Recently I found a study about the different ways to search for inbound links in Yahoo.
I'm curious about the different syntaxes and what they do. Does anybody know?
link = inbound links to the domain
link:http://site.com = all inbound links
link:http://yahoo.com = 269,000 (missing www)
link:http://www.yahoo.com = 15,000,000 (links to home page)
linkdomain:yahoo.com = 138,000,000 (to any page of the site) (drop http & www)
linkdomain:www.yahoo.com = 15,800,000 (drop http, add www)(to any page of the site using www?)
linkdomain:yahoo.com -link:http://yahoo.com -link:http://www.yahoo.com = 123,000,000 (links to the whole domain, minus the home page)
linkdomain:www.yahoo.com -link:http://yahoo.com -link:http://www.yahoo.com = 883,000 (using www)
linkdomain:yahoo.com -link:http://yahoo.com -link:http://www.yahoo.com -site:yahoo.com = 98,700,000 (without www)
Any ideas?
Any takers here?
