Yahoo Site Explorer - New Design
For those of you involved with search engine optimization as I am, you may have noticed that Yahoo has updated it’s Site Explorer program, which has become used as a more popular tool for examining a website’s backlinks than Google’s service. It shows how many other websites are linking to you and there are also plugins which tell you if the links are nofollow or not. These plugins currently don’t work on the new version, which looks slightly more modern and cleaner yet doesn’t seem as usable as before. Perhaps it’s one of those things you get used to.
I’d reccommend everyone uses it to track any worthwhile links coming into your website. Competition can also be examined in the same way. I probably prefered the old design - if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!
