I got few do follow backlinks around the DA rate of 70, it about an month ago

And those links are indexed and live,but i can't find still now whether it on GSC or ahrefs.

Is it because of crawl delay / budget or something causing it ?

Has anyone facing this kind of issues ? Lemme know

It seems like not every live backlink shows up right away in every tool I'd give it a little more time before assuming something is wrong especially if the links are still live and indexed

Basically GSC and Ahrefs are reporting systems not a confirmation systems of 'Google values it'. If the Guest post is indexed and live I'd monitor the impressions and clicks of the targeted page. backlinks moves ranking is actually matters than appearing in Ahrefs.
 
I think this is normal sometimes. Ahrefs and GSC don't always show new backlinks quickly, even if the links are already live.

I’ve had cases where links showed in both Ahrefs and GSC within a month, but this one not reflecting suggests a crawl priority or signal strength issue. If they’re live and indexed, it’s more about how Google is valuing them than just discovery.
 
That's normal gsc & ahrefs don't show all links, even if they are indexed many get crawled late or ignored if they are low impact so it's not really a crawl budget issue
 
This is normal.
A month is often too soon for backlinks to appear in Google Search Console (GSC) or Ahrefs.

GSC
A backlink may be indexed, but Google can take several weeks to associate it with your site.
Ahrefs
It uses its own crawler. Even if Google has indexed the page, Ahrefs may not have recrawled it yet.

Common reasons for the delay
- The linking page hasn't been recrawled by Ahrefs.
- Google hasn't processed the backlink yet.
- The linking page has low crawl priority.

What to do
check when Ahrefs last crawled the linking page. If it's been less than 10–12 weeks, it's usually good to wait.
 
Yes, I have seen this happen before. Just because a backlink is live and the page is indexed does not mean Google Search Console or Ahrefs will show it immediately. Both tools have their own crawling schedules, and they do not discover every backlink at the same time.

I think it’s pretty normal now. But I’ve had cases where backlinks showed up within a week.

Give it a little more time. A month isn't always enough for evey backlink to appear.

Onething i'd check is whether Google has actually crawled the linking page after the backlink was placed, being indexed doesn't mean links been reprocessed yet.
 
Backlinks take time to show up in GSC and 3rd party tools. You can force index them using tier-2 links, or admins can manually submit the pages having backlinks for index, or just give it some time.
 
A live backlink won't appear in GSC or Ahrefs until the linking page is recrawled.
Google's index and Ahrefs' crawler update independently, so delays are completely normal.
 
Sometimes it takes some time but ahref is fast in indexing links. I don't think it should take more than 15 days. What types of link is it? Most profile links don't get passed here.
 
Yeah, I've experienced this too. Sometimes it takes several weeks or even a couple of months before backlinks show up in GSC or Ahrefs. As long as the links are live and indexed, I'd just give it more time.
 
It's normal. Ahrefs and GSC don't always pick up new links immediately, it will take some time. Just give it some more time and check that the linking page is actually indexed and crawlable.

Also, it's not necessary that all the backlinks need to appear on Ahrefs and GSC.
