Domain and page backlinks

[ShivFriv77]

Hello Everyone,

I am new at SEO, and I am a bit confused with the following situation:

• I have domain, wordpress site on it, and I am building backlinks to it (testing). I do not have "home" page among pages in wordpress, if it means anything. When I build links, i use different anchor texts, but they all point to http://somethingsomething.net

-Ahrefs shows that I have 830 backlinks from 45 domains, to my URL, which is http://somethingsomething.net (it is also my site's home page address)

-MOZ;s Open site explorer, on the other hand, shows the following: 8 internal links and 0 external links for page specific metrics, and 878 total links 0 external for root domain metrics.

-Google Webmaster tools shows 10 external links pointing to my site

Please can someone explain to me what is happening here?

Thanks a lot

No backlink checker is perfect, unfortunately. Nobody has the resource of Google to crawl the entire web (even Google only crawls a section of it). In my experience Majestic & AHREFs have the largest backlink counts, and Moz can show some of your newer links through their "Recently Discovered" tab. If you can afford them all, it's best to combine data from all sources and de-dupe them.

Bing Webmaster Tools can provide some additional backlink data as well.

Each back link checker has it's own crawlers and therefore they will show different results. Majestic Seo shows 0 links for the site, another example of everyone having their own link index database.

Google webmaster tools usually only shows a sample of actual links.
