Know every link you win and every link you lose.
Hex tracks the links pointing at you and your competitors, snapshots them weekly so you see what was won and lost, and walks you through a disavow review.
An alternative to Semrush Backlink Analytics, Ahrefs Site Explorer
What it does
New and lost over time
Weekly snapshots record every new and lost link, with a chart of both and the links themselves.
Disavow workflow
Hex suggests toxic and blocklisted domains, you review them as disavow or keep, and it writes disavow.txt in Google’s format.
Referring domains and anchors
Referring domains, anchor distribution, first and last seen, from DataForSEO, Search Console and your own crawls.
Authority Score
Hex’s own blended score with a documented formula, alongside its Domain Rating.
Link gap and bulk analysis
Find domains linking to competitors but not you, and analyse up to 200 domains at once with CSV in and out.
Good to know
- Hex’s Domain Rating is relative to the link data Hex has collected; it is not Ahrefs’ DR.
Questions
Does Hex create a disavow file?
Yes. Items you mark as disavow are exported as disavow.txt in Google’s format, ready to upload in Search Console.
