Operated by Sourcelane✓ verified
Find where your brand is mentioned across the web, with sentiment, site authority and whether each page links back to you, so you can turn mentions into backlinks.
A web monitoring connector that finds pages (news, blogs, forums, directories) mentioning a brand or keyword, detects backlink opportunities, and annotates each mention with sentiment classification and numeric sentiment/emotion scores, site and page authority metrics and spam score, linkback detection (linked, unlinked, unverified, unreachable), publication and crawl timestamps, page type, language and country, and a flag for newly discovered mentions; it uses a continuously updated web index, performs content extraction (including handling JavaScript-loaded pages with an “unverified” state), authority scoring, sentiment and emotion analysis, and supports filtering and scheduling to return prioritized lists of mentions and potential backlink targets.
