What our Backlink Checker analyzes

Backlink Overview

Complete list of all backlinks with source URL, target URL, anchor text, and link attributes. See at a glance how many links point to your website and from which domains they come. Filter by DoFollow, NoFollow, or UGC links to understand your link profile composition.

Domain Authority

Quality rating of linking domains based on their own authority and trust. High-quality backlinks from authoritative websites carry more weight than many links from weak domains. We show you the Domain Authority score of each linking website so you can prioritize your efforts.

Anchor Text Analysis

Overview of all anchor texts used with frequency distribution. A natural anchor text profile is important for SEO - too many exact keyword matches can be seen as manipulation by search engines. We show you the distribution and warn of any anomalies that could trigger penalties.

New & Lost Links

Track newly gained and lost backlinks over time. See which links were recently added and which were lost. Lost links from important domains should be investigated and potentially recovered through outreach. Monitor your link velocity for healthy growth.

Competitor Comparison

Compare your link profile with your competitors. Find domains that link to competitors but not to you - potential link sources for your outreach campaigns. Analyze the link building strategies of successful competitors and identify gaps in your own profile.

Toxic Links

Identification of potentially harmful backlinks from spam websites, link farms, or thematically irrelevant sources. These links can harm your ranking and should be disavowed through Google's Disavow Tool. We assess the risk level of each suspicious link.

Frequently Asked Questions

Backlinks are links from other websites that point to your website. They are considered recommendations and are one of the most important ranking factors for Google. The more high-quality, relevant websites that link to you, the more trustworthy your website appears to search engines. Quality matters more than quantity - one link from an authoritative website in your industry is more valuable than hundreds of links from low-quality sources.

DoFollow links pass link equity and directly influence your ranking positively. NoFollow links have a rel='nofollow' attribute telling search engines not to count the recommendation. NoFollow links are still valuable as they bring traffic and contribute to a natural link profile. A healthy ratio is approximately 70-80% DoFollow to 20-30% NoFollow.

Harmful backlinks typically come from spam websites, link farms, thematically irrelevant pages, or websites with very low domain authority. Links with over-optimized anchor text or from websites in suspicious languages can also be problematic. Our tool evaluates each link and marks potentially toxic backlinks that you should disavow in Google Search Console.

Effective link building is based on high-quality content that naturally attracts links. Strategies include: creating studies and infographics, guest posts on relevant blogs, broken link building, converting unlinked mentions into links, PR and press work, and industry directories. Avoid buying links or link exchange schemes as these violate Google guidelines and can result in penalties.

We recommend monthly review of your link profile. This helps you detect negative SEO attacks early, identify lost important links, or spot unnatural growth patterns. After active link building campaigns, you should check more frequently. Set up alerts to be notified of significant changes automatically.

Domain Authority (DA) is a score from 0-100 developed by Moz that predicts the ranking strength of a website. The higher the DA, the more valuable a backlink from that domain. The score is based on factors like quantity and quality of the domain's own backlinks, domain age, and content quality. A link from a DA-80 website is significantly more valuable than from a DA-20 website.
