What Is Linking Domains?

Linking Domains counts how many unique domains have one or more links to your website. Linking domains is an important metric because it shows how widely connected a website is. 1000 backlinks from 1000 different domains gives a site much more authority than 1000 backlinks all from the same domain.

We use data from the Majestic SEO backlink database to report the linking domains metrics in our SEO Toolbar.
