Hey there!
Don't get too hung up on backlinks appearing (or not) there can be a few reasons for this. Don't forget crawling the web takes a lot of power and Roger can only get so far and so often, Google has a bit more power to get further so it's likely to find links more often and faster than other crawlers. Do they might be there and not visible on a tool.
Secondly, if the value of a backlink is there e.g. the value to a user that is the complete purpose of a backlink more so than anything else. Keep on working and you might find them come up over time, you can always look in Search engine console and you might discover them in there too!
The link you gave unfortunately 404s so as long as all your links are working I'm sure it will be a ok, you can always keep a list somewhere of them to manually check. it can take weeks depending on the DA/PA of the site.
Hope some of that puts your mind at ease and keep on creating links and you'll get there before you know it
edit I'd also ensure you've ticked all boxes on your site, check if its https

Good/Bad Backlinks - Penalties
Just a quick question from someone that is extremely new to this: If "G" penalizes sites for bad backlinks (low quality, spammy) then why are people not building these types of links towards the competitors that are currently outranking them? Or are they? and if they are, is it beneficial? (are your competitors dropping in rankings?) Seems like a fair question.... Any insight is appreciated

Can You Rank Without Backlinking?
With all the new emphasis on on-page metrics and social metrics, would it be possible to rank well without putting much emphasis on backlinking if your content is significantly better than the rest of the ranking pages? Say #1 to #5 are pages of 500 word generic content. We come in with 2,000 word specific, high-quality content. Can we get by without spending as much time/energy on backlinking? Would the on-page factors make up for it, or has the game not changed that much?
