On: Websites with the most backlinks

[mlinksva]

http://www.seoprofiler.com/company/about compares to Google link: queries, which are indeed incomplete. How does your crawl compare to Yahoo! Site Explorer link: queries. The latter seem more complete to me.

In our tests, Yahoo Site Explorer sometimes shows more links, sometimes less links than we do. It depends on the subdomain.

Here's an example:

http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/search?p=http%3A%2F%2Fc... 293m

http://www.seoprofiler.com/analyze/creativecommons.org 19m

[andrevoget → mlinksva]

SEOprofiler shows the backlinks only for the creativecommons.org subdomain, excluding support.creativecommons.org, wiki.creativecommons.org, search.creativecommons.org, de.creativecommons.org, etc. For this reason, the backlink number appears to be lower.

No, that's not the reason. As you can see by clicking "subdomains", they only account for 1.1% of links seoprofiler knows about.
