Best SEO Software to find competitors backlinks?

    Hey everyone,

    I am looking for some good SEO software or tool that allows you to see all of the backlinks to any site. I am specifically looking for one that will show the backlinks, but also show whether they are dofollow or nofollow.

    thanks for your help :)

    You can try Open Site Explorer (just google it, I cannot post links yet) powered by SEOmoz. It shows do-follow/no-follow links, anchor texts, alt texts and other useful info about competitors' backlinks.

    There is no need for a software to count or check your back links for your website ..just try "yahoo site explorer" ..you will see all back links for your wen site

    I use seoquake toolbar for Firefox and backlinkhunter for this purpose. They are both free and return enough results for your needs, IMO.

    Have a nice day,

    Market Samurai does this I believe. Not sure about the dofollow and nofollow, however, you can pull up the page source and easily check this in 2 seconds.

    I would have to recommend backlinkwatch for this purpose.
    Market Samurai is also good but backlinkwatch would serve your purpose better (as long as it's working. Sometimes the site just won't bring you any results :eek: )
