ABOUT THIS TOOL
Analyze the domains that link to your website with the WaooTools Referring Domains Checker. Review referring domains found in the available backlink data and understand how many different websites are linking to your domain. This can help with backlink analysis, SEO audits, and competitor research.
How to Use the Referring Domains Checker

- Review the referring domains shown in the results.
- Use the data to evaluate your website's backlink profile.
What Are Referring Domains?
Referring domains are unique websites or domains that contain one or more backlinks pointing to your website.
For example, if five different pages on one website link to your domain, that website generally counts as one referring domain, even though it may provide multiple backlinks.
Referring domains are different from total backlinks because backlinks count individual links, while referring domains count the unique domains providing those links.
What Does This Tool Check?
The Referring Domains Checker can help you:
- Find domains linking to your website
- Review unique referring domains
- Analyze your backlink profile
- Identify domains providing backlinks
- Compare referring domain patterns
- Support SEO and backlink audits
Why Check Referring Domains?
Checking referring domains helps you understand the diversity of websites linking to your domain. A backlink profile can contain many backlinks but come from only a small number of websites, so reviewing referring domains provides another way to evaluate your link profile.
This information can be useful for backlink research, competitor analysis, and monitoring your website's off-page SEO.
Important Limitations
Referring domain data depends on the backlink database used by the tool. Results may not include every website linking to your domain, and some data may be missing, delayed, or outdated.
Different backlink providers may report different numbers because they use different crawling and indexing systems. The results should be treated as an SEO research signal rather than a complete list of all referring domains.
Data Source
Referring domain and backlink information on this page is supplied by Moz. Data coverage depends on Moz's backlink index and crawling processes.
