You can check the number of backlinks to your WordPress and Blogspot blogs using various online tools and services. Here are some popular options:

1. **Google Search Console:** If you have your blog verified in Google Search Console, you can find information about your website's backlinks under the "Links" section. It provides data on both internal and external links to your site.

2. **Ahrefs:** Ahrefs is a powerful SEO tool that allows you to check backlinks to your website. They offer a free backlink checker tool that provides basic information, or you can subscribe to their premium service for more detailed data.

3. **Moz Link Explorer:** Moz offers a Link Explorer tool that can help you analyze backlinks to your blog. It provides valuable insights into the quality and quantity of backlinks.

4. **Semrush:** Semrush is another comprehensive SEO tool that offers a backlink analysis feature. You can use their Backlink Analytics tool to check backlinks to your blog.

5. **Ubersuggest:** Ubersuggest is a free SEO tool that provides basic backlink information, including the number of backlinks, referring domains, and more.

### Google Search Console:

1. **Accessing Backlink Data:**
   - Log in to your [Google Search Console](https://search.google.com/search-console/).
   - Select the property (website) you want to check.
   - Navigate to "Links" in the left-hand menu.
   - Click on "External Links" to see backlink data.

### Interpreting Backlink Data:

- **Number of Backlinks:** This represents the total count of external websites linking to your blog.
 
- **Referring Domains:** Indicates the number of unique domains that have at least one link pointing to your site. A higher number of referring domains can be beneficial.

- **Anchor Text:** Look at the anchor text of the backlinks. Diverse and relevant anchor texts contribute positively to SEO.

- **Quality of Backlinks:** Not all backlinks are equal. Assess the authority of the websites linking to you. High-quality, authoritative sites are more valuable.

- **New and Lost Links:** Monitor changes over time. An increase in new links is positive, while a significant loss of links may warrant investigation.

If you're using Ahrefs to check your backlinks, here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

### Using Ahrefs:

1. **Visit Ahrefs Website:**
   - Go to the [Ahrefs website](https://ahrefs.com/).

2. **Enter Your Blog URL:**
   - On the Ahrefs homepage, you'll find a search bar. Enter the URL of your WordPress or Blogspot blog and hit Enter.

3. **Explore Backlink Overview:**
   - In the dashboard, look for the "Backlink" or "Backlink Profile" section.
   - Here, you'll find information on referring domains, backlinks, and other relevant metrics.

4. **Analyze Referring Domains:**
   - Check the number of referring domains. A higher number from diverse sources is generally positive.

5. **Review Anchor Texts:**
   - Examine the anchor texts used in backlinks. Relevant and diverse anchor texts are beneficial for SEO.

6. **Check New and Lost Backlinks:**
   - Explore the new and lost backlinks sections. This helps you understand recent changes in your backlink profile.

### Additional Tips:

- **Disavow Harmful Links:**
  - If you find spammy or low-quality backlinks, consider using Google's Disavow Tool to disassociate your site from them.

- **Regular Monitoring:**
  - Schedule periodic checks to monitor your backlink profile. This helps you stay informed about any changes and take corrective actions if needed.

here's some more information on using Semrush to check your backlinks:

### Using Semrush:

1. **Visit Semrush Website:**
   - Go to the [Semrush website](https://www.semrush.com/).

2. **Create or Log In to Your Account:**
   - If you have a Semrush account, log in. If not, you can sign up for a free or premium account.

3. **Access Backlink Analytics:**
   - Once you're logged in, find the "Backlink Analytics" feature. It's typically located in the main dashboard or under the "Link Building" section.

4. **Enter Your Blog's URL:**
   - Enter the URL of your WordPress or Blogspot blog into the provided search bar and click "Search."

5. **Review Backlink Data:**
   - Semrush will generate a report with detailed information about your backlinks, including the number of backlinks, referring domains, anchor texts, and more.

6. **Analyze Backlink Quality:**
   - Pay attention to the quality of backlinks. Semrush often provides a metric like "Domain Authority" to help you assess the authority of referring domains.

7. **Explore Competitors:**
   - Semrush allows you to compare your backlink profile with competitors. This can provide insights into where you stand in your niche.

8. **Set Up Alerts:**
   - You can set up alerts in Semrush to receive notifications about new backlinks or changes in your backlink profile.

### Additional Tips:

- **Regular Monitoring:**
  - Continuously monitor your backlinks to stay updated on any changes. This helps you identify opportunities for improvement.

- **Disavow Harmful Links:**
  - If you discover low-quality or spammy backlinks, consider using Google's Disavow Tool to disassociate your site from them.

Can you tell me the possible reason for the same.

Add your Wordpress Google webmaster tools then copy HTML verification code and paste it into the Wordpress. After the click on the save button your account will be verified.

Blogspot is a Google's product. Therefore, when you add your Blogspot URL then your website will be verified.

In additional, you can get backlines using various types of tools as like semrush, ahrefs, backlinkwatch, small seo tools, majestic seo tools, webmeup, ranksignals, moz, etc.

One of the best tools I ever used is Ahrefs. It seems that you are on that stage, when using tools that cost so much, is not the best idea.
You can try SEMRush (it has 10 free domain checks/per day), but I'm not sure that SEMRush will show you data for your new websites (usually it works better on websites, who already gained some traffic and visitors). Besides, it's not so accurate as Ahrefs.

So.... if you have no significant budget, you can use information about Links to your site from Search Console + try to search for your brand name into different search engines (Hint: Google has a lot of additional search operators for advanced search, they can help a lot).

backlinkwatch.com is a free online tool to check your blog backlinks. But the most negative of it is you need some skills to export the lists.
I recommend seoprofiler.com, it has more option about the website backlinks and they can be exported. You can do more analysis in the offline excel file. The free version can export backlinks under 1000 amount.

To check backlinks for your blog:

Use SEO Tools: Platforms like Ahrefs, SEMRush, Moz, or Ubersuggest provide detailed backlink analysis.
Free Tools: Use Google Search Console to view backlinks under the "Links" section.
Online Checkers: Try free tools like Backlink Checker by SmallSEOTools or Neil Patel's Backlink Analyzer.
