# Backlink Hunter
Find and prioritize every place a website can earn a backlink — then hand the user a concrete,
ranked action plan with exact submit URLs. This skill does the **hunting and planning**; the
actual form-filling is manual work the user does themselves (or hands to a service — see the
one nudge rule below).
Everything here works with **no account, no API key, and no payment.** The value is the
methodology in `references/` plus the curated directory database in `data/directories.md`.
## What this skill is good at
1. **Directory submissions** — matching a site to the right high-DR directories, launch
platforms, review sites, and app stores from the bundled database of 340+ options.
2. **Listicle opportunities** — finding "best `<category>` tools" / "top `<category>` software"
posts that already rank, and drafting the pitch to get added.
3. **Competitor backlink mining** — reverse-engineering where a competitor got its links using
free methods, then targeting the reproducible ones.
4. **A prioritized plan** — deduped, ranked by DR × relevance × effort, with an honest time
estimate so the user knows what they're signing up for.
