really good.

7. blekko.com
Blekko will definitely rise in popularity. A lot of search engines already knew the shutdown of YSE and yet only Blekko stood up to try and eat up the market that YSE
has, in the aspect of its free and quick backlink-spying capabilities.

8. SEOattack.org
At SEOAttack.org you can research your competition in a quick and simple manner.But sometimes they never update the script, so sometimes they show wrong value
when I start explore our backlinks there.

9. Exalead.com/search/
Exalead looks like a promising tool in replacement of Yahoo Site Explorer.It’s not really a popular tool/search engine – which is quite shocking because it
gives out good backlink data.You have to type in link:your-domain-name.com in order to get the list of backlinks of that site.
