how to get backlinks in yahoo

Hello Friends,

If you've been out there building links to your website for some time now, you may be wondering how many of your links have actually been picked up by the search engines. This is a very legitimate question to have! There are several different things you can do to find out how many backlinks have been picked up by a search engine, but today we're going to focus on how to check how many backlinks Yahoo! says that you have.
Before we get started, you need to keep in mind that you may have built more links than Yahoo! shows you. That's the nature of things with search engines. Your links aren't picked up the same time they are created. Also, these will only be the links picked up by Yahoo!, Google and the other search engines probably have a different number as well.
So let's get started on how to check your backlinks with Yahoo!.
First, go to Yahoo.com and click inside the search bar. In the search bar you need to type in site:www.yourdomainname.com, replacing the sample domain name with your own of course. Then hit enter or click on "Web Search". This will take you to a page in Yahoo! called the Yahoo! Search Site Explorer.
If you go down the page just a little bit, you'll see where it says "Results", and right below that it says "Pages (number) | Inlinks (number)". "Pages" tells you how many pages Yahoo! has found in this website, and "Inlinks" tells you how many links are coming to the site. But we need to filter this a little bit. So go ahead and click on the tab that says "Inlinks".
Once you click on "Inlinks" you'll see two drop down menus. By default they will say "From All Pages" and "Only this URL" respectively. This is how we are going to filter the information. The problem is that the number we see right now also includes when we are inter-linking on our own website. In fact, if you scroll down and look at some of the listings, you may see your own website on the list. Well, for backlinks we don't care when we're linking to ourself, so click on that first dropdown menu and choose "Except from this domain". This will take all of the links from your own site off the list and just leave the links from other websites.




Thanks
