    Once you get the results, you can choose options from the dropdown to show results "except from this domain". That will eliminate all backlinks from other pages on your own site.

    type in "link:http://www.yourdomain.com" into Google and google will show you SOME of your backlinks. I have found that Alta Vista will show you a more realistic number of your backlinks.

    webmaster tools will show you some backlinks

    Google has always kept it pretty secret as to how many you actually have

    Checking your backlinks MANUALLY in Google is the most accurate method to check real-time links. I don't opt for any tools for the results are often different from what I see in manual checking.

    I have been using this backlink checker to check the backlinks for my sites. Gives me pretty accurate results. See if this works for you.
