LinkDR

LinkDR: MCP server for backlink research, SERP analysis, AI search visibility, and managed link building

Connect Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, VS Code, Codex, or any MCP client to LinkDR: inspect Domain Rating (DR) and organic traffic across domains, check who ranks in Google SERPs, review how ChatGPT and Google AI Overview cite your site and competitors, approve or decline publisher placements, and order DR-tiered backlinks.

This repository contains the client configuration, plugin manifests, and agent skill for the hosted LinkDR MCP server at https://linkdr.com/mcp. Full documentation is at linkdr.com/docs/mcp.

What your agent can do with LinkDR

• Domain & publisher research: Look up Domain Rating (DR), organic traffic, ranking keyword counts, and industry for up to 25 domains in one call (get_domains), or filter the publisher marketplace by keyword, industry, country, DR, and traffic (search_domains).
• SERP & keyword discovery: Inspect the top organic rankings for any keyword (get_keyword_serp) or search cached keyword analyses (search_keywords).
• AI search visibility: Check whether ChatGPT and Google AI Overview mention and cite your site or your competitors for your project keywords (get_my_ai_answers).
• Projects & outreach tracking: List your LinkDR projects (list_my_projects), inspect outreach progress across Discovered, Contacted, In discussion, and Live stages (get_my_project), add new sites (create_my_project), and expand tracked keywords and competitors (update_my_project_strategy).
• Site approvals: Review pending publisher proposals and site lists (list_my_pending_approvals) and approve or decline placements (decide_my_site_approval).
• Backlink ordering: Get an exact price quote and prefilled browser checkout URL for DR 30+, DR 40+, DR 50+, and DR 60+ backlinks (order_backlinks), or charge a saved card on the project after explicit confirmation.

Security & billing boundaries

• Project-scoped access: You only see and act on projects you own or belong to.
• No unsolicited outreach: No tool on https://linkdr.com/mcp sends emails to publishers.
• Explicit quote confirmation: order_backlinks always returns a quote (status: "preview") and a browser checkoutUrl first. It never charges a saved card unless you explicitly confirm the exact quoted amount (confirmPaymentSpend: true and expectedTotalUsd).
