Your own SEO data key

Use your own SEO data key

Connect your own Majestic, Ahrefs, Moz or DataForSEO key, and the authority metrics for your domains are fetched on your key and your quota rather than ours. We check the key before we save it.

What it is

If you already subscribe to an SEO data provider, you can put that subscription to work here. Connect its API key in Integrations and the authority metrics for your domains are fetched with it.

The requests run against your account with the provider, so they count against your plan's quota and the provider bills you under your own agreement.

What you get

Your subscription, used where you already work.

Four providers

Majestic, Ahrefs, Moz and DataForSEO.

Your key, your quota

Metrics are fetched with the key you connected, so they draw on your own plan with the provider.

Checked before it is saved

The key is tested with the provider before anything is stored, and a key the provider refuses is not saved.

Stored encrypted, deleted on disconnect

A key that passes is kept encrypted in our secrets vault, and disconnecting deletes it.

Step-by-step guides

Each guide shows where to create the key on the provider's side, what it needs, and how to connect it in the dashboard.

How it works

Three steps from the key you already have.

  1. Copy your API key

    Copy the API key from your Majestic, Ahrefs, Moz or DataForSEO account.

  2. Connect it in Integrations

    Paste it in. It is tested with the provider before it is saved.

  3. Fetch metrics on your key

    Authority metrics for your domains are then fetched on your own key and quota.

Pricing

Using your own SEO data key is not an add-on.

We charge nothing for the connection. Your SEO data provider bills you directly, under your own plan, for the requests made with your key. Your Zinn Digital® hosting plan is billed as normal.

Each request counts against your quota with the provider, at the provider's prices. We never add to them.

Why it is built this way

An SEO data subscription is often one of a team's larger tool bills, and paying twice for the same metrics makes no sense. Using the key you already hold means the dashboard draws on data you have already paid for.

It also means the numbers come from the provider you trust, within the limits of the plan you chose.

Questions people ask before they buy

Which providers are supported?

Majestic, Ahrefs, Moz and DataForSEO.

Whose quota do the requests use?

Yours. Metrics are fetched with the key you connected, so every request counts against your own plan with that provider.

Do you charge for this?

No. The connection costs nothing from us. Your provider bills you under your own agreement, and your hosting plan is billed as normal.

How is my key stored?

It is tested with the provider before saving, stored encrypted in our secrets vault, and deleted when you disconnect.

Which metrics are fetched?

Domain authority metrics from the provider you connected — the figures that provider publishes for a domain, under its own names and scales.
