How to check which sites link to me
 

I'm a SE n00b :) I know google, but not much results. Is google the best way to check it, and actually view the results?

try your weblogs?

?

Sorry I mean, I want to check which sites/pages do link to sites I own...

like

link:www.domain.com

Is this the only command? It looks like I miss a lot of results

Try using Yahoo

Yahoo site explorer, type "link:www.yourdomain.com" into Yahoo and it will take you there. Note that Yahoo counts an img src across domains as a "link"

This site may also offer you some clues

www.sitedossier.com/site/www.gofuckyourself.com

you dont put 'www' - it's just link: yourdomain.com :thumbsup

ummm, no

yahoo hates you.

Actually, you should check both. There are plenty of sites that have mixed links going to the same "page" but on different hostnames. www.domain.com is not necessarily assumed to be the same as domain.com. :2 cents:

http://search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt=...iscqry=&fr=sfp

Visit this link and checkout the format, -site:gfy.com is used to eliminate the links to gfy.com FROM gfy.com.

PS. http://www.gfy.com/ should be replaced with the page for which you are checking links. It can be https://gfy.com/ or any specific internal page.

I use this, some times its accurate and other times it will act a twat.

well.... i use it all the time to scan the results to find out who is actually linking to sites i have. there isn't a perfect way to find all backlinks using search engines.

... then i started wondering about the search types and what they are specifically and why they show different results because i use them but don't really think much about it and thought i would post the link.
