    Hi, good people

    From time to time I try to check my own backlinks.
    Currently I use Backlink Checker & Backlink Watch.

    But I am not satisfied with both. They show different non consistent results.

    So I need your help > What are the tools you use to check your backlinks.

    Thank you, Dana

    the SEOMoz open site explorer is Fabulosa..... but its free trial has limited features.. give it a try..

    also,,you can run a google search for: "www dot name com" -site:www dot name dot com

    keep the space between apostrophe and hyphen

    also, use the same term and set up a Google alert for it. it will let you know the websites linking to your site. whether these backlinks are do-follow or not, you have to figure it out. use a firefox addon for it.

    Hope it helps..

    I use http://www.backlinkwatch.com/ and Yahoo Site Explorer. Keep in mind you will never be able to see all your backlinks.
    Actually I'm quite happy that no tool shows each and every backlink. At least competition can't spy on me ;)

    I am a fan of using Yahoo Site Explorer.

    siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com

    It seems to be relatively accurate, has some useful features, and is updated daily.

    I am not sure you prefer it or not but i always check backlink with yahoo search. I think it has more specific result than any other backlinks checkers

    Backlinks are the strength of character of each website or blog. Search engines frequently use the number of backlinks that a website has as one of the most significant factors for influential that website’s search engine ranking. I use Search Engine Genie and i like it's features.
