Question

A popular page has a total of 10 anchor backlinks out of which 1 is mine. How do I check how much traffic each anchor received including mine?  

Answer 1

Are we talking external links to the site?

@deathless yes

I'd probably use GSC (to see which externals are indexed etc) and then referring traffic report in GA

@deathless I am trying to see what traffic other anchors are receiving. Anchors of different websites.

I'm not quite sure I understand your question, @retharethink425. What do you mean by "how much traffic other anchors are receiving. " Do you mean how much traffic each link is driving to your page? Wouldn't that be cleared up by checking the pages' referral traffic in GA?

@sst that page is not on my website. For example it's a Wikipedia article that I submitted. On the article there are 10 anchors out of which 1 refers back my website and other 9 to someone else's website. You can't use GA for pages on other website. Can you?

@retharethink425, I think I understood now. So by "anchor", you mean "link", right? And you basically want to see the traffic a link brings to sites you do not own. Sadly, no, you cannot check traffic stats for website you don't have access to. Not that I know of, at least.

@sst That was my guess. Just confirming. Thanks.
