API Documentation


API to check Domains for BlackSEO

This API can be used by website owners to analyze the domain of their own website to check for BlackSEO.

CleanTalk keeps track of domain mentionings in spam messages to help you find out that the incorrect SEO methods are being used. The presence of the domain in spam message links is the cause to contact your SEO company to clarify what promotion methods they use.

  1. This will be useful in the definition of spam in messages if the text messages there is a link with the domain from the list, then with high probability this message is spam.
  2. Also, you can check your domain to make sure that it is not moving with the use of black SEO. Some SEO companies may use black SEO to promote the site and place links using spam. As a result, you will receive a report about the presence of thousands of links, but then you can lose credibility and get penalties from search engines.
  3. When you buying a domain will also be useful to check the history and reputation of the domain. It is quite possible that before the sale of the domain, the domain was promoted by placing links in spam comments.
