I'm starting to work on building backlinks to my sites and would like to track my progress.
I've found dozens of backlink checkers online and entered the same URL in each one and every one turned back different results. Is there one tool that is considered the most accurate?

I'd love to know what you use for this? Which site is the best?

Thanks for your advice!

    SearchStatus is the best I've found SearchStatus | Firefox SEO Toolbar Extension
    It shows backwards links to pages or domain as well as total internal/external links, google page rank, alexa rank, whois, highlights no follows, meta tags and loads more.

    Yahoo site explorer is best for checking backlinks. You can use this link Site Explorer - Yahoo! Site Explorer for doing that.

    Yahoo site explorer is very reliable. Hope it will help you.

    Best method to check backlinks for any site without any cost (limited to first 1000 backlinks)
    Site Explorer - Yahoo! Site Explorer

    If you want detailed backlinks then Use Google Webmaster tools.

    Building back links fast or slow depends on how old your domain is in age.An older domain can handle a lot more back links than a newer one.I think Article submission gives you the best quality links.Social bookmarking and forum postings simply give you the easiest way to get links.

        Yahoo site explorer is probably one of the best, but one thing I have heard with yahoo is a lot of people turn their site off to yahoo so a lot of the links dont get counted. Good luck though

    One of the lesser-used plans to build backlinks to your site consists of the production of reviews on sites like Amazon.com and Epinions. This is a great way to showcase your expertise and get backlinks to your blog. Secondly, a blog product, which is relevant to your site. Production of a blog is easy, you can send the wonderful content and get backlinks from other blogs.
