## Links placed here

No link placed on shockwave.com has been audited yet. [An audit on bklink.uk](https://bklink.uk/?utm_source=mxverify.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=site-report) checks each one — still there, followed or not, where it sits — and marks this report audited.

This report's link to shockwave.com is nofollow. It is followed when the site's owner audits shockwave.com's own backlinks on bklink.uk, chooses to publish it and proves the site is theirs (for 90 days from each audit), or once a one-time payment of $9 is made for it.

Profiles shockwave.com names for itself, read 09 Nov 2026 · how these are read

The profiles shockwave.com names for itself, in its structured data or linked from its homepage, read 09 Nov 2026. They are the accounts the site points to, not a check of who runs them. A pill opens the sites with a profile on that platform; the arrow opens the profile. Follower counts as of 09 Nov 2026. A tick: the profile's own website field names this site.

Combined followers adds each profile's count: the same person can follow on more than one platform, and YouTube rounds its figure. The donut splits it by platform, each in its brand colour. On since is the year the account began. Posts and videos are all-time totals. All read from each profile page.

Searches, CPC and ad value: Google Ads, worldwide, its latest month, where it has the keyword; † third-party traffic estimates where it does not (the two often differ several times over). Ad value: what a month of the keyword's searches would cost as search ads (searches × cost per click) — what advertisers pay for it, not how hard it is to rank for. Visits (est.): the traffic estimate's own figure for the keyword on this site, which behaves like visits a month, not an amount of money. Each keyword opens the list of sites where it is a top search keyword.

Read from shockwave.com/robots.txt on 9 November 2026. robots.txt is a request that crawlers choose to follow; a site can also refuse crawlers at its server, which this card does not see. Google's AI Overviews use Googlebot, so Google-Extended does not affect them.

Third-party traffic estimates. BV uses only the organic-search figure.

Server and network a CDN edge, shared by unrelated sites

Its domain was registered in 1998.

mxverify looked up shockwave.com's address: it is served through Cloudflare (CDN), a content delivery network. Its address is shared edge infrastructure used by unrelated sites, so it cannot show who else runs on the same server, and sharing the network is no sign of a connection.

Cloudflare (CDN) fronts millions of unrelated sites, so sharing it says nothing about who runs a site. The count is shown; the sites are not listed.

Limitations: what this report does not show 4 stated plainly

- No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
- A CDN address is shared by unrelated sites, so it says nothing about ownership; no neighbours are listed for it.
- shockwave.com gives more than one kind of link (A 1% · B 12% · C 84% · D 3%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $507 and a guest or sponsored one $254, before relevance.
- shockwave.com's visits fell 13% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Half of Site Strength is organic search traffic, so a fall that lasts lowers BV when the figure is next read.
