How to check Backlinks in Bing?

September 30th, 2009, 12:28 am

Before I am using the syntax - inbody:(domain) like what I do in MSN and I get results but now it doesn't seem to be working? Does anyone know the new syntax? The link:(domain) doesn't work, too.

Not much has been known about bing so i dont think you will get some quality answers. Though i too will love to know the answer.

You need to add your site here (you'll need a Windows Live ID to login)
http://www.bing.com/webmaster/Webmaster ... sPage.aspx

Once you've added your site you'll have access to the webmaster tools
http://www.bing.com/webmaster/Webmaster ... sPage.aspx

This includes tools to see backlinks, outbound links, etc

In 2007, we shut off the linkdomain attribute in the advanced query syntax, but promised to make link data available to you as soon as possible. Last fall when we launched the initial beta of the Live Search Webmaster Center, we offered a limited look into backlink data. But we soon realized that for you to be successful, you really need more and better backlink data.

That’s why we're really excited about the updates that we a have built into the backlinks tool. We’ve significantly enhanced this tool, giving you access to more data about your referring links. This information is useful because backlinks influence the rank of your site. But there are other reasons to look at who is linking to you. For instance, web publishers need to know which sites link to them because these pages discuss the products or services they offer, and identifying them can be a valuable tool for finding sources of promotion or feedback.

Man, that's complicated, isn't there a easy way of doing it.

What's so complicated? It took me two seconds to add my link and the report was right there waiting for me. The only thing that will take you any extra time is if you have to create a login.

Thanks for that kind sir. I guess we just have to stick with tools until manual checking in Bing is okay.
