How strong are the links
behind a website?
Site Strength is Rankfield’s 0–100 score for a domain’s link strength. It considers how many websites link to a domain, who those websites are, and how they connect to the wider web. A higher score means a stronger link profile according to our method.
If you’ve used Ahrefs’ Domain Rating or Moz’s Domain Authority, the idea will feel familiar. Each tool has its own data and formula, so the numbers won’t match exactly.
Our method draws on PageRank and harmonic centrality, two published ways of measuring connections, alongside the referring-domain count. See how we calculate Site Strength, plus 20 real domain comparisons ↗
Your competitors give the score context.
A local bakery doesn’t need to beat Wikipedia’s score. Start with the websites you actually compete with.
- 01
Check your website.
Enter your domain above. A full website URL works too; the score covers the whole domain.
- 02
Check three competitors.
Use businesses that serve the same audience. Copy the results into your notes or export them as CSV.
- 03
Look at their links.
If a competitor scores higher, check its referring domains. You may find a publication or directory you hadn’t considered.
Before you chase a bigger number.
What is a good Site Strength score?
There isn’t one target for every website. Compare your site with direct competitors using the same tool. A score of 40 tells you much more when you know whether your competitors score 25 or 70.
Will a higher score make me rank higher on Google?
The score itself won’t change your rankings. It describes links to a domain. It doesn’t measure whether a particular page answers a search well, loads properly, or is relevant to your customer.
Why is my score different from DR or DA?
Rankfield, Ahrefs, and Moz collect or use different link data and calculate their scores differently. Check all competitors with the same tool so you’re comparing like with like. Our Site Strength guide shows examples side by side.
Why can’t you find my website?
We may not have data for it yet, especially if it is new or has few links. Check the spelling and try the main domain. An unavailable result does not mean the site has a score of zero.
