We’re building a live auction feed and need to enrich a large volume of domains with SEO-style metrics (e.g. backlinks, referring domains, authority/trust-type scores, etc.) so buyers can quickly evaluate names.
Right now we’re already doing around 10 million API requests per month across various domains — and this will likely increase as we expand coverage and add more marketplaces.
Price is the biggest factor.
We currently use Majestic, but we’ve outgrown our existing agreement by 10x+, so we’re looking for more scalable and affordable options (or smarter approaches).
What API services do you use/recommend for pulling backlink + authority metrics at this kind of volume?
Bonus points if you can share:
Any advice from people running high-volume domain tools would be hugely appreciated.

Bonus points if you can share:
- what you’re paying (even rough ranges are helpful)
- reliability/coverage at scale
- bulk endpoints / batching options
- rate limits you’ve hit in real life
- cost-saving tactics (caching, refresh frequency, prefetching, etc.)
