    Exclamation A significant decrease in the amount of backlinks in Google Search Console

    Hello everyone, I moved my site (casinos.fyi) to a new server. The only thing that has changed following the move is the IP address. The rest remains the same - same domain and same URLs. No redirects were needed.

    I had over 2,000 backlinks showing up in Google Search Console before the move. Now I only have 74.

    I imagine, or rather hope, that the drop is temporary and following the transition to the new server.

    Has anyone encountered a similar phenomenon, which strengthens my claim that it is a temporary decrease? I'm a little worried it's something more serious.

    Thanks in advance,
    Idan

    I recently migrated (about 40 days ago) and I'm seeing the same, though it could have been that way before.

    I don't check GSC link counts that often. Once in a while, it may show a domain that blocked Ahrefs bot. Most of the time I'm looking at Ahrefs or some other 3rd party tracker.

    Nowadays, you have to combine counts from multiple sources: Ahrefs, GSC, Bing, Yandex even. And good luck getting a complete view of your competitors without a substantial time investment.

    Realistically, Google only wants us to care about our own links. And it's incumbent on us to track them ourselves.

    I've experienced a similar drop in backlinks after a server move. In my case, it was temporary and the backlinks reappeared within a few weeks. Ensure your server settings and Google Search Console are properly configured. Hope this helps!

    Apparently it was a glitch and has now been sorted: https://www.seroundtable.com/google-...xed-37499.html

    Don't know why you bother looking in GSC for anything except indexation, health issues and manual actions. If the backlinks appear in ahrefs then google sees them too.
