Stumble How to Track Backlinks

Backlinks are useful as they encourage spiders to crawl your blog/site and improve incoming links to your site. Supposidly the more links you have coming in, the better the ranking on search engines like Google.

Gaining Backlinks

Previously I mentioned in posts about gaining backlinks by Promoting your Blog via Forums . These techniques work but there is another easier way.

Using Backtype

I stumbled across a web link called Backtype whilst searching the logs of my site. Perhaps you’ve heard of it already. Basically you can enter your web site address and check spidered comments that you’ve made on your blog, i.e:

Taking Backtype Further

Now in your mind you’re already taking this one step further I bet…and entering your competitors urls to see what comments they made on which sites!

It’s a useful tool and whilst it doesn’t display most of the comments made on other sites, it displays some which have been crawled by spiders, which means you’ll be gaining inbound links if you’re submitting to the same places.
