Semrush backlink report template

Four pages: Start here, Overview, Referring domains and Top pages. Overview shows Authority Score, backlinks, referring domains and follow links, with backlinks and referring domains by week. Referring domains shows your top 50 referring domains and top 25 anchors. Top pages shows your 25 most-linked pages with their status.

Add Semrush as a data source in Datapipe with your Semrush API key and your domain. The Backlinks API uses Semrush API units from your Semrush plan. Then create this dashboard and authorize Google Sheets separately. Datapipe prepares five worksheets (Backlink profile, Backlinks over time, Referring domains, Anchors and Top linked pages) and a copy link that replaces all five report sources. Save your private Data Studio report; scheduled refreshes update the same workbook.

Semrush’s current backlink profile for your root domain (Authority Score, backlinks, referring domains, referring IPs, follow and nofollow links), backlinks and referring domains by week for about six months, your top 50 referring domains with their Authority Score, country and first and last seen dates, your top 25 anchors, and your 25 most-linked pages with their HTTP status. Each refresh uses about 5,080 Semrush API units, so the dashboard refreshes weekly.

No. Each tool scores authority its own way, so the dashboard keeps the tool’s own score and names it. Compare scores from the same tool over time rather than across tools.

The lists show the top referring domains, anchors and pages only. The total counts every link the tool found, including links from domains outside the top of the list.

The template, editable Data Studio copy, PDF and CSV are free. You need a Google account to save a copy. Datapipe plans apply when you connect and refresh your own data.
