Check large number of links

How can I check a link to see if there are links going to it (internal and external)?

How can I check a large number of links to see if there are any links going to them?

Thanks!

Maybe I get your question wrong but you can examine inbound links of a given url with OpenSiteExplorer for example. You can also chechk bulk data by giving not one specifical url but a whole domain. Was that what you wanted or did I totally misunderstand it?

I'm really looking for internal links. Thanks!

Respectfully, I'm not sure I understand either, but I'll take a stab at it...

So you've got an excel sheet with tons of URLs in it, and you need to see how many links point to each one? Or, you need to get a list of all the URLs pointing to them? If so....

Richard Baxter just wrote an awesome post about getting loads of info into excel in a scalable way
You could also build a custom app of sorts to do exactly what you want with the SEOmoz api.

If you're wanting to get a list of URLs that point to each URL in your spreadsheet, I think you're going to have to use the api for now.

Does this help?
