Link populartiy, strange question

Is there a program that will list URLs which link to me?

Hi all

So I have been asked by higher-ups to look through the 8000-15000 links from other sites to our website. This is because a few links were found from other sites that endorse us, and the boss man wants to know who else is endorsing us, as well as what sites we do NOT want to be linked from (if there were such a thing). Right now, the only thing I can think to do is go to the search engines and type in our Brand name, and start clicking back and forth. Is there an easier way to just get a big old list of URLs with a certain keyword (our domain name) in them, so that I could just click down a list? How would you accomplish this task? Thanks.

are you asking for a SE that searches for a certain keyword in the URL?

If so, you should check out www.netcraft.com

Hi Travoli

I use [submitcorner.com...] or you can go directly to Google at [google.com...] and run a link check with Google.

Well, I imagine you know how to do a link check [google.com] on Google and other engines? Just set your prefs to 100 results per page and go for it.

For me, I'd use Opera [opera.com] and create a linked window - you click in the search window and the link displays in another window. Or, you press control-shift and click the mouse to open the link in the background. Fire off 50-100 clicks and let them load up in the background with graphics off while you go make coffee. With Opera and a fast connection, you can do 300-400 pages an hour.

awesome. No, I did not know about Google link check, but I will be trying that out, as well as Opera. I wish I could just generate a list of URLS in a text file that I could just go through 50-100 at a time. But this is not tooooo much different I guess. Thanks!
