LadyBugCandles Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 I thought I remembered someone posting a link a while back that would let you search to see what websites had links to your site... Am I totally nuts? Or does this exist?My host lets me track certain things, but I received an abnormal amount of hits to my site on one specific day and I'm just curious where they came from.Any help would be appreciated!Thanks!

Funky Monkey Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 I use statcounter (www.statcounter.com) and I can track everything. You'll just need to install a small bit of code into your page. I have mine hidden - but you can have your visible if you like. Oh.. it's free too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinInOR Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 A quick way to find out who links to you (not stats though on how much they hit you) is to go to google and in the search type in link:yourwebpages.comor any of your other pages. Not the same as a true stats tracker but it can be interesting at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudsnwicks Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 In addition to google, you can type the same search phrase Robin gave into yahoo's and msn's search engines. Because google doesn't give a complete listing of who links to you. They only give a sampling. I'm not sure that the other 2 search engines are much more complete, but they do give different results so by trying all 3, you'll be able to get more results.

Jordan Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I use statcounter (www.statcounter.com) and I can track everything. You'll just need to install a small bit of code into your page. I have mine hidden - but you can have your visible if you like. Oh.. it's free too. We used this one on our site too, it works great, and has better tracking than many of the trackers you pay for. Can't beat FREE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
