Is this a major URL and backlinking mistake?

  • Hi.

    If I recently created a niche site and the url ends with an / …
    so for example — https://example.com/

    My question is…when I begin to add backlinks to my site and write articles linking back to my site…will I have to put the link as example.com/ or can I just put the link as example.com?

    NOTE: They both link back to the correct site/home page, but I am worried about google PR and SEO. Will having the backlinks for example.com improve the PR and SEO of example.com and not the actual homepage of example.com/ ?

    Please help me as I have already created several quality backlinks to my site, example.com/ ,but I linked it without the / .

    *Please forgive me if this question is a really obvious and newbie question as this is my first website.
    Thank you ~
