Backlink Checker
Check the domain signals a link audit starts from: live DNS resolution, IP footprint and Moz-derived authority and spam scores for any public domain.
Enter a domain to run the lookup. Nothing is fetched until you press Check.
🌐 Name Resolution (queried live)
| Hostname | Resolves | IPv4 | IPv6 |
|---|
Multiple IPv4 addresses usually mean a load-balanced or CDN-fronted host. A missing AAAA record means the site is not reachable over IPv6.
📊 Authority Metrics
| Metric | Value | Source |
|---|
🔎 What The Name Itself Shows
These are structural observations about the hostname. They are not ranking factors and do not predict authority on their own.
⚠️ What This Page Cannot Tell You
Backlink data lives in a crawl index. A browser page cannot enumerate who links to a domain, so no link counts, anchor texts or dofollow ratios are shown here — and any tool that displays those numbers without naming a link index is guessing.
- Your own links, free and exact: Google Search Console → Links report → "Top linked pages" and "Top linking sites", plus the export button. It only covers your verified property.
- Any third-party domain: a commercial index — Ahrefs, Semrush, Moz Link Explorer or Majestic (Trust Flow / Citation Flow, anchor text included).
- Link quality checks you can do here today: compare the DA/PA/Spam figures above, then open the referring page in a new tab and confirm the link exists, is editorial and points at the right URL.
Next steps on this site: Domain Authority Checker for batch DA lookups, Domain Age Checker for registration dates, and Broken Link Checker to audit links you already own.
How to Use Backlink Checker
Follow these simple steps to get the best results.
Enter a domain
Type example.com or paste a full URL — the scheme, path, query and port are stripped down to the bare hostname automatically.
Run live lookups
The tool resolves the domain and its www host through DNS and fetches DA, PA and Spam Score from the server-side metrics lookup.
Read the verified report
Review IPv4 and IPv6 records, hostname structure and authority scores; anything the lookups did not return is shown as "—", never estimated.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Backlink Checker.
About the Backlink Checker Tool
Before you judge a link opportunity you need to know the domain is real, reachable and not flagged. The ToolFlic Backlink Checker resolves the domain and its www host through live DNS, reports every IPv4 and IPv6 address returned, notes the hostname structure and fetches third-party authority scores (DA, PA and Spam Score). What it deliberately does not do is invent link counts: enumerating who links to a domain needs a crawl index, so this page tells you plainly which numbers to pull from Google Search Console or a commercial index instead.
Core Advantages
Filter bad outreach targets in seconds: an unresolvable host, a missing IPv6 record, a bare domain that only answers on www, or a high spam score all show up here before you write a single email. It also gives SEO beginners an honest picture of what a free browser tool can verify and where real backlink data actually lives, so expectations stay realistic.
Architecture & Security
Two server-side lookups run in parallel: a DNS resolution query returning A and AAAA records, and a metrics query returning the Moz scale DA, PA and Spam Score for the root domain. Results are labelled with their source, unavailable values render as "—", and no metric is derived from a hash or a stored sample dataset.
Under the Hood: the Backlink Checker explained properly
No marketing filler — just the mechanics, the trade-offs and the real limits, explained clearly.
How it actually works
Despite the name it is a domain-lookup utility, not a backlink index. It strips any scheme, path, query and port down to the bare hostname, then runs two server-side lookups in parallel: a DNS resolution that returns the A and AAAA records for the domain and its www host, and a metrics query that returns third-party Domain Authority, Page Authority and Moz Spam Score for the root domain.
What that means for your results
Every figure on the report is one a lookup actually returned. The IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are the real records, while DA and PA sit on a one-to-hundred scale and Spam Score as a percentage, taken from a Moz-derived source and only as current as that source is. When a lookup answers nothing for a field the card shows a dash, never a number guessed from a hash or a saved sample.
Where it falls short — honestly
It cannot list who links to a domain, nor anchor text, dofollow or nofollow ratios, referring-domain counts or a link timeline, because those live inside a large crawl index that no browser tool maintains. Google Search Console exposes the links to your own site, and a commercial index is needed for anyone else. Treat the three scores as one provider estimate, not a Google signal.
A real end-to-end workflow
Paste a domain or a full URL and read the resolved IP footprint first, since an unresolvable host or a missing IPv6 record is a reachability problem on its own. Cross-check the Spam Score before any outreach, then confirm real link data through Domain Authority Checker for a shortlist, Domain Age Checker for registration history, and Domain to IP when you only need the addresses.
