Self-hosted alternatives to Majestic

Majestic is a hosted backlink analysis service built on its own link index and the Trust Flow and Citation Flow metrics. One listed app does its main job and runs in your own Cloudflare account.

Each answer comes from the app’s README and source code, compared with the features Majestic describes on its own site.

  • OpenSEO Keyword Research with keyword volumes, CPC and intent, a search trend chart and SERP analysis

    Pay-as-you-go keyword research, rank tracking and site audits on your Cloudflare account, with an MCP server for agents

What a Majestic user would miss
It has no Trust Flow metrics or bulk backlink checking; it covers separate historic index and side-by-side link history only in part.
  • Yes Site Explorer for backlinks and domains. Backlinks and referring domains for any domain.
  • No Trust Flow and Citation Flow. Domain and link authority and spam score instead.
  • Partly Fresh and historic link indexes. First seen and lost flags; no separate historic index.
  • Partly Backlink history over time. New and lost backlinks chart, first seen dates; no side-by-side history.
  • No Bulk backlink checker. One domain at a time.
  • Partly Link context and anchor text. Anchor text shown; no link context scoring.
  • Partly API. MCP server and agent skills; no REST API found.
