Entry #330 / 700 · Chapter 7 · 7.2 The mainstream third-party stack
In one sentence

A link-intelligence tool focused on deep backlink graph analysis, and the originator of the trust flow and citation flow pair.

Analogy Mental model

An appraisal house that specialises in provenance, telling you not just what an antique is worth but where it has actually been.

In practice What you actually do

Reach for it when evaluating an expiring domain at auction or screening a partner's link history. The decisive view is topical trust flow, which shows which subject categories the domain's links actually cluster in, and whether that matches the site you intend to build.

Where people get burned Pitfalls

A high overall rating means little if the topical breakdown includes gambling, adult, or pharmaceutical categories. That pattern usually indicates the domain was previously used for something you do not want to inherit.
