Top 5 Most Powerful Backlink Tools
Building backlinks (incoming links) to your website is one of the most
vital activities that you can do when it comes to improving your SEO
(search engine optimization) and search engine rank.
For those of you who are new to link building and the concept, here is a brief description of what
it is and why you want to do it. Search engines rank every single website that is on the internet.
There are many things that go into the result of your website’s final score, but the one thing that
webmasters know for sure is that having many quality backlinks (links coming from another site
to your site) will increase your SEO.
Search engines use this criteria to judge just how good your site is. If you have other sites linking
to you, then it must mean that you have valuable information that should be ranked highly. And
if your site is ranked high, it means that you will come up first in the search engines when
someone does a search for terms that are relevant to your website/business. This will translate to
your website getting more traffic, more sales and more income.
There are many different ways to acquiring backlinks although this is usually time-consuming
and frustrating, but it does pay off if you are consistent and you keep track of your movement.
That’s where the backlink check comes in.
There are many different options out there when it comes to checking your backlinks and your
page ranking on the major search engines such as Google or Yahoo.

3. LinkHounds- http://www.linkhounds.com/link-harvester/backlinks.php
LinkHounds Backlink Information sorts results based on the IP address, thus showing only
unique IP/domain backlinks. The tool allows to exclude any domain from the results and also to
set the query depth. For each individual result you will also see useful quick links to whois data,
site web archive, Google cache, and exact pages where the backlink was found as indexed by
Yahoo.
There are plenty of backlink checkers online that do nothing more than export the data from
Yahoo SiteExplorer or Google. There are still a few ones that offer information in a way that
helps you categorize and organize it more effectively, and LinkHounds does the trick.
4. Backlink Watch – http://backlinkwatch.com
BackLinkCheck.com will give you the link popularity you are looking for in Google, Yahoo,
MSN, AltaVista and All over the Web on just about any search engine. You can also see how
your URL rank in relation to other websites on the Web in terms of link popularity.
5. Yahoo – http://yahoo.com (enter link: http://domain.com) to check backlinks
Yahoo is a little different as it does not have a separate site to check your backlinks and it only
checks out your stats on Yahoo.
To check your backlinks on Yahoo, just type in “site:www.yoursitename.com” into the Yahoo
search engine. Then click “web search”. You will see the results further down where it shows
you your “Inlinks”. Just click on this tab and you will see the details about the links that are
coming to you. If you want to filter the results even further to make sure you are viewing only
the links from other websites (and not within your own), then just click on the drop-down menu
that says “from all pages” and change it to “except from this field”. Now you will see all of the
links that are coming to you.
