What is "Linked Root Domains"?
Linked Root Domains are unique root domains (e.g., example.com, google.com) that your target URL or domain links to through outbound links. This metric is important for SEO because it shows the diversity and scope of your outbound linking strategy. A healthy number of linked root domains indicates that you're providing value to users by linking to relevant external resources, which can improve user experience and demonstrate topical authority. However, excessive outbound linking without proper context can dilute your page's link equity.
Example: Analyzing the linked root domains count to understand how many different external domains your content references and assess whether your outbound linking strategy provides sufficient value to users while maintaining SEO best practices.
