|  SeoSpyglass - DOA without Yahoo Explorer
Well I guess it had to happen sooner or later, SeoSpyglass no longer returns backlinks from Yahoo Explorer. Argh...  This is bad news for sure. What's everyone else running besides SeoSpyglass? I'm not a fan of monthly subscription services. |

Yeah... I noticed that too. Now, every time I try to search the backlinks of any domain I get 1-10 results, whereas Yahoo lists hundreds or thousands of backlinks. This definitely sucks, but as you may know the Yahoo Link Explorer will be discontinued starting with later this year. So eventually SEO Spyglass would have taken the same decision. I'd also like to know what other options are out there for checking backlinks. From my experience the SEOmoz tool Open Site Explorer is much more inefficient compared to what SEO Spyglass used to be. I'm really addicted to checking the backlinks of domains...I need my fix now!  |

I've found a quick fix: "go to Preferences -> Search engines' API keys and uncheck the API key tick." Let's see how long it lasts |
