How to find outbound links
-
Hello, I want to know how to find outbound links of any website. is it possible to like search google as "link:domain.com" or with any parameter?

Hi Figen,
I fear that will be difficult to find - I did a quick google search & first result was this topic on Moz from Jan. 2013 (http://moz.com/community/q/how-do-you-check-the-outbound-links-of-a-site) . The answers basically are the same - it's possible to to a check outgoing links on one page using tools- however if you want to do it on a full domain - you'll need a tool like Screaming Frog (or alternative Xenu LinkSleuth).
If Google isn't providing the info, all the other potential solutions would require crawling sites - most of the tools available on the market give information about who is linking to your site (or you competitor's site for that matter) - but not the other way.

Thank you for reply. But as you said size of website might be a little problem crawl with software. For example sites have a big index like moz.com .
In fact I'm looking for an easy way to find outbound links.
Thank you

I don't think Google provides you with this info. You could use a tool like Screaming Frog to crawl the sites & to check their external links - depending on the size of the sites this could take quite some time & you would need the pro version of the tool.
rgds,
Dirk

How do you check what links there are to a specific page on a site?
Hi Mozzers, I'm doing a bit of research and need your help! I'm trying to find out what specific sites link to a particular page on a website. What's the best tool to use as I checked it with Moz and it only brought back 5 links? Then I tried an free online tool and it said there were 35 links. I'm a bit confused now. What tool/s do you use to check links to a specific page?

Why would so many links be appearing in the source code of this page - but not on the page itself?
Hi everyone, Have a look at the source code of this page: http://www.daleproaudio.com/c-332-mixers.aspx Notice the numerous links in the source code that do not appear on the page. Is this cloaking? Or is it a by-product of their use of Nextopia? Bonus points if anyone knows what platform this site is running on 🙂 Thanks!
