Hey there!
Don't get too hung up on backlinks appearing (or not) there can be a few reasons for this. Don't forget crawling the web takes a lot of power and Roger can only get so far and so often, Google has a bit more power to get further so it's likely to find links more often and faster than other crawlers. Do they might be there and not visible on a tool.
Secondly, if the value of a backlink is there e.g. the value to a user that is the complete purpose of a backlink more so than anything else. Keep on working and you might find them come up over time, you can always look in Search engine console and you might discover them in there too!
The link you gave unfortunately 404s so as long as all your links are working I'm sure it will be a ok, you can always keep a list somewhere of them to manually check. it can take weeks depending on the DA/PA of the site.
Hope some of that puts your mind at ease and keep on creating links and you'll get there before you know it
edit I'd also ensure you've ticked all boxes on your site, check if its https

SEO traffic + backlinks question
Let's say I want to write a guest post for a website that is relevant to my website. Should i guest post on a website with high traffic but the traffic country is not mine? (eg// My website sells products in Canada only, should i guest post on a high traffic site from India?) Or would it be better to find a lower traffic website to guest post on but their organic traffic comes from Canada? Thanks!

Homepage vs specific page Backlink
Hello, I have a local business and have been working on getting backlinks for highly relevant keywords. I have keyword optimized pages (keyword in URL, title, H1, etc) but I have been sending backlinks to the homepage, as these keywords represent the core of what we offer. See example below: car repair car repair london auto repair auto repair london I have been sending backlinks (with the correct anchor text of course) to the homepage, am I better off sending them to the specific pages? One more thing: the SEOMOZ report talks about cannibalisation of keywords, where for example the page optimised for "car repair" links to "Car repair london". I have links to the optimised pages in a footer at the bottom of every single page on the website, is this bad practice? (considering SEOMOZ talks about cannibalisation? Should I do something else instead (or eliminate the footer links altogether?) I would appreciate your expert advice.

What to do about bad backlinks hurting authority?
My site has many backlinks from 208.109.47.246/* and go.diaodou.com/* which have low authority. The 208.109.47.246 I believe is my godaddy IP and I don't know why I have the diadou links. Is there anything I can do about these links other than building other more reputable links? Could switching hosts or going to a dedicated IP solve the 208.109.47.246 issue? Here is a look at the links- http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/www.mueslifusion.com%252F/a!links Thanks,
