HOW DOES YOUR WEBSITE TRAFFIC COMPARE TO YOUR COMPETITORS? HERE’S HOW TO FIND OUT.
Research Website Ranking | How does your site stack up against your competitors regarding link popularity and the number of pages indexed? It’s easy to find this out. Using” advanced search” techniques, you can analyze your website like a search pro using “advanced search” techniques.
CHECK LINKS ON GOOGLE
On Google, you can search for (quote) “www.yourwebsitename.com” (close quote) to get an idea of the quality of links you have on the engine. Google tends to under-report, so the value of the information you’ll see will be what Google considers to be the most relevant links, with repeating links excluded.
To see how thoroughly a specific engine crawls your site, type “site:yourwebsitename.com” in that search box. To see if particular pages on your site are indexed and showing specific keywords, type “site:yoursite.com keyword.”
So, for example, in Google, I would type (site:www.visionefx.net web design) or (site:www.visionefx.net marketing)
On a more advanced level, if you want an idea of what anchor text different sites use in their inbound links, type “allinanchor: keyword.” This allows you to research those links and imitate the high-ranking website’s anchor combinations.
Last, there’s the ever-popular “inurl: keyword.” This can help you see whether other sites use your brand in their domain names.
CHECK LINKS ON BING
The same command will work on the BING Search Engine—type “linkdomain:yourwebsitename.com” in the search box. The results will show all links to any page within your domain.
Note: You will need a Bing Webmaster Tools account.
Above all, DO NOT IGNORE BING. When someone asks ChatGPT or Microsoft Copilot to recommend a business like yours, a big part of that answer is assembled from what Bing knows. If Bing doesn’t know you exist, neither do they. Read Why Bing Suddenly Matters Again.
CHECK LINKS ON YAHOO
On Yahoo, type “linkdomain:yourwebsitename.com” in the search box. The results will show all links to any page within your domain.
