    Use Yahoo's Site Explorer to check backlinks. It gives the exact number.

    I would say use Google Webmaster tools and Yahoo - probably the best out there

    However be aware your results are never 100% accurate as various links show up and dissapear depending on Google and the various sites that link to you

    Try http://www.linkdiagnosis.com/ for searching out some competitors back links as well!

    I suggest you never use the link: operator to check the number of backlinks as this operator only show a sample of the backlinks. In order to see more backlinks, use google webmaster tools or yahoo site explorer.

    I downloaded the SEopen toolbar. It's a firefox addon. From it you can just click a dropdown menu and it gives you the backlinks for the sites. The toolbar has other features too, like chcking PR, Alexa, it checks yahoo, msn and google.

    I use backlinkwatch.com with great results. It shows no follow, how many outbound links that are on the page that your site link is on, etc.

    Yeah you have to use Yahoo... Google hides links, probably because they don't want people trying to figure out their algorithm?

    linkdomain:www.mysite.com

    also, you can look in Yahoo search by doing link:http://www.mysite.com -site:http://www.mysite.com

    linkdomain shows more results though

    You can use any of the following

    link:website address in the google

    put your url in the siteexplorer.yahoo.com to check the backlinks

    www.iwebtool.com/backlink_checker

    www.backlinkwatch.com ( personally I like this the most)
