Blekko is hands down one of the best SEO tools I have ever found. While I'll probably have a fuller post on either my personal blog or my company blog, I wanted to share this tool with everyone as soon as possible.
I'm assming I'm actually late to the game on this one since I heard of Blekko some time ago, but for those of you who occasionally miss terrific tools, here's your notice!
Blekko.com is a search engine that doubles as an amazing SEO tool. In the absence of Yahoo Site Explorer, SEOs have needed a tool that helps them understand (and copy!) the backlink profile of competitors. YSE was perfect for this and so were other tools such as SEO Book's Backlink Tool and Market Samurai's backlink checker, both of which are not expired.
Fortunately, now there's Blekko. Blekko allows you to search for any site and pull up the inbound links to that site. It also gives a breakdown of what countries the links come from, WHOIS data, and a list of other sites on the same server making it a fantastic research tool. I've already used it to uncover dozens of useful sites for my latest project.
While their index is not as great as Google's or even as wide as Open Site Explorer, it is enough to get started with. As you probably know already, I don't particularly enjoy SEO, but Blekko at least makes it easy!
I don't have time to go into too much detail at the moment, so suffice it to say that this tool is one of the best I've found when it comes to SEO and even overall research of competitors and I wanted to share it with all of you. So enjoy, and, as always, please leave me any comments or questions.
