We’ve been a bit quiet on the blogging front recently, but that’s because we’re hard at work on some great new features that we’d love to tell you about.
Quality Score
Some of you may have noticed that we’ve added little rollover labels to both site pages and backlinks.
What is it?
Good question. In order to give our users more flexibility when acquiring backlinks, we have developed an algorithm for calculating the overall quality of a page in the system. It’s still in BETA at the moment, but the calculation is made by taking a few factors into account, including the number of outgoing links on the page (not just Automatic Backlinks ones), the number of times the page has been rejected and more.
How will it affect me?
At the moment, we are displaying the score purely for informational purposes. Page owners can get an idea of how their pages rank for quality, and campaign owners can now make better decisions when reviewing their backlinks. Please note that we’re still tweaking the Quality Score, so don’t take the numbers too literally just yet!
What will you use it for?
Once we’ve got the Quality Score algorithm nailed down, we’ll be putting it to use to adjust the actual Link Credit value of pages and backlinks. Up until now, our only metric for valuing the price of a link has been its PageRank score. Quality Score will change this, enabling campaign owners to get the most out of their Link Credit, while at the same time rewarding page owners who add high quality pages with more Link Credit.
This will also serve to increase the overall quality of Automatic Backlinks by giving page owners a great incentive to acheive a higher score for their pages.
We would love to hear your thoughts and feedback on Quality Score. Let us know in the comments!

Thank you for the good work that you are doing in increasing the traffic to our websites.
There are alway’s a lot of links on a WordPress site in the sidebar, this effects the quality? but 90% of the links are internal how is this covered?
Does the web site traffic will increase?
Does the web site traffic will increase? ??
This works REALLY well. I would recommend it to anyone. I have been using for over a year now and not had any problems. p.s. I do not work for the company, I am an seo and use this on 4 of my clients sites.
This is a 6 months old post. Does this feature -i.e. algorithm based not only on PR but eg. outgoing links from subpages work, or is the old version still in use?
Since the alogorhithm is constantly changing good techniques are hit or miss these days. I wonder if the constant change is on purpose?
Does using your website increase my website’s traffic?
Good idea, but all internal links starting with http://…. is calculated as external link!!! Be careful with this score…
