Why it matters
Why check your backlinks?
Links from other websites remain one of the strongest signals search engines use to decide which pages rank. Knowing who links to you shows how much authority your site has, which pages attract links, and where your profile is weaker than the sites above you.
Regular checks also catch problems early: links that have been removed, sudden spikes from low-quality sites, or an anchor text mix that looks unnatural.
Checking competitors is just as useful. Their referring domains are a ready-made list of publishers already willing to link in your niche.
FAQ
Backlink checker questions.
Is the backlink checker really free?
Yes. There is no sign-up, no card and no trial. Enter a domain or URL and the report runs straight away.
What is a backlink?
A link on another website that points to yours. Search engines read links from relevant, trusted sites as a sign your page deserves to rank.
Why are referring domains more important than backlinks?
Ten links from one site count for far less than one link each from ten different sites. Referring domains show how widely you are cited.
Where does the data come from?
Results come from a third-party link index that crawls the web continuously. Figures can differ slightly from other SEO tools, which each run their own crawler.
How often is the data updated?
The index is refreshed daily. Very new links can take a few days to appear.
Can I check a competitor?
Yes. Any public domain or URL can be checked, which is the quickest way to see where competitors earn their links.
