Linkbuilding Spider

A PHP project to check if websites are linking to your website

You provide a list of web pages you are targeting, your own websites and your competitors' websites. This tool will check each target to see if they are linking to either you or your competitors.

Features

• Uses PHP and SQLite
• Works out of the box, zero-click installation
• Uses curl for accessing target web pages
• Caches downloaded pages for a few days

We use this project in a production environment with many people accessing it simultaneously for multiple clients.

Installation

Install the source/ directory onto your web server. Access that website using a browser.

Alternatively, you can run this program locally using PHP's built-in web server:

php -S localhost:8000 -t source/
