How to Find Out How Many Websites Link to Your Site?

I’m sure you’re all curious about which websites contain links to your site! Here I’ll show you how to search with the link syntax. It’s a Google operator that lists the websites that link to your site, and note that the unit here is websites, not pages, so let Ting-feng walk you through this syntax!

Syntax:
link:URL

Replace URL with your site's domain, without "http://"

After seeing the syntax above, you’re probably thinking:Okay, the syntax is simple, but where do I paste it to run it?

Haha, it’s even simpler than that.

First, open the Google search engine, then type the syntax into the search box and search.

Then you’ll see Google list the websites that link to your site.

You can also check the “results” count in the upper right corner.
