Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Backlinks Monitor (the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“User,” “you,” or “your”) and WEB MEDIA SOLUTIONS LLC (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Service after modifications constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. You are responsible for reviewing these Terms periodically.

2. Service Description

Backlinks Monitor is a professional backlink monitoring and analysis platform designed to help website owners, SEO professionals, and digital marketers track, analyze, and manage their backlink profiles. Our Service includes the following core features:

2.1 Backlink Discovery

Our Discovery feature automatically identifies and catalogs new backlinks pointing to your website. Using advanced crawling technology and multiple data sources, we scan the web continuously to detect when new websites link to your domain. Discovery runs on a scheduled basis according to your subscription plan, with new backlinks typically appearing in your dashboard within 24-72 hours of being indexed by search engines.

2.2 Automated 24/7 Monitoring

All backlinks added to your account are automatically monitored around the clock without manual intervention. Our monitoring system:

• Checks backlink status at regular intervals based on your subscription tier
• Verifies that links remain active and accessible (HTTP status code 200)
• Confirms that your target URL is still present on the linking page
• Detects changes to link attributes (nofollow/dofollow status)
• Tracks redirect chains and canonical URL changes
• Monitors anchor text modifications

Monitoring Calculation: Each backlink check counts as one monitoring credit. The frequency of automatic checks depends on your subscription plan (e.g., daily, every 3 days, weekly). If a backlink is found to be inactive or missing, our system performs two additional verification checks within 24 hours before marking it as “lost” to avoid false positives caused by temporary server issues.

2.3 Manual Check

The Manual Check feature allows you to instantly verify the status of any backlink in your account on-demand, outside of the automated monitoring schedule. This is useful when you need immediate confirmation after requesting link placements or when investigating suspicious activity. Each manual check consumes one monitoring credit from your monthly allocation.

2.4 Force Indexing

Force Indexing is an advanced feature that submits your backlink URLs to search engines for faster indexing. When you activate Force Indexing for a backlink:

• We submit the linking page URL to major search engine indexing APIs
• The page is queued for priority crawling by search engine bots
• You receive indexing status updates in your dashboard
• The process typically accelerates indexing from weeks to days

Force Indexing does not guarantee immediate indexing, as final indexing decisions are made by search engines based on their own algorithms and quality guidelines. This feature is subject to availability limits per subscription plan.

2.5 Monitoring Credits System

Your subscription includes a monthly allocation of monitoring credits. Credits are consumed as follows:

• Automatic Monitoring: 1 credit per scheduled check per backlink
• Manual Check: 1 credit per on-demand verification
• Force Indexing: 5 credits per indexing request (subject to plan availability)

Unused credits do not roll over to the next billing cycle. If you exceed your monthly credit allocation, additional credits can be purchased through your account dashboard or you may upgrade to a higher-tier plan.

3. Subscription Plans and Billing

3.1 Subscription Tiers

We offer multiple subscription plans with varying features, backlink limits, and monitoring credit allocations. All plan details, including pricing and features, are displayed on our pricing page at the time of purchase. By subscribing, you agree to the specific terms of your selected plan.

3.2 Billing Cycles

Subscriptions are available on monthly or annual billing cycles. Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle unless you cancel before the renewal date. Annual subscriptions are billed in one payment at the beginning of the annual period.

3.3 Automatic Renewal

All subscriptions automatically renew at the end of the current billing period. You will be charged using your selected payment method on file. We will send you a reminder email at least 7 days before each renewal date. You may disable auto-renewal or cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings.

3.4 Free Trials

If you register for a free trial, you will have access to limited features for the trial period specified at registration. No payment method is required during the trial unless stated otherwise. When the trial period ends, you must subscribe to a paid plan to continue using the Service. We reserve the right to limit free trial availability and to refuse free trial access to users who have previously used free trials or who we suspect are abusing the trial system.

3.5 Plan Changes

You may upgrade or downgrade your subscription plan at any time through your account dashboard. Upgrades take effect immediately, and you will be charged a prorated amount for the remainder of your current billing cycle. Downgrades take effect at the start of your next billing cycle. If you downgrade to a plan with fewer backlink slots or credits than you are currently using, you may need to remove excess backlinks or your account may operate in a limited capacity until the next billing cycle.
