.com.au domains in MrKeyword's web graph (August–October 2026), ordered by linking domains. Web graph rank and Link Authority weigh where links come from, not only how many there are, so they do not always follow the list order.

Compare the top five side by side in the free domain authority checker, or check any other .com.au site there, up to 5 domains at once with no sign-up.

How far ahead of the other .com.au websites is smh.com.au?

smh.com.au leads google.com.au, the second-most-linked .com.au website, by 3,119 linking domains: 44,712 against 41,593, so second place has 7% fewer. Together, smh.com.au, google.com.au and amazon.com.au account for 18% of the linking domains summed over all 100 sites on the list. With 2 sites in the web's top 1,000 domains, .com.au is 9th of 14 domain endings on that measure; the median ending has 4.

How many .com.au websites rank among the most-linked on the web?

14,945 .com.au domains rank in the top 2 million of MrKeyword's web graph (August–October 2026), 0.75% of those positions. That count includes every registered .com.au domain in that range, infrastructure too. Of the 100 on this list, 2 rank in the web's top 1,000 domains, 15 in the top 10,000 and 81 in the top 100,000. The 100th site, cpaaustralia.com.au, has 2,290 linking domains, about what a .com.au domain needed to make this list.

How strong is a typical top .com.au website?

The median Link Authority of the top 50 .com.au websites is 48, and the median site among them has 5,742 linking domains. Across the 14 domain endings MrKeyword lists, that median runs from 48 (.in) to 67 (.org), and .com.au is 13th of 14. Link Authority is MrKeyword's 0–100 score on a logarithmic scale, so a few points near the top stand for a large difference in links.

How does .com.au compare with other domain endings?

Of the 14 domain endings MrKeyword lists, .com.au has the 10th most domains in the web graph's top 2 million, with 14,945. The table compares each ending's count, its most-linked website and the median Link Authority of its top 50.

How was this list made?

The list takes every registered domain ending in .com.au among the top 2 million positions of MrKeyword's web graph (August–October 2026), orders them by linking domains and keeps the first 100 that are websites rather than infrastructure. .com.au is the commercial second level of Australia's .au domain, so .gov.au and .edu.au sites are not on this list. No infrastructure domain such as a CDN, script host or link shortener was in that range, so none was left out.

Each Link Authority follows the same rule as MrKeyword's site profiles and its checker: MrKeyword's own PageRank where it has seen enough links to a site, otherwise the site's web graph position on a 0–100 log curve (how Link Authority is calculated). Linking domains count each linking website once. Web graph rank is the site's PageRank position, which weighs where links come from, so it does not always follow the linking-domain order. Ranks describe links between domains, not traffic. How MrKeyword collects and labels this data.

For the 100 most-linked websites on the whole web, ranked the same way, see the most-linked websites of 2026. Well-known sites have their own profile on the domain authority list of popular websites, and the other endings are listed above.
