Live Link Check

After almost a year MSN had returned their link check operator back to live (double meaning… nice, right?)

But as MSN knows they decided to make things complicated so they changed the way we were used to use.

From now on you need to add “+” before the operator

For example, to check the back links of seo-compare.com you need to write:

+link:www.seo-compare.com

and if you want to check all of your domain backlinks just use:

+linkdomain:seo-compare.com

I am pretty sure they’ve done so in order to prevent old robots from using their tools automatically, so if you have a bot or a script that is attempting to receive data from MSN Live.com simply add the “+” before the original code and you’re set to go.

Link Harvester

from the maker of the SEO Book, Aaron Wall, comes this great seo tool that shows link information for a certain website according to yahoo (the last standing link source for webmasters).

Link Harvester checks up to 1000 results and divides them according to c-class ip address.

It also displays a set of links next to every link your site has giving you the following options:

W – Whois
A – Archive
G – Google Cache
T – Google Cache – Text Version
D – Dmoz
Y – Yahoo Directory
S – search Yahoo for page from that link that are linking to your website

Using this tool you can check your site value or your competitors. It also separates completely from the list links that comes from authority sites such as .EDU, .GOV & .MIL

BackLink Watch

dondor — Sun, 15 Jul 2007 20:30:14 +0000

From the home of DigPageRank.com – Backlinkwatch.com brings a very simple and very useful back link check tool.

Backlink watchÂ homepageÂ shows a few ads and a “Enter URL” field. as simple as that.

Once a url is enteredÂ you will be directed to a page that will show you all the links inÂ 1 table that will include eachÂ links anchor text,Â Google PR of the page, Number ofÂ OBLÂ from that page andÂ any special flag in that link (such as nofollow) – which is a feature most back link checkers and link popularity tools do not bother checking.

Very nice tool, very simple, only thing that annoys is that on many pages it does not recognise the anchor text and if it does not recognise that, it does not write PR, OBL or Flags.Â

1 more thing if you’re working with IE load the page and continue what you were doing, because it will take a long time if you have more than 1000 IBL.
