What are the tools that you use to check backlinks

Hi All

,
What are the tools that you use to check backlinks ?
I tried all the below, the most reliable has been Yahoo site explorer
If you have any advice on anything more reliable I will be very grateful

YahooSite Explorer - Yahoo! Site Explorer
Link Diagnosis - examine your link competition --> not what it used to be
Market Samurai --> same yahoo data (says majestic seo data)
SEMRush - service for competitors research, shows Google organic and AdWords keywords for any site or domain --> can't find backlinks w/ this
Open Site Explorer: Link Popularity & Backlink Analysis Tool --> rubbish !

Btw this is not a criticism of any tool, just looking for somehting better than YSE, for bls !

SEO SpyGlass

idreesfarooq · 07-23-2011, 07:11 AM

SeoSpyGlass is the best tool to check your backlinks. Also it comes with a free version and can easily best fit with your needs.

tolkein · 07-23-2011, 07:12 AM

I use SEO Spyglass too - it can check from multiple and also local search engines. FYI, I read somewhere that Yahoo's Site Explorer will be discontinued at the end of the year.

ATT · 07-23-2011, 08:42 AM

Thanks all

, I've tried SEo splyglass some time ago but was not too happy with it !
I actually bought the full version, unfortunately didn't work on the mac, so had to return, it used to get stuck every time I ran it !
Will try again due to all the recommendations.
Cheers

I always use yahoo and backlinkwatch.com to check backlinks but after few messages here in favour of spyglass sure i am going to use It.

ATT · 07-23-2011, 10:43 AM

backlinkwatch.com looks good !, I am trying the free version of seo spyglass, not too impressed so far !
Will report back if there product has improved from the last time I tried.

I tend to stick to the one in MS. Not a whole lot of data coming from any of them but I was interested in checking out the majesticSEO checker. Since I'm not building mini sniper sites and outsourcing backlinks I don't have the need to pay for a backlink checker. MS does just fine. backlinkwatch.com. That's ok but I find it doesn't pull up nearly as close the links the sites have.

Interesting to see some of the other services mentioned in this thread. Thanks for asking

i partially agree with you there are some drawbacks in all of them but their significance can't be ignored if you think that a tool should show all the backlinks or more than 1000 links of site don't forget it could be a violation of search engines algorithm

design2convert · 07-23-2011, 12:18 PM

if you use firefox , seoquake is best , with this you can check the backlinks , your pr , ar and some others important things which are important for SEO .

ATT · 07-23-2011, 04:19 PM

Thanks

,
1. Did you mean to say that you outsource backlinking ? if so would it please be possible to share some details ?
2. I use MS, but there is no difference between the results from yahoo and ms, with majestic seo

Limited in what way?

It gives a lot more info than other backlink checkers.

Justinpage · 07-27-2011, 08:37 AM

You can also use majesticseo for backlink check. You can also use seocentro and submitexpress.

stodary2000 · 07-27-2011, 09:10 AM

SEO Spyglass is the best

you can use the FREE version but it has limitations where you can not save or export your project to excel

I used the free versions till my PC crashed like 2-3 times and I had to restart it, I lost everything so I decided to buy it

actually I bought the 4 applications under one package called SEO Power Suite

BXPS · 07-27-2011, 09:40 AM

i Usually use semrush.

Royalking · 07-27-2011, 10:17 AM

Online utility backlink checker works best for me.

It shows every backlink according to the domain extension and number of links coming from a domain.

chrisen · 07-27-2011, 01:43 PM

I use a variety of tools to check my backlinks.

SEO Spyglass
Majestic SEO
Backlink Watch
Yahoo Site Explorer

SEOtraveler · 08-02-2011, 11:52 PM
