The actual linking pages, not just a total
Enter a domain or URL and this pulls up to 25 real pages that link to it, straight from Moz's Links API - each row shows the linking page's own URL, the anchor text used in the link, that page's Domain Authority, and whether the link is follow (passes SEO credit) or nofollow (doesn't). If you only need the summary numbers rather than the individual links, the companion Backlink Checker tool on this site gives you that faster.
Why follow vs. nofollow matters
A nofollow link includes an HTML attribute that tells search engines not to pass ranking credit through it. It can still send you real visitors and build real brand visibility, but it generally doesn't directly contribute to SEO authority the way a follow link does - which is why this tool surfaces that distinction on every single link rather than lumping them together.
Why results are capped at 25 and sorted by authority
Showing every single backlink a popular site has would be unwieldy and slow, so results are capped at 25 per check and sorted by the linking page's own Domain Authority - the links from the strongest, most authoritative sources appear first. A site with a larger link profile than that will have additional backlinks beyond what's shown here.
What this is useful for
Auditing who actually links to your own site (and whether any look spammy or unwanted), researching where a competitor is getting their backlinks to find similar opportunities for your own content, or simply confirming a specific expected backlink actually went live and is follow rather than nofollow.
