How this service works
Backlink anchor text API - list the anchor texts pointing at a domain, each with how many backlinks, referring domains and referring pages use it, the dofollow/nofollow split, DataForSEO rank, spam score and broken-link count. For anchor-text distribution analysis, over-optimization/penalty audits and link-building research. Unknown domain returns empty results.
Output
A ranked list of anchor text strings used in inbound links to the target domain, up to the specified limit (default 20, max 100), likely including each anchor phrase and its frequency or share of total backlinks.
Example use cases
SEO audit for over-optimization
“Check the backlink anchor text profile for moz.com and return up to 100 anchors — I want to see if their link text is too keyword-heavy or naturally diverse.”
Competitor link strategy research
“What anchor texts are people using to link to semrush.com? Give me the top 30 so I can understand what keywords their backlink profile is built around.”
Penalty risk assessment for client site
“Pull the anchor text distribution for clientsite.com — top 20 anchors — I need to check if they have spammy or exact-match anchor patterns that could be causing a Google penalty.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://seo.openverbs.com/v1/backlink-anchors?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to audit or analyze the anchor text distribution of a domain's backlink profile — particularly for SEO audits, penalty investigations, competitor link strategy research, or verifying anchor text diversity. Prefer this over general backlink profile endpoints when the specific text used in links (not just link counts or sources) is what matters.
Side effects
- Invalid or non-existent domain returns an error or empty result
- Limit parameter outside 1–100 range is rejected with a validation error
- Domain with very few backlinks may return fewer anchors than requested
- Scheme or path included in target may be stripped silently or cause a parse error
- Network timeout or upstream data provider unavailability returns 5xx
