    Question for SE experts

    is there any way to see ALL backlinks to a site? (google,yahoo,altavista are showing only the first 1000 backlinks)

    Not easily. Best way I got around this was to copy and paste the entire english dictionary and run a script to harvest every permutation possible to fetch additional results. On one particular site, I was able to get about 200,000 links instead of the standard 1000 that Google returns.

      Like WG said, you would need a script or application to run the load.

        haha I just checked a few of gofuckyourself.com listings, it's placed on the first page for a few adult keywords.
        Guess we can expect an increase of surfers around here. Who knows maybe GFY will be used for SEO even?

                Check out my new venture at http://www.t3report.com

                We do our own spidering to map out all the first level links to a domain (ie. affiliates), and also show the 2nd level of traffic (ie. where your affiliates get their traffic from).

                We have a quick look up tool to show how many links we have per domain (it's outdated by 20M+ links already.. with update stats being worked on now).

                You can order a report on your own domain(s) or on competitors.

                  I've only harvested backlinks from Google, not Yahoo.
