Understanding Backlink Reports

The Customer Backlink Reports feature generates comprehensive reports showing all backlinks created for a specific customer across different campaign types. This is essential for client reporting and tracking deliverables.

Report includes:

  • Image Link campaigns
  • Keyword Link Replacer campaigns (External and Internal)
  • URL Redirect campaigns
  • Post Embeds (iframes, maps, videos)

Navigate to Project Management → Customer Backlinks to access the reporting interface.

Generating a Report

Step 1: Select the Customer

At the top of the page, use the customer dropdown to select the client for whom you want to generate a report.

Example: Select “New Customer” from the dropdown menu.

Step 2: Review Campaign Types

The system displays all campaigns organized by type:

Imagelink Section:

  • Shows image replacement campaigns
  • Displays keywords used (e.g., “UUVs”)
  • Shows target URLs (e.g., “https://facebook.com”)
  • Lists subdomains where backlinks were created (e.g., “Aerospace”)

Keyword Link Replacer Campaigns Section:

  • Displays both External and Internal backlink campaigns
  • Shows campaign names (e.g., “TSD Tutorial 2026-External Backlink Campaign”)
  • Lists keywords replaced (e.g., “kw”, “2329 2323”)
  • Shows backlink URLs (e.g., “https://business.google.com/”, “https://www.facebook.com/”)
  • Indicates target subdomains (Beverage, Amazon, etc.)

URL Redirect Section:

  • Shows redirect campaigns
  • Displays keywords used for filtering (e.g., “resilience”)
  • Shows redirect destination URLs (e.g., “https://youtube.com”)
  • Lists applicable subdomains (e.g., “Aerospace”)

Post Embeds Section:

  • Shows iframe and embed campaigns
  • Displays embed types (Google Map, iframe, YouTube Video)
  • Shows keywords (e.g., “kw”)
  • Shows embedded URLs with full paths
  • Lists target subdomains (e.g., “Amazon”)

Step 3: Select Campaigns for Report

  • Use the checkboxes at the left of each campaign to select which campaigns to include in the report
  • You can select individual campaigns or entire campaign types
  • The Subdomains dropdown on the right shows which subdomains are targeted

Step 4: Generate and Download

  1. After selecting desired campaigns, click the Generate Report button at the bottom left
  2. The system processes the report in the background
  3. Use the Download button (top right, green) to download the completed report
  4. You can also use the Select a report dropdown to access previously generated reports

Report Generation Status

Monitor report generation progress:

  • Navigate to Logs → Background Processes
  • Look for report generation tasks
  • Check status and completion time

The report shows “Showing 1 to 7 of 7 entries” at the bottom, indicating total campaign count.

Understanding the Report Data

Each campaign entry shows:

  • Campaign Name: Identifies the specific backlink campaign
  • Keyword: The keyword that was replaced or used for targeting
  • Backlinks(s): Number of backlinks created or target URLs
  • Subdomains: Where the backlinks were placed

Example Interpretation: If you see “TSD Tutorial 2026-Niche Edit System-Google Map Embed” with keyword “kw” showing a long Google Maps URL, this means a Google Map was embedded in articles containing the keyword “kw” across the Amazon subdomain.

Best Practices for Client Reporting

  1. Generate reports monthly: Provide regular updates to clients on backlink creation progress
  2. Include context: When sending reports to clients, include explanations of campaign types
  3. Track cumulative progress: Generate reports periodically to show total backlinks created over time
