link:http://www.domainname.com removed

[temi]

It seems Yahoo has removed the backlink checking command (link:http:// www. domainname. com)from its search engine, in the past used to check backlinks with that command, does anyone know what the new command is?

Thanks

Temi, the link: operator still works.

Thanks for that, how did you access it? I usually go through Yahoo!

 

[Bagi Zoltán]

That is a good startingpoint. Simply use the default search input at the yahoo! main page. At the left top corner of the result page you will see the numeric data.

Sadly it does not work for me, I get "Document not found" and it has always worked for many years. I am not logged into Yahoo when I did the search, are you logged into Yahoo when you did yours?

 

[Bagi Zoltán]

Yes, i am logged in.

 

[temi]

That is probably what I need to do as welll.
Thanks

Temi, you need to be using Yahoo! Site Explorer far better.

In the past, when you run the command from Yahoo.com , you are forwarded to site exploere, I think its now been changed so that you have to login to Yahoo first.
