Link building for google

My partner and I have recently launched a large link building campaign and have been quite successful with several different strategies.


We were think we would be at an advantage if there was some way or some tool out there where we could find out all the sites that are linking to our biggest competitor.

We ran the websitegrader.com on our competitor and he has over 600 links, however when we type link:www.hissite.com into google only one link pops up?? if we search for www.hissite.com we find alot more but no where near 600.

We both feel if these sites are willing to link to him they would be most likely willing to link to us as well.

I have only tried a program given to me from a friend called SEO elite? But it shows the number of links to his site but not the actual url where the link is so i have no way to contact them. Possibly i have the free version and need to pay for it?

Anyways if there are any methods/ tools you guys know of where I could find the urls of the sites linking to my competitor that would be great!

Thanks alot
Ryan

Probably more of a waste of time than helpful to you.

Successes in this link generation style "are usually" limited to lower value links... if your competitior has solid quality links from any specific source(s)... your proposed value you offer to the page owner is: "well our competitor is there - why not us?"... that makes for a fair argument in directories where the interests of the page owner is to list multiple providers under that topical category but it doesn't make for a good argument for anyone that found usefulness in listing them on a non-directory page [the former being "usually" low quality to latter being "usually" higher quality.

You are better off being more innovative-minded then you competitor and drumming up your own "quality links" so the shoe is on the other foot.

Whether my sig link is directly useful or not - it will certainly provide innovative ideas and approaches for finding better links.

www.backlinkwatcher.com

anyway; google doesn't show the link they know of, simply because they don't want to ...

use yahoo, they show all they got ... which is many times more then what's still online ... they really show everything they got ...

Does the anchor text need to match the URL to make it valid back link

I have www.mysite.com/1.htm. the anchor text is "click here for great deals"

This will rank well for people searching for click here for great deals but I suspect none will.
