Link Prospecting skill
Find relevant link prospects from SERPs, competitor backlinks, and topical publishers with your AI agent.
Run it in your agent: /link-prospecting (with the Claude Code plugin: /seoprama:link-prospecting). Other agents have their own skill picker, or ask for the workflow by name.
The Link Prospecting skill finds relevant outreach prospects for a page or asset.
Your agent searches resource pages, articles, directories, and competitor backlink patterns. It uses Seoprama data and web research to find sites with a real reason to mention your asset.
You get a smaller set of qualified prospects, with notes on why each one fits and what outreach angle could make sense.
What this skill helps your agent do
- Build prospecting queries from your asset, topic, audience, or competitors.
- Find resource pages, listicles, comparisons, directories, publishers, and topical articles.
- Use competitor backlink patterns to understand where attention comes from.
- Qualify prospects by topical relevance and outreach angle.
- Draft outreach messages tied to the specific page and reason.
- Avoid inventing contacts or treating spammy prospects as useful.
When to use it
Use this skill when you already have something worth linking to: a useful guide, product page, original study, tool, template, dataset, or strong point of view.
It also helps after competitor analysis if backlink patterns show publications, directories, communities, or partners that matter in your market.
What you get back
Your agent should return the best outreach angle, highest-priority prospect type, a prospect table, contact-discovery notes, and a few reusable outreach drafts.
How to get the best result
- Share the target URL or describe the linkable asset.
- Explain why someone would reference it.
- Provide competitors when competitor backlinks are useful.
- Ask the agent to prioritise relevance over volume.
- Require source URLs for any contact details it finds.
Use it with Seoprama MCP
Set up Seoprama MCP so your agent can inspect SERPs, backlink overview data, and domain context before researching contact paths.
