You could try...

.yourwidgetsite. site:www.widget.com

But it could also pick up text containing ".yourwidgetsite." which isn't necessarily a link to your domain...

There is no such command but as petehall says searching "yourdomain.com" (with the quotes) gives a fair idea.

However, this will only show websites that actually have your domain name on their pages as opposed to using your site title.

If you want to check a specific website to see if your link is present using Google, then you can try the following command:

site:www.site-you-are-checking.com your site name

or

site:www.site-you-are-checking.com yourdomain.com

or

site:www.site-you-are-checking.com your keywords

But there is no guarentee this will pick it up if the webmaster has not used the words you expected him to use (or your domain name) when he linked to you.

try typing this into google search bar,
search.yahoo.com/search?fr=fp-pull-web-t&p=linksite%3Awww.example.com
replacing example with your domain name.
Then click on the result.:)

Google's backlink query results seem specifically designed to keep people from knowing who links to you.
