Get site explorer linked anchors external

The site-explorer-linked-anchors-external endpoint retrieves data about external anchor texts linking to a specified target website. this tool is essential for analyzing the backlink profile of a domain, understanding the context in which other sites are linking to it, and identifying potential seo opportunities or issues. it provides insights into the most common anchor texts used in external links, which can help in assessing the website's perceived topical relevance and authority. use this endpoint when you need to analyze the external link profile of a website, conduct competitor research, or identify potential link-building opportunities. note that this tool focuses solely on external links and does not provide information about internal linking structures or other on-page seo factors.

Why this helps

Inspect external anchor text for a site otherwise requires leaving Telegram, reopening Ahrefs, and reconstructing the original context.

  • Retrieve external anchor texts for relevance and concentration review from the source context.
  • Keep the analysis and its caveat in the Telegram run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Ahrefs to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Ask Notis to create this automation, or open Automations → New Automation and enter a name plus this prompt: “When a Telegram message provides a domain with a link-profile question, use Ahrefs to retrieve external anchor texts for relevance and concentration review. Report the result in Telegram with the source target and a short interpretation. Anchor text alone cannot establish link quality or penalties. Ignore unrelated messages.”
  • 3Select the Telegram New Message Received trigger and choose Telegram as the run-report channel.
  • 4Test with one real Telegram message containing a domain with a link-profile question; review the Ahrefs result and the stated limitation.
