Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
1.8
GPA, above 2 of the 50 other link building tools we grade
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.
To get you started, here are 7 things to know about SEOkicks, taken from its own pages and our grades.
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.
- 1
Best for a second backlink index with 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.
- 2
It runs on Web
Web.
- 3
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.
- 4
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.
- 5
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.
- 6
A 1.8 GPA, above 2 of 50
That is against the other link building tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 7
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.

The report card
Best for a second backlink index with an API
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.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| 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. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who SEOkicks is for
- Fits if you want a second backlink index beside Ahrefs or Majestic
- Works for pulling link counts into your own scripts through the API
Who it is not for
- 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
- Not for you if you want alerts when a link appears or disappears, as its pages describe none
- Tight if you'll pull lots of link detail by API, at 1 credit per request plus 0.1 per record
- Watch out: prices are net of VAT, and contracts renew for the same term unless cancelled in writing two weeks before it ends
- Too light for outreach of any kind, as it looks links up and nothing more
Good to know
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.
Part 02 · Pricing
What it costs
Every plan, the free plan, ways to pay less and how prices have moved
SEOkicks's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site.
Nothing free on record: the listing has no free plan and no trial, so you'd be paying from the start.
We could not confirm SEOkicks’s current prices from its own site, so this guide lists no plans. seokicks.de has them.
Part 03 · Features
What it does
Its main features, where it runs, what it works with and who makes it
1
Place it runs: Web
German backlink checker with its own link index, exports and an API. Here is what it does, as its own site describes it, and what it covers: public API, backlink analysis.
It does backlink lookups fully, but that's one part of link building, and its pages show no alerts when a link changes.
- 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.

Part 04 · Standing
Where it stands
Its grades against its category, and whether to keep it or make your own
2/50
Other link building tools it is graded above
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).
Each grade against the category
Every bar is all 51 link building tools we grade, cut by the letter each got. SEOkicks’s own letter is outlined.
- CValue for moneyAbove 8 of 50
- FFree plan and trialAbove 0 of 50
- CFeaturesAbove 4 of 50
- CEase of useAbove 0 of 50
- BPlatforms and integrationsAbove 28 of 50
Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
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.
What you could not
- An index of the links between billions of web pages.
- It plugs into other products, AWIN among them, and has an API.
What this rests on. SEOkicks’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
