About Majestic

Majestic provides link intelligence and domain metrics in the form of backlink histories, referring domains, anchor texts, keyword search volume, and their own Flow Metrics, to equip SEOs and marketing professionals with the information to improve their link building and search engine optimization (SEO) strategies.

Majestic has two separate link indexes - the 'Historic’ index, which is refreshed monthly, and 'Fresh’ index, which is refreshed daily. The historic index spans back over more than five years, and allows users to review historic backlink profiles and create reports for custom historic timeframes.

Users can be notified of new links for pages or sites they are tracking, and any mentions of their brand name or domain which has not linked to their site, informing them of potential link opportunities.

Majestic’s Flow Metrics allows users to assess the likely size and quality of sites in advance of any linkbuilding outreach. Citation Flow predicts the influence of a URL, based on the number of sites linking to it, while Trust Flow is based on how closely a site is linked to manually-reviewed trusted seed sites, and predicts the likely quality level of that site. Topical Trust Flow has categorised the entire web by industry, and scores are given for over 800 categories which rate how influential a web page is for each given topic.


Key benefits of Majestic

Majestic can send users email notification of new links for specific sites or pages they wish to track

Reports can be created for specific years through the historic index, and filtered to only include data from specific date ranges

Majestic reveals where users’ website names have been mentioned without being linked to, giving users information on new link opportunities

Users can compare backlink history for up to 5 domains at a time, and the backlink profiles for two sites can be compared graphically with the ‘link profile fight’ tool

First- and last-crawled dates allow users to analyse the history of a site, and confirm the existence of past site relationships which are no longer live

Flow Metrics enable users to evaluate a site’s potential as an outreach target, based on both the site’s influence (both overall and within specific sectors) and their perceived level of quality or trustworthiness

Pros

Majestic has the largest index of data around links. It's a no-brainer for anyone working in PR or linkbuilding.

It's kind of a one-trick pony, it's focus on links.

I have used multiple SEO tools and found Majestic SEO to be an average tool. Since I wanted to keep track of backlinks for my website I used this tool and it worked well.

Pros

Cons

Majestic is not ideal for SEO web audits, keyword research, gaining competitor analytics, etc. The data is not so accurate and reliable.

I have been using Majestic for 10+ years, and I would not switch to any other link analysis tool. It's simple to use and gets the job done, with little to no frills at all.

Pros

Easy to use, easy data export, good link data volumes

Cons

The UI feels a bit outdated and less "polished" than what users came to expect nowadays.
