Selection conditions
Thresholds for domain metrics and archived snapshots
The "Selection conditions" panel consists of two groups, each with its own period over which the data is counted.
The "Domain metrics" group
- DR — minimum Domain Rating (required).
- Total backlinks — minimum backlinks over the domain's entire lifetime, regardless of the chosen period (required).
- Backlinks — minimum backlinks over the chosen period; the second field is the minimum total traffic of the referring sites. The condition counts as filled in if either of the two fields is set (required).
- EDU, GOV, UNI, AC — optional thresholds for links from educational and government domains; for each you can set a link count and traffic.
The "Domain history" group
- Total snapshots — minimum number of archived snapshots over the period. The field carries the "Required" marker, but the condition is also satisfied by a threshold on any status code below: it is enough to fill in either "Total snapshots" or at least one code.
- The status-code grid 200, 301, 302, 404, 500, 502, 503 — the minimum number of snapshots with each code. For example, "200 ≥ 10" means at least ten snapshots where the site responded successfully.
Required fields are marked. The hint line at the bottom shows in advance what is missing: "Not filled in: …". The "Create task" button stays active, but the launch window will not open — instead, the message "Please fill in the required conditions: …" appears and stays until you adjust any condition. The button becomes disabled only while no valid domain has been added or when there are more domains than your limit.
Frequently used condition sets are worth saving as presets.
