Who is LINKING to my website?

One of the essential methods to help your website rank well in search engines results - that is improving your SEO or Search Engine Optimisation - is to have sites linking back to yours.

There is plenty of information on the web about how you can do this but here is a very simple tool that you can use to find out who is currently linking back to your website.

Go to Yahoo's website and enter the following into the search field:

"link:http://www.yourcompanyname.com"

so for example we would enter: "link:http://www.btechnologies.com"

You will then see all of the websites that are linking to yours. You can also play around a little bit further by using the drop down boxes and selecting different options on the results page.
