What's a good (and free) back link counter tool? So I can see how many links out there are pointing to a domain?

Isn't there a way to do a google search for this?

The views expressed on this page by users and staff are their own, not those of NamePros.
Unfortunately good =/= free.
Those tools are expensive for a reason.

You could do a search for backlnks in G but you'll be needing a high amount of resources (ie. software, proxies, etc.)
...which in the end it will -again- cost you.

There're many guys out there that you can use:

Free: freetools at webmasterworld, backlinkwatch, smallseotools, metricbuzz,...
Paid: ahref, moz, seoprofiler,...

There are various tools available online, which can help you to check your website backlinks. But I would suggest rather than using and free or paid tool, you should use Webmaster tools for the same.

Webmaster is the best source to know from which all sites your website is getting backlink. You can audit the backlinks and if you find some of them are not relevant or good for your website, you can disavow those links.

Free majestic account will give you counts, so will OSE (Moz), but their index is smaller. Numbers alone don't mean much.

Google search used to have a link: command, but it's been broken for a long time and Google just officially announced that they are killing it off.

Thank you for the recommendations and for clarifying that the google LINK: check function is phased out.

PLEASE DO NOT CUT AND PASTE POSTS FROM OTHER SITES - if you quote a small part of an article AND add your own input, that's fine as long as you credit the person who wrote it.

There are various resources available on the internet, which can help you to examine your web page back-links. But I would recommend rather than using and 100 % free or compensated device, you should use Webmaster resources for the same.
