Provided is a production method of a silica particle dispersion liquid which includes, preparing a linked silica particle by adding a liquid A containing alkoxysilane and a liquid B containing an alkali catalyst to a liquid containing water, an organic solvent, and an alkali catalyst in a container. The preparing a linked silica particle includes initially adding an alkali catalyst, the initially adding an alkali catalyst includes decreasing a molar ratio of an alkali catalyst to silica in the liquid in the container to 0.15 to 0.60 by adding the liquid A containing alkoxysilane to the liquid in the container, and increasing the molar ratio by 0.2 or more by adding the liquid B to the liquid having the decreased molar ratio in the container.
