Backlinks are crucial for measuring a website's authority in search engines. With the Ubersuggest Chrome Extension, you can quickly view key metrics like domain authority, estimated visits, organic keywords, and backlinks directly in Google Search results, making your SEO tasks quicker and easier.
But you may notice that the backlink numbers in the Ubersuggest Chrome Extension don't match those in Ubersuggest. Here’s why.
Page-Specific vs. Domain-Wide Backlinks
The Ubersuggest Chrome Extension shows the number of backlinks for just the specific page you see in the Google search results. For example, if that page has 100 backlinks, that’s the number you’ll see in the extension.
In contrast, Ubersuggest shows the total number of backlinks for the entire website, not just one page. This is why the backlink count in Ubersuggest is typically higher.
Why This Difference Matters
The Ubersuggest Chrome Extension is great for quickly checking the authority of individual pages, especially when doing competitive analysis. It gives you fast, page-level insights without leaving Google Search.
On the other hand, Ubersuggest is perfect for a deeper dive, showing you a website’s complete backlink profile.
In short, the extension provides quick, page-specific backlink data, while Ubersuggest offers a full view of a website’s backlinks. Understanding this difference helps you use both tools more effectively in your SEO strategy.
