Backlinkchecker tool recommendation
-
Hi,
I am looking for reliable backlink checker tool. I'd appreciate if you could recommend me what you use?
Thanks

It depends what you mean by backlink checker tool.
If you're talking about competitive & research analysis then OSE, MajesticSEO and ahrefs are fantastic tools.
If you're requiring backlink monitoring tools for your own projects I would recommend these three great tools: Raven, Buzzstream, CognitiveSEO.
hth,
Phil

I highly recommend that tool as well. Great mention, Kyle!

Tom is spot on with tools for a link profile analysis.
If you know that you are being penalized by Google (via a warning message) i would also suggest checking out www.linkdetox.com to give you a quick run down on what are good, bad, and suspicious links for removal.
Good luck!

SEOMoz's own OpenSiteExplorer is very useful. The metrics it uses to rank pages are widely considered to be very accurate, while the new 'just discovered' feature is a great way to check on links as they are indexed.
I use it in conjunction with MajesticSEO - which has a larger link database and also some very accurate metrics in the form of Trust Flow and Citation Flow.
Many people I know also recommend Ahrefs.
Hope this helps.

Anyone seeing a big drop in links showing in Google webmaster tools?
Over the last week I have seen a big drop in links to us showing in Google Webmaster tools. The links are still there on sites that rank well including some from National newspapers. However the link count has dropped from over 4000 to less than 40 on approx 5-6 sites. Ranks etc are staying the same its just a bit of a strange thing as they still show in Majestic and Open site explorer.

Web master tools
What constitutes a link showing up in Google web master tools? I know I have links to my site that do not show up in WMT. Have they just not been indexed or does not everything just show up? If it just doesn't show everything, what is the criteria for links to be displayed? Also when I run OSE it does not show all the links that have been displayed in my Google profile for a while. Why is that?
