Goal: To execute a comprehensive SEO Backlink Audit on any website that clearly identifies what’s working, what needs to be fixed, and action steps on what to work on first.
Ideal Outcome: The end-user receives a comprehensive audit that lets them know the state of their current backlink health, along with specific action steps on what to do next.
Prerequisites or requirements: None.
Why this is important: Backlinks are an extremely important ranking factor for Search Engines, you want to make sure you’re taking full advantage of the links you are getting, and are not getting penalized by poor links that you might have acquired throughout the time.
Where this is done: In your browser, Google Docs, Google Sheets, SEMRush and Ahrefs.
When this is done: Periodically, every 3-6 months or when you suspect you might have been penalized due to your link profile.
Who does this: The person responsible for SEO.

**Note: If you don’t have a paid account with SEMRush follow this SOP very closely or you run the risk of running out of reports before you are able to complete the SOP.
**Note 2: SEMRush offers a free 7-day trial on all their plans. If it’s your first time using SEMRush and you are only going to perform one audit, a free trial would be enough to perform this SOP.
