I am looking for a tool that not only accurately tells me how many links are being built by a competitor, I want to know the specific URLs for specific periods.

If I can filter/search by time periods, i.e which links were added for the month of August, 2012, that would be great.

Thanks for the help.

I use a mix of OSE, ahrefs and Majestic SEO.

I use SEO Spyglass to check the competitors back links, find their deficiencies & then build a plan to outrank them.

Competitors SERP's

One of our competitors is routinely achieving excellent SERP for brand related keywords within only a couple of months of adding the respective brand to their website. Full details are explained in the attached image to avoid the competitor being notified of this post via Google Alerts. Can anyone identify how they are achieving this and point me in the right direction? The other thing is that I was also achieving good SERPs for these and other brand related keywords but I seem to have dropped off the face of google for them, where my competitor has not and who continues to achieve the seemingly impossible. Thanks TOfVHD8

Any 'quick wins'!?

Dear all, My domain authority (www.landedhouses.co.uk) is about half that of my competitors (groupaccommodation and thebigdomain - both.com). Other than blogging/social media and trying to drum up back-links, is there much more I can do? Many thanks!

Best Link Analysis Tool?

Now that the Yahoo Site Explorer is not usable on sites unless they are in your Bing Webmaster Tools, what is the best tool out there to see an accurate list of inbound links to a site? Google tools are still pretty unreliable from what I can see...

How can I obtain analytics and social data for a site that I'm not authorized on?

I'd like to get traffic information and facebook /twitter stats for a company. Don't know their ua, logins or have access to any of their pages. Where can I find this information? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

SEOMoz bar shows competitors ranking higher in SERPS with less Moztrust and Mozrank?

We are targeting the term "wholesale fireworks" we are currently on page two and just completed some on page optimization. I noticed using the Mozbar that the SERP results on the first page show a site with near zero page rank, Moztrust, domain trust, etc.. It is steadily number two in SERPS. Our site is just as strong or stronger on these ratings as anyone on the first page. How is it possible that we are still hanging out on page 2?

Crazy SEO question (maybe I'm missing something?)

OK - so one of our customers just called us and told us an interesting story: A local SEO company called her yesterday to try to sell their services to her. She's in the process of starting SEO services with us, so she told them she wasn't interested. The sales guy told her that they were better (without even asking who she was currently using) and asked her for a term that she'd like to rank higher for. She said she'd like to rank higher for "spray in bedliners northern ky" and he said "Gotcha, call you tomorrow" He called back just now and told her to look at Google. She's now ranking number one for that term. He didn't have access to her site, so he wasn't able to change anything on her site. He won't tell her what he did, and told her it was legitimate - but it seems to me that with only off-site tactics, it'd be nearly impossible to white-hat her site to number one overnight... Any ideas what he's doing? First of all, we want to be able to tell her what he's doing, because she's curious. More importantly, we want to be sure he's not doing anything black-hat that's going to hurt our client's site. Thanks for your help, Mozzers!

Why there is no tool that check the page content ?

When using the SEO tool: http://www.seomoz.org/keyword-difficulty/google.com We can see the top 10 competition on a lot of parameters but i think you are missing the research on PAGE TEXT CONTENT. What do you say ?
