Finding Sites that Point to Your Site


To get an accurate list of the links to your website, go to www.google.com. Click on "Advanced Search". Fill in the block titled "Find the pages that link to the page" with your web address. To leave out all references to your own website, add the command "-site:yourURL" to the block. You might get a few sites that just mention your website without having an actual link (a Google known bug), but you will get the best review of links to your site.

You can download a Free program that will automatically list the number of sites that have links to your web address and the search engine it comes from. Go to "http://www.programurl.com/link-popularity-check.htm" and click on Download Link Popularity Check near the bottom of the page. Set this program up with your URL in it and all you have to do is click and the program will list the number of times your website is referenced and by which search engine. It's a great little tool!
