    There are various Add-Ons for Firefox that are useful when looking at back links as well as many other key factors of SEO.

    I think you should study some stuff before posting here!!

    Do you know why Site operator used?? For your knowledge, below is the explanation of 'Site:' operator:

    "If you include [site:] in your query, Google will restrict the results to those websites in the given domain. For instance, [help site:www.google.com] will find pages about help within www.google.com. [help site:com] will find pages about help within .com urls. Note there can be no space between the "site:" and the domain."

    I hope it'll help you??

    Hello everyone
    I'm new to SEO and have a problem. When I use Yahoo site explorer to check my backlinks I get something like 97, but with google I get 3 results which are internal links on my site. Does anybody know whats going on here?
    For my google search I used link:www.mysite.com

    Google doesn't show you all of the backlinks. Yahoo doesn't either - it limits you to the first 1,000 results. If you are willing to pay, you should get an seomoz.org subscription. They crawl the web themselves, and give you complete data.

    Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but I find this free backlink checker pretty handy. Gives you results and counts for google and yahoo.

    Hi DJMC,
    Could you please let me know how you will count number of backlinks in Google using Google webmaster tools??

    On the other note, how would you count number of backlinks in Yahoo or MSN by Google Webmaster Tools??
