Laravel 5.4 pagination links not showing in the view

I'm using Laravel Database: Pagination to show the links in the blade template. I can view the data in columns but not the links.

This is the controller function I use to pass the data to view.

public function showProducts(){

 $products = DB::table('products')->orderBy('created_at')->simplePaginate(9);

  return view('products', ['products' => $products]);
}

And this is the view section to show the links.

<div class="row text-center">
   <div class="col-lg-12">
      <ul class="pagination">
                             
      </ul>
   </div>
</div>
<!-- /.row -->

But I can't see any links. Is there a way to solve this?
