How to Check What Sites Link to a Domain Name
Checking to see the sites that are linking to a particular domain name is typically referred to as checking the back links. Unfortunately, one ultimate tool to do this does not exist. In fact, as you use the tools, you will notice that you can get different results. This is because the varying services can see different back links. For this reason, you should always use more than one back link checking service, to get the most accurate view of who is linking to a domain name. All of the tools work in the same basic way.
