google webmasters tools display all your indexed backlinks
this screenshot is consistent with data from YSE.
see? no big deal.
But that still won't show what your competition is doing, which is just as important as finding the links on your own site

i just checked out majesticseo for one of my sites and it totally sucks compared to YSE despite being a paid tool..
Whoever comes up something comparable to YSE, will be a very very rich person
There is so much money to be made in this niche, someone will come up with something soon...I hope

I'm really surprised by how many people don't understand the significance of YSE shutting down.
No, we don't want to register our sites with Google to see backlinks. That's just dumb. An easy way to get all your sites taken out at once.
Second, how are we supposed to get good backlink data on competitors. Sure there's MajesticSEO but a lot of the data isn't up to date, or old legacy data.
If you use Scrapebox and don't feel the problem with this closing down, you haven't been using Scrapebox properly.

Trafic travis is not for this. Traffic travis is for checking Seo competation. YSE is for getting competator backlinks which got shutdown today.

Traffic Travis uses YSE. I hope there is a search engine shows backlinks. Majestic SEO mey be good - it is even better than YSE but as far as i know you pay like $30 for around 100 backlinks reports and
