        Hi Katrine

        For "Number of Domains Linking to this Page" it will be to the page in the Target URL column.

        For "Number of Domains Linking to Domain" it will be the domain in the Target URL column.

        I hope that helps,
        Peter

          Hey Katrine,

          Thanks for writing in and sorry for the confusion. The "Number of Domains Linking to this Page" and "Number of Domains Linking to Domain" in the CSV you downloaded actually refer to the URL that is linking back to your site. This information is provided so you can have some insight into the quality of links that are referring back to the page you are researching.

          I hope this clears things up. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

          Chiaryn

            • Why is Link Explorer showing the same domain strength for domain and sub-domain? Shouldn't it be different?
