Manage your outreach blocklist from Claude
Some sites should never get a pitch from you: competitors, partners you talk to directly, a publication you're already negotiating with, or a site that asked you to stop.
Tell your assistant once and those domains go on your blocklist. The agent skips them in every run and import from then on.
The prompt
Paste this into Claude and change the details to fit.
Add these domains to my BacklinkGenie blocklist: notion.so, obsidian.md, our partner readwise.io. Then skip any current prospects on those sites.
What happens
-
1
Block domains
add_to_blocklist adds domains the agent must never contact, for that site.
-
2
Skip single prospects
skip_prospect removes one prospect from the list without blocking the whole domain.
-
3
Check the report
get_prospect_report shows what's left, so you can confirm nothing blocked is still queued.
Add these domains to my BacklinkGenie blocklist: notion.so, obsidian.md, our partner readwise.io. Then skip any current prospects on those sites.
Added 3 domains to your blocklist. One current prospect was on readwise.io; I skipped it, so it won't be pitched. The agent will ignore all three in future runs and imports.
Tips
- Block competitors' domains on day one, so their own blogs never get a pitch.
- Use skip for "not this post" and block for "never this site".
- The blocklist is on the Growth and Agency plans. A built-in never-contact list (major platforms, government sites and similar) applies to everyone.

Same rules as the dashboard
Claude works on the same account, sites and mailboxes as the BacklinkGenie dashboard. Pitches wait for approval unless you've turned on Autopilot, every edit goes through the quality check, and sending stays inside each mailbox's daily limit. See how BacklinkGenie works or compare plans.
Questions people ask
Does BacklinkGenie block anything by default?
Yes. There's a built-in list of domains we never pitch, plus anyone who has unsubscribed or asked not to be contacted. Your blocklist adds to it.
Can I unblock a domain?
Yes. Open Prospects → Blocklist in the dashboard and remove it.
Do I need an API key to use BacklinkGenie from Claude?
No. In Claude you add BacklinkGenie with its URL and sign in. MCP access is on the Growth and Agency plans.
