    Hi marketguy,

    Don't tell anyone but I've noticed that some Warriors rely on others to find the High
    Ranking PR sites.

    Here is a way you can find one way useful High Ranking PR site links in your own niche.

    Let's say that you would like to find educational (.edu) sites to place backlinks on.

    Here is how I do it. First I'll show you the search query I use and then I'll explain what
    each part of it means and why they are needed.

    My search query:
    site:.edu inurl:blog "post a comment" -"comments closed" -"you must be logged in" "internet marketing"

    This is what I would type into the Google search box.
    Now what does it all mean?

    site:.edu tells G that I only want urls ending with .edu

    Inurl:blog tells G that I only want sites that have the word blog included
    in the actual site url.

    "post a comment" tells G to only return results that have post a
    comment in the listing.

    -"comments closed" tells G to exclude any results that contain the
    phrase comments closed. This weeds out the blogs that no longer allows
    comments to be added.

    -"you must be logged in" tells G not to include results that require me to
    be logged in in order to reply to a post. This is optional. If you don't mind
    signing up and logging in prior to posting a comment them you can leave
    this out of the query.

    "internet marketing" tells G that I only want blogs related to internet
    marketing. This can be any subject that you choose. If your niche was
    astrology then that is what you would put in the place of internet marketing.

    TIP#1: If you use FireFox with the SEO4FireFox add on then you will see
    which sites on the results page have high PR ratings. This will help you
    narrow down the results to only the sites with high PR ratings.

    TIP#2: You can change out the .edu in the query above and replace it
    with any .com .org .net ... you choose!

    I hope that helps you to find places where you can gain high PR
    back links to your sites.

    All I ask is that you use this info the right way and Please do not go out
    and start spamming these sites with BS posts. Make them a long term link
    by posting valuable info, questions and such. Think long term investment.

    Hope that helps,
    Have a Great Day!
    Michael

      i do not understand why it's not working for you. when i do
      siite:mydomain.com it displays all the sites that have my domain in them at some point, or in other words, all my articles, forum posts etc.
      works like a charm for me for all of my sites.

      do not type in keywords just siite:urURL.com

      no www, no http

          try clearing your cache and restarting your browser. that has never happened to me.

          just tested it again. no problem for me. first result is my website, all other results are the pages linking to me.

          i use firefox, but just tested with IE and i get the same results as i always get (updated, of course).

          why does this work for some and not for others?

      Hi Michael, nice info. But not related to this thread.
      OP has opened this thread to find backlinks to your site,not to find links where he wants to drop a link.

    This doesn't work. It returned over 2 million results for one of my domains that is brand new. It's using "domainkeywordshere.com" as "domain keywords here" and returning results as if I just searched for "domain keywords here", although some results for "domainkeywordshere.com" are also displayed. This site has only a handful of links pointing to it.

    Another domain of mine returned only 8 results, but a few of them were blogspot domains with the keyword in them.

      let me try again. you do not type keywords. just siite:yourURL.com(or net).

      hope this helps

    Market Guy - sorry, this won't work. You are referring to Google Search Operators. And siite is not one of them. Here is a list for you to refer to -

    Google Search Operators - Google Guide

      i do not know what to tell you. .com worked (all of mine do, as well as .net).
      i do not have any .org. maybe that's an issue, although i can not see how.

    Marketguy,

    Those arent the inlinks, they are the results for that keyword phrase. If you type in any of the operators incorrectly, you will get a list of the results that have the keywords in it. The results will have a lot of the sites that link to you in them, so it would look like it would be the inlinks, but a more accurate way would be to do a linkdomain:mysite.com search over at yahoo...

      let's see if i got that right, if you follow my instruction you get your in-links and have no need to go to yahoo, right. because it works with my sites every time and i get to see my url in all the site descriptions and if the url is in the description, it means they are linking to you.

      am i missing something here? please tell me if i am.

      Kevin is right ;
      try search using one of these misspelled operators:
      sitte:
      siite:
      ssite:

          It's a weird one market guy. I see all the domains with my url in them, well the domain name without the www and .com but although a lot are linking to my site, and I just found some JV partners that I'd have never found had you not posted this, a lot of them are just using my domain keyword in there url Ie....www.theirsite/mydomainkeyword.html they are not actually linking to my site. I know as one is my main competitor and he's just trying to steal traffic off me.
          Still I'm happy and I benefitted from so thankyou market guy. That other trick by Michael is great! Thanks too.

        it does work for me and others in this thread. i do not care if big G changes their algorithm, since i know about the yahoo way. what i do care about is, why is it working for some and not for others. this question drives me nuts (even more so than i usually am).

      Thanks for the 'tip' marketguy, but Kevin_Hutto is spot on.

      Some of the 'mentions' containing your domain may also contain links, but are primarily search results containing your domain name.

      At first glance, it may look exciting to see all those 'mentions' but upon further examination, you will see they are mostly 'mentions' of your domain name as a keyword phrase.

