Backlink Checker
Analyze the backlink profile of any website and discover who links to you.
Analyze backlinks for any website
Backlinks are the web's "votes of confidence." When a site links to yours, it tells Google: "this content is worth recommending." That's why backlinks remain one of Google's top three ranking factors.
Our backlink checker gives you a full view of inbound links for any site. Analyze your own link profile or spy on competitors — both uses are equally important.
What you can analyze
- Total backlink count — how many links point to the site
- Referring domains — the number of different sites linking (more important than total count)
- Link quality — identify links from high-authority sites vs spam
- Anchor texts — the words used in links (important for ranking on those terms)
How to use it
- Enter the domain or specific URL to analyze
- Click "Check" to run the analysis
- Browse the backlink list, sorted by authority
3 ways to use this data
1. Audit your own profile
Check your backlinks regularly. If you find links from spammy sites, disavow them in Google Search Console.
2. Spy on competitors
Enter a competitor's domain to discover their link sources. Sites linking to them could link to you too — this is the foundation of link prospecting.
3. Evaluate potential partnerships
Before accepting a link exchange or guest post, check the partner's backlink profile. Lots of spam links is a red flag.

FAQ
How many backlinks do I need to rank?
There's no magic number. Quality matters most: 5 backlinks from DA 50+ sites are worth more than 500 spam links. Analyze backlinks of page 1 sites for your target keywords — that's your real benchmark.
Are nofollow backlinks useless?
No. Nofollow links don't directly pass SEO juice, but they add diversity to your link profile (a 100% dofollow profile looks suspicious), referral traffic, and brand awareness. A healthy backlink profile has a natural mix of both.
