You may ask what is this and why should I care? Well for those experienced in the ways of SEO this is a very interesting and unique tool. One thing search engines do is track the velocity of backlinks to any given site. The idea is that if this accelerates very quickly there may be some unnatural manipulation (i.e. paid links) happening and it may need to be checked out. Many times a news article, press releases, blog post, software releases, outside factors like lawsuits, provocative images, etc. etc. can create a very rapid backlinking situation, but in those instances that this is not the case the engines may take action and what may result is a devaluing of all backlinks or possibly even an outright site ban.

If this tools delivers what it is promising, this will give you incredible insight into what the engines are possibly seeing and allow you to throttle your link building efforts to appear as natural as possible.
