Public Backlink Checker Report – BizJunket
Use this Public Backlink Checker Report to see which public web pages link to any domain you enter. Type a domain or full URL below, and this page will discover likely mentions across the web and then verify whether a real hyperlink exists on each page.

What this report shows
Referring page URL
Anchor text used in the link
rel attributes such as nofollow, ugc, sponsored
HTTP status of the referring page
A separate list of all discovered candidate pages checked during verification
How it works
Discovery: the tool queries a web search provider to find pages that mention the domain you enter while excluding the domain itself.
Verification: each candidate page is fetched and parsed; if a hyperlink to the target domain is found, it is listed as a verified backlink.
Best effort: results focus on publicly crawlable pages and are not a complete backlink index of the entire web.
Usage tips
Enter a bare domain such as example.com or a full URL.
If you are auditing a brand, run separate checks for the main domain and notable subdomains.
For large sites with many mentions, run multiple checks over time and export results as needed.
Limitations and notes
Some websites block automated fetches or require logins; those will appear as errors or be omitted.
Links added via client-side JavaScript may not be detected if they do not appear in the initial HTML.
For exhaustive historical backlink data, use a commercial index such as Ahrefs, Majestic, Semrush, or Moz.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between discovered candidates and verified backlinks
Discovered candidates are pages that likely mention the domain. Verified backlinks are candidates where a real hyperlink was found during parsing.
Does this tool find every backlink on the internet
No. It is designed for rapid, on-demand discovery and verification of public pages. Comprehensive coverage requires a dedicated backlink index.
Why do some results show nofollow, ugc, or sponsored
Those rel attributes are set by publishers for disclosure and policy compliance. The report displays them so you can assess link type.
Why do some pages show an error or no link even though the page loads in my browser
The site may block automated requests, require scripts to render links, or serve different content to bots. Try again later or verify manually.
Can I search for a specific URL instead of the whole domain
Yes. Enter the full URL to focus discovery on backlinks that reference that exact address.
How recent are the results
The report runs a fresh discovery and verification at the time of your query. It does not rely on a stale cache.
What about subdomains
If subdomains matter to your audit, run separate checks such as blog.example.com and support.example.com.
Why are some obvious backlinks missing
They may be blocked, behind authentication, loaded only via JavaScript, or excluded by the search provider. You can add those URLs to your own list for manual review.
Do I need an API key to use the Public Backlink Checker Report
Yes. Discovery relies on a web search provider. The plugin currently supports Bing Web Search; add your key in wp-admin under Backlink Finder settings.
What happens if the API quota is exceeded
The provider returns an error and the page will show an explanatory message. Increase your plan or try again later.
Does the tool store results in the database
No. It performs on-demand discovery and live verification at view time. Nothing is persisted unless we add an export or caching feature by request.
Will it run automatically on a schedule
No. It’s intentionally on-demand so results are fresh each time. If you want scheduled scans, we can add a WP-Cron job that caches results.
Does it follow redirects when verifying a backlink
Yes. WordPress’s HTTP API follows standard 3xx redirects. The final page HTML is parsed for a real hyperlink to the target domain.
Why do some backlinks with JavaScript not appear
If a link is injected only after client-side rendering, it may not be in the initial HTML and won’t be detected. A headless render mode can be added if you need it.
Can I filter to only dofollow backlinks
Not yet. The report shows rel attributes so you can see nofollow, ugc, and sponsored. We can add a front-end toggle to hide nofollow results.
Can I export results as CSV
Not in this base build. If you need CSV export from the public page, we can add a one-click download.
How many pages does it check per query
You control the “Max candidates” in settings (default 40). Larger values may be slower and consume more API quota.
What’s the verification timeout and can I change it
Default timeout is 20 seconds per page. You can change it in settings if some sites are slow or blocking.
Which PHP extensions are required
The plugin uses the DOM and libxml extensions (commonly provided via the php-xml package). Most hosts have these enabled by default.
Does it respect robots.txt
It makes normal HTTP requests and doesn’t parse robots.txt. Use it responsibly and comply with the target sites’ terms.
Will internationalized domains work
Use the punycode version (e.g., xn--… domain form). Full native Unicode hostnames aren’t supported in the base sanitizer.
Can I search for exact-URL backlinks vs. whole-domain
Yes. Enter the full URL to bias discovery toward pages mentioning that exact address; enter just the domain for broader coverage.
Why do I see “candidate discovered” but “no verified link”
Search results may mention the domain in text without an actual hyperlink, or the page changed since it was indexed, or the site blocks bots.
Can I limit discovery to a country or language
Not in this build. We can add query parameters to bias the provider toward specific locales.
Does it deduplicate multiple links from the same page
Yes. Each referring page appears once; the first detected anchor text is shown.
Can I include custom post types or a custom design
The public output is plain HTML with a small stylesheet handle bjpf-public. You can override styles in your theme or enqueue custom CSS.
How do I prevent abuse on a public page
Add a CAPTCHA or rate-limiting plugin, or we can build a throttle (e.g., per-IP cooldown) and server-side caching.
Can it use other providers like Ahrefs, Majestic, Semrush, or Moz
Yes, via additional provider classes if you have API access. Tell me which providers and I’ll add selectable connectors in settings.
Does noindex on the target site affect results
Noindex on the target or referring page doesn’t block detection if the page is publicly retrievable.
Does the tool check subdomains
By default it looks for the exact host text you enter. Run separate queries for important subdomains (e.g., blog.example.com).
Why do some well-known backlinks not appear
They might be behind a login/paywall, blocked to bots, removed since indexing, or added via JavaScript. Add those pages manually to verify, or extend with another provider.
Is the Public Backlink Checker Report mobile-friendly
Yes. The output is simple, responsive HTML. You can refine styling in your theme for tighter mobile layouts.
