Would this be a good representation of the "Do Follow" links pointing at your site? Or would this also include nofollow. Do all of these links have SEO benefits?
If you have a website & you want some relevant inbound links you can find dofollow blogs on a similar topic, read them, and leave your comments. This will encorage the owner of the blog and the blogs readership to notice your website/blog, and also provide inbound links to your website that will be noticed by search engines. Search engines are actually quite clever these days (even with all their failings) and they will notice that your site/blog is aligned with the topic of the sites that link to you. OK, great – where can I find some DoFollow blogs? •CommentHunt.com •DofollowBlogs.com •Comment Kahuna •DP forums Don’t forget that the directory, search engines and software listed above aren’t perfect – you need to check the sites yourself once you have found them. Download a plugin for your browser like SEO for Firefox. This has a useful function that highlights nofollow links (the ones we don’t want!)
I do not find Alexa's "sites linking in" to be very reliable. Most are no-follow and they don't update very often, so many broken links are used.
I also have found the Alexa "Sites linking in" number to be misleading. I have seen sites with thousands of incoming links from a variety of sites showing a very low number (under 20) in Alexa. Also what was said about old, broken links seems true. I don't know how often Alexa updates this stat, but it seems to not do so very often.
Alexa is not necessarily accurate the backlinks are also not necessarily reflective of what Google measures.
