Results

Domain rank, backlinks, and referring domains, plus what verified, attributed, and seen in index mean.

Results is where you see the outreach paying off: your domain's authority over time, and the backlinks your agents earn. It tracks the Website you set in Knowledge.

You need a website first#

If Results shows "No website yet. Add your website in Settings > Knowledge and Results starts tracking it", add your site there. Results tracks that domain, so it must be the real one you want ranked.

The tiles#

Three tiles show your domain's authority, each with a 30-day change chip and a sparkline:

  • Domain rank. The DataForSEO domain rank, on a 0 to 1000 scale.
  • Backlinks. The count of links pointing to your site.
  • Referring domains. The number of distinct domains that link to you, which matters more than raw link count.

The change chip reads "+12 in 30 days", "no change", or "no 30-day baseline yet" when the history is too short to compare.

Below the tiles, this section lists the links tied to your outreach. Before any land, the empty state reads "No backlinks recorded yet. Sends are going out; wins land here the day the index sees them." Each link shows a dofollow or nofollow badge, then one confidence status.

Verified, attributed, and seen in index#

These three statuses tell you how sure GenLink is that a link is real and yours:

  • Verified. A crawl found the live link on a page you pitched. This is the strongest signal.
  • Attributed. The link is claimed by your outreach: it is tied to a lead row, or its source is the agent, our crawl, or you recording it by hand.
  • Seen in index. The index found the link, but nobody you pitched is on that page. In the app's words, "the index saw this link; nobody we pitched is on the page."
  • A daily job re-crawls every page you pitched, looking for a live link to your site, over a 120-day window, re-checking every 72 hours. It uses an honest GenLinkBot/1.0 user agent. If a page returns a 403, it counts as blocked, not checked.
  • A separate daily job pulls live backlinks from the index, and another snapshots your own domain for the tiles.

The per-agent Results tab#

Each agent has its own Results tab with ranges of 7d, 30d, and 90d. It charts three series, Sends, Replies, and Backlinks, each with a total and a "best day". Backlinks are split into "{n} from your outreach, {n} found on the site", so you can see what the agent earned versus what already existed.

Be patient with timing. A link is only counted once it exists on the live page and, for index-based counts, once the search index has crawled and recorded it. That can take days to weeks after a site adds your link, which is normal for how indexes work. GenLink does not invent numbers, so a real win only appears here once it can actually be seen.

Reports#

You also get a weekly report on Monday morning and a daily summary in the afternoon, so you do not have to check the dashboard to know how the week is going.
