Google Link: Option for more then 1000 sites

How to fiind the link: after 1000+

[jay23]

Google tells you who is linking to your site using the link: option I got 2 questions.

1) Google limits you you to 1000 results, how can I find out the 1000+

2) Is there any way to to find out who links to a given page insted of a site

Thanks

Question 1 : Google does indeed limit you to 1000, which is why you can't get beyond it.

Question 2 : Yes : link:www.example.com/subdir/ or link:www.example.com/subdir/file.html

Not perfect, but go to the Advanced Search option, apply some restrictions, and search again.

(eg past 3 months, past 6 months, only .com, only .org etc)

Easiest way is to use the SOAP web API
[google.com...]
to grab various variant SERPS, and then merge the resultant lists.

You can get well beyond 1000 with some confidence, but you could always be missing tha actual 1001st, and you'd never know.

Still, you end up with a legally automated query that yo can run every day, and dump the results into a database for analysis, so it's not all bad.
