and linking domains into their own tools ## Worth knowing - Prices and account types appear only in the sign-up flow, which could not be read, so pricing is unverified here. - The terms say prices are net of VAT and that contracts renew for the same term unless cancelled in writing two weeks before it ends. - API use is metered in credits: 1 per request, plus 0.1 for each record returned by a detail query. - Its pages describe link lookups, exports and the API; they do not describe alerts when a link changes. ## ToolGPA grades **GPA: 1.8 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. SEOkicks reports links, linking domains, anchors and new links from its own index, which it puts at more than 200 billion link records, with CSV exports and an API. But its prices only appear inside the sign-up flow, nothing free is on record, and its pages show no alerts when a link changes. - **Value for money: C.** No price is on record. SEOkicks shows its prices and account types only inside the sign-up flow, which couldn't be read, so there's nothing to set against what the rest of this category charges. - **Free plan and trial: F.** Nothing free on record: the listing has no free plan and no trial, so you'd be paying from the start. - **Features: C.** Its own index with Linkpop, Domainpop, IP-Pop and Class-C counts, linking pages, anchors, newly found links, an IP lookup and an AWIN publisher search. It does backlink lookups fully, but that's one part of link building, and its pages show no alerts when a link changes. - **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. Typing in a domain is easy enough, but counts like IP-Pop and Class-C pop take some know-how to read, and API use is metered in credits. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only, but the data also comes out as CSV exports and through a REST API in XML or JSON, so it plugs into your own tools. The site is in German and English. These are ToolGPA's own grades. Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from SEOkicks' own pages on 23 October 2026. Not based on using the product, and shorter than our full reviews. ## Where it stands among link building tools - SEOkicks's GPA of 1.8 is higher than 2 of the 50 other link building tools we grade, and level with 10. - It stands best on platforms and integrations (B, above 28 of 50) and worst on free plan and trial (F, above 0). The category's chart of price against score: https://toolgpa.com/charts/link-building ## Keep it, or make your own? **Keep it.** To replace SEOkicks you would be making an index of the links between billions of web pages. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 38 of the 50 other link building tools grade higher. - You could not: An index of the links between billions of web pages. - You could not: It plugs into other products, AWIN among them, and has an API. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it. ## Works with AWIN **Tags:** Backlink analysis, Public API ## Alternatives - [Majestic](https://toolgpa.com/tools/majestic): Backlink index with Trust Flow, Citation Flow and link history.
