Backlink Finder
Backlinks are links from other websites to yours. They are one of the most important Google ranking factors. The Backlink Finder helps you discover opportunities to build your link profile.
What Are Backlinks?
When another website links to your content, that is a backlink. Google sees backlinks as "votes of confidence" — the more quality sites link to you, the more authority your site has.
Using the Backlink Finder
Open the Tool
Go to Backlinks in the sidebar.
Enter a Domain
Enter your own domain or a competitor's domain to analyze their backlink profile.
Review Results
See the linking domains, anchor text used, and link quality. Look for patterns in where competitors are getting links.
Find Opportunities
Identify sites that link to competitors but not to you. These are your best link-building opportunities.
