Enabling Backlinks in blogger

January 12, 2009 · Article by Sriraj · 4 Comments 

Backlinks are the links coming from other blog’s that link to your post. When someone links to your post you see his post link beside your post comments link under “links to this post”. This is not to be confused with Trackbacks which however are not available in blogger. By default in blogger the backlinks are disabled and you need to enable them should you want to show off your backlinks strength.

Now to do that go to the settings tab and then to the comments tab and then enable the ‘Show’ radio button under Backlinks sections.

Once done, save your settings. The next time when some one links to your posts you’ll be able to see his/her post link and keep track on who is talking about your blog.

Google always keeps a close look on the security aspect of its products and no wonder why trackbacks are not enabled in blogger.

Do you know that Backlinks are less prone to spam than Trackbacks?

    But the problem with my blog is different , initially when i used to create link on other blog-post by hitting “create a link” , i could see my blog link displayed on their blog with other people links but now for past 6 months whenever i do so , my link on other post does not get displayed even when other peoples’ links were displayed over there . if you can please sort out this problem?

      I guess you blogger profile is being displayed instead of your blog address?
      Try using a different email address from that you use to accessing your Blogger account.
