Is there a tool to find out our website's link in some other website?
-
sometimes we know our site link is there on a site but the site is so big its hard to search manually. Is there any tool which can crawl the whole site and find the page having our site link ?
though I know about OSE, and we can also see backlinks from webmaster tool. But still if you know any tool where instead of seeing the whole back link profile, we can add a specific url and see our site link in that url.

I found answer - its a Google command - xyz.com inurl:abc.com.
thanks guys

You would need a paid subscription of majestic to use this feature

Actually, bizarrely I had another thought on this last night while in bed.
If Google haven't yet indexed the site or you don't know the anchor text then perhaps use the free Xenu Link Sleuth crawler to go through the site. We used this fantastic little app while doing our Google Reconsideration Request when we wanted to find literally every page on a site that contained a link to us rather than just the ones in the Google index.

thanks Mark. I think Google method is not a very efficient one. Because when you use that command, Google gives many pages as result which has the anchor text (appearing in random order) in those pages. (In one case, its giving useless results where none of the pages has my site link. )

If you don't know the anchor text, but know the site is linking to you, you can also use a site crawler like screaming frog (the paid version), and in their custom section, you can give it your domain - when it crawls the site and finds the page with your domain in the code, it'll put that page in the custom crawl section. But this isn't super efficient if you need to crawl a large site to find a link - the Google method mentioned here is good when you know the anchor text and it's a specific one that won't show up on each page. If it's one that shows up across the site, the Google method won't work.

sounds good. though i cant find that feature on majestic seo

Thanks Chris!

Majestic SEO allows you to filter by URL - http://screencast.com/t/bN41auXnwrv
The method that Chris pointed out will only work if you know the anchor text of the link
-
The method Eliathah suggests is sound but an alternative would be to do a Google Search which returns matching results from a specific site only. This can be achieved by performing the following search from within the Google Search Box "site: <domain name=""><search text="">"</search></domain>
For example:
site:www.seomoz.org Vikas_Rana
Hope this helps.

thanks Eliathah, but If you read my qn, I mentioned I already know about Webmaster tools
-
Use Google Webmaster Tools.
Go to - Traffic>Links to your site
Download the table, and then just run a search for the site you are trying to find the link from.

Internal Link Building and Link Juice Quality
Hi There! I manage the website for a law office that covers many geographical locations. For very specific niche content, we would prefer to create one piece of content and link to the various geographic locations where we would handle that topic instead of posting multiple variations of the same content for each specific geographical area. If we put a button on these pages that has links to each location, will that have the same "link juice" effect to the pages we're linking that linking directly in the text would? (example: the Where can we help you? button on this page : http://www.zdfirm.com/volkswagen-recall/) Thank you!

Can I Gather Inbound Links from Different Subject External Websites?
I am working on link building campaign and trying to gather inbound links from various subject external websites. I have big confusion with this effort. I am working on eCommerce website and getting inbound links from technology related website. So, Does it really matter for better performance? I want to give one example to get more idea. I am selling table lamps on my website and trying to get inbound links from that kind of websites which are highly dominating to table lamps or lighting industry. But, This is not only one case. Sometime, I have opportunities to create inbound links from different subject website. Simply, If I will compile one content for UGC section on SEOmoz and links to my website with table lamps so, Will it help me to rank for table lamps keyword? Exact match hyperlinks on external website always matter::: That I aware about it. But, what about subject orientation. I am Table Lamps monster & you are SEO monster. So, Will Google give benefit to that kind of links which are dominating different subject? I have solved some issues about quality of website after installing SEOmoz toolbar in my browser. Because, I or We are visiting multiple websites during daily stuff and may find out opportunities to drop our website link over there. But, I have fear to drop my website link in any website. Does it really matter quality or website & How can I judge it better rather than SEOmoz toolbar? I have added such a big question with proper declaration but, I want to jump in to link building campaign and want to earn good value after my long term effort.
