Does anybody know how to find out if a domain’s already linkin’ to a specific website?
Thank you for your help.

use a link-exploration software, like Xenu
crawl the website (5-6 levels will usually suffice) set the software to ignore all the links except the domain you are interested in (for faster execution)
hit play.
alternatively - if you know what the anchor text is for the link you could use the inanchor:- operator to find/look for the link. Is usually faster, but not as accurate as crawling the website.

Xenu is your best bet to crawl and find all the out-going links and then you can put it up in some excel sheet and perform searches.

A google query can be used to return websites linking to yours:
[google.co.uk...] (change 'yourdomain.com' to your domain)
You can also set up a Google alert for the same query: link:yourdomain.com