      Additionally, those 'mentions' will contain any other domains that contain your domain keyword phrase. For instance. if your domain name were: bluedogs.com ... a site: or siite:bluedogs.com ... would also reveal mentions of blue-dogs.com (and others) which are probably those of your competitors.

      These Google 'mentions' for one of my sites reveals 165,600 'mentions' ... many of which contain competitors' who have the same domain name keyword phrase as mine, except with hypens, i.e. blue-dogs.

      A closer examination will almost assuredly reveal a huge percentage of these 'mentions' are stat sites which Google does not include in their true inlinks scheme ... they categorize them as 'mentions.'

      The first time I did such a search, like you, I got excited with what looked like a 'treasure' but it wasn't.

      You will find that whether you search using: site or siite ... nothing much differs.

      --
      ps: (There is no way that my above-mentioned site has 165k + links ... not even including all the stat site mentions ... but collectively my domain name 'as keyword phrase', along with those of some of my hyphenated competitors, total around 165k ...) Even so, most of those mentions do not include links.

    I just opened up Firefox.
    Put in my first site,a dot com.
    54 results as it should be.

    Put in my dot org,and 39,000 results.
    Not right.Its returning all dot orgs with my site url as a keyword.

    Went right back to the dot com and got 54 again.

        came across this because of a typo, but i was paying attention to the results.
        no difference here when I type : site:yourdomain.com :confused:

        Here is how I do it. First I'll show you the search query I use and then I'll explain what
        each part of it means and why they are needed.

        My search query:
        site:.edu inurl:blog "post a comment" -"comments closed" -"you must be logged in" "internet marketing"

        This is what I would type into the Google search box.
        Now what does it all mean?

        site:.edu tells G that I only want urls ending with .edu

        Inurl:blog tells G that I only want sites that have the word blog included
        in the actual site url.

        "post a comment" tells G to only return results that have post a
        comment in the listing.

        -"comments closed" tells G to exclude any results that contain the
        phrase comments closed. This weeds out the blogs that no longer allows
        comments to be added.

        -"you must be logged in" tells G not to include results that require me to
        be logged in in order to reply to a post. This is optional. If you don't mind
        signing up and logging in prior to posting a comment them you can leave
        this out of the query.

        "internet marketing" tells G that I only want blogs related to internet
        marketing. This can be any subject that you choose. If your niche was
        astrology then that is what you would put in the place of internet marketing.

        TIP#1: If you use FireFox with the SEO4FireFox add on then you will see
        which sites on the results page have high PR ratings. This will help you
        narrow down the results to only the sites with high PR ratings.

        TIP#2: You can change out the .edu in the query above and replace it
        with any .com .org .net ... you choose!
        this is really good tutorial, saved

        thank you

    I'm telling you, this is not working like you think it is.

    A domain of mine got about 2 million results, which is impossible. I checked the pages returned and most of them had no links to my site at all. I saw maybe three that did, and the rest just had "your domain keywords" in the text somewhere.

    Marketguy,

    Probably the best typing blunder I've ever seen. I use a lot of different search operators when researching a niche or industry before entering it. But I've never known about siite:domain - and you found it with a typo. Pretty cool. Here are some other operators that I think warrior forum members would enjoy:

    add comment “keyword”
    allinanchor:keyword
    allintext:keyword
    allintitle:keyword
    allinurl:keyword
    directory keyword
    favorite links keyword
    favorite sites keyword
    intext:keyword
    intitle:blog keyword
    intitle:directory “keyword”
    intitle:forum keyword
    intitle:group keyword
    intitle:keyword
    intitle:post keyword
    intitle:tag keyword
    inurl:add-link
    inurl:submit-link
    inurl:blog)s)
    inurl:blog keyword
    inurl:directory “keyword”
    inurl:forum(s)
    inurl:forum keyword
    inurl:tag(s)
    keyword “add a url”
    keyword “add site”
    keyword “add url”
    keyword “add website”
    keyword “add your site”
    keyword “advertiser testimonials”
    keyword “favorite links”
    keyword “favorite sites”

        I know the feeling...

        Let's see now:

        am i missing something here? please tell me if i am.
        If you are absolutely SURE all of the search returns contain *links* to your site and not just *mentions* of your site (yourdomain.com <---that's not a link!)... then that's not the problem...

        You're sure of this, right?

        i tried all of the these and got back all my inbound links.
        i tried the regular site:mydomain.com and i get all of the indexed pages for my domain.
        When you tried the above, did Google suggest spelling? (i.e., Did you mean: site:yourdomain.com)?

          the only one it ask me if i meant ...was with sitte. strangely, it asked me if i meant sitte:blah.com, which i typed to begin with.
          this is also the only one, that does not give me my backlinks. i missed that earlier. the others work fine and google did not suggest a different spelling.

          good point. i get a mix of both. the mentions are my press releases, while the rest are links.

        Do you have a quick/easy way to search for dofollow sites?

        If so would you mind sharing it?

        Thanks
