GET
Backlink Competitors
Domains with a backlink profile similar to the target. Billing is per returned data row, $0.36 per row (up to 20 rows). A broad seed returns more rows, so the input size decides the cost — start narrow. ⚠️ The response is semicolon-delimited text, not JSON — parse it as CSV-style rows.
