There are many Backlink Checker Tools around. However, most of these backlink checker tools are based on yahoo site explore.  Simply go to : http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/ and put the URL you want to check backlink of. Tools like SEO Spyglass, SEO Elite etc use data of yahoo site explore to check backlinks. All of the so called SEO Experts are using these tools.

I used to use yahoo explore to check backlinks about a year ago. Now a days i never visit yahoo site explore. The reason behind is there are tools around which will give us very detailed data of backlinks such as Pagerank of the page, domain age etc. SEO Elite even shows if the backlink is nofollow. The only defect with SEO Elite is it works slow than other tools and you will need very high speed internet to operate faster. I would recommend SEO Spyglass as one of the best backlink checker tools available in the internet. See the image below to have basic idea about the software.

My favorite tool is Backlink Watch!: http://www.backlinkwatch.com/index.php

I have found it to be more thorough than Site Explorer.

I think I use different ways to check backlinks. Just now, I checked backlinks by using four resources: Market Samurai(>1000), Control panel of my host server: hostgator (Google<data of hostgator600), yahoo search(<100).

I don’t know which one is more accurate. It is huge different between Market Samurai and yahoo search.

It is interesting to get so different results.

Did Yahoo change its advanced search syntax recently?

Opensite Explorer is a really good tool. I use it to, also using other tools, like the one attached to my name here.

Spy on competition sounds unethical for a lot of people, but its not. It is all public information everyone can get theirs hands on. Take advantage of this 🙂
