Build Your Own Backlinks Vault Using This Simple Advanced Search Query

Do you know the difference between these two search operators? Is the second one search in the body while first one in URL? :)
Code:
inurl:
Code:
-inurl:
normaly the minus adds something as a negative keyword
----
example: baseball bat -amazon
(don't show me results with amazon in it)
----
Could be the same for -inurl but I'm not sure
 
It's an old trick but it doesn't return all URLs so it's not a replacement for ahrefs or semrush.
 
Doesn't tools like Ahrefs do the same thing? That is what tools are for, to do this manually would be too tedious.
 
Can any coders in this forum just do a simple software to scrape all this data and put it in an excell file for us BHW members?

Awesome! Found a nice blog my competitor did some guestposts on.
 
I always used -site: instead of -inurl: -- because if you have one of these stats or website analysis urls (e.g. abc.com.w3snoop.com/ -inurl would exclude them.
But I guess de gustibus non est disputandum
 
I just tried this but I don’t think it catches all the links to the same extent seo software do. I couldn’t find the ones I was looking in search that are listed on ahrefs? They are definitely indexed.

Am I doing something wrong?

As i was saying the SEO tools are more accurate and automates the entire proecess.
 
Fucking hell I just remembered that dude....he could make millions but reported the bug to G and G said thank you but after the web started making noise about this G gave him like 5k.....what a fucking joke.


You're like the guy who found the good ole' sitemap bug with Google search console. ;)

I like the trick, But what about to check a single url No the domain?.
Anyone here knows how to check google backlinks for one url?.

If you lean back for a moment and ask yourself what does that "trick" actually do, and why does it work, you have the answer to your question.

If a site have hundreds of posts this is really hard to find those hide pbn links using this trick. I try one url instead of the domain and doesn't work.
 
Tried it and it works, nice tips, one more thing I did not know about, thanks!

Code:
inurl:
Code:
-inurl:
The - is a not operator. It makes query exclude results instead of including them.

For example, -mykeyword will exclude results with that keyword. -site:mysite.com will exclude results from that site, etc.

You're telling me that you tried "your.site/url" -site:your.site and it didin't work?
Let me guess: you tried "your.site/.url" -site:your.site/url , right?
