What are your latest backlinks? How can you tell?
-
Hi
Can anyone recommend a tool (which is up to date) which shows the latest backlinks (in date order) that has been added to a website?
Mainly I am planning for checking for bad links etc
Many Thanks

Hi Keri
Just logged into GWT and can't see the option you mention? Where can I find this?
Thanks

Google Webmaster Tools just released an option to download your most recent links. As long as you can verify the site in GWT, that should be really helpful for you.

I really enjoy OSE for links, but also use AHREFs.
Keep in mind any tool you use has limitations. First, they all crawl the web which takes time. Outside of Google and Yahoo, the most elaborate web crawler I am aware of is MozScape. Currently about $600k is spent per update (roughly a month). SEOmoz has invested millions more this year in improving the process and hopefully we will see the benefits of that investment soon.
There are a few limitations with any tool:
-
no tool crawls 100% of the web
-
a page could sit for months or years without being crawled, then a change can occur on a site or a new link is created to the page and it is found. The link would appear and you might think it is new even though it is not.
-
there are various factors which affect the order of a crawl
In brief, you should know the tool you are seeking does not exist. All crawlers have limitations. If you desire the best results, you need to subscribe to numerous tools and check the results regularly. I use the following tools: Google WMT, OSE, AHREFs, Raven and SEMrush. There are numerous other tools as well such as Majestic.

Backlinks from subdomain, can it hurt ranking?
I just started doing an SEO audit and noticed I have 40,000 some odd back links from an OLD version of our site that has been moved to a subdomain. The back links are for articles that already exist on our main site. I don't think Google is picking it up as duplicate content because that site isn't being crawled anymore. Could this hurt us SEO wise? I plan on removing the site, but how long after it's been removed should those back links disappear?

Broken Backlinking
I'm curious for those who have used broken backlinking as a tactic for clients - what % of emails do you normally get results from. For example, if you email 100 webmasters, how many would actually replace the broken link with yours?
