Open Site Explorer and comparing links of competitors , then export the differences?

[severtservice]

Hi,

I'm totally new to this community so please forgive me if this question is a bit dumb.
A client of mine is trying to get better rankings for a specific keyword and if we check out the competition we notice that our site has way better and more unique content.

The tools here at SEOmoz indicates that the competitor sites have more authority, and so probably more backlinks.

With the Open Site Explorer I can quickly see what sites are linking to competitor sites.
And since we're in the same country and trying to rank for the same keywords we also are after the same backlinks.

Now there are a few that my client is missing compared to the competitors.
So I would love to get a document that tell us what backlinks we are missing instead of
downloading many reports and do all the checks manually.

Is this possible?

Thank you,
Dennis

Hi Dennis-

SEOmoz's Competitive Link Finder tool will do this for you.

OMG! I feel a bit ashamed now. Thanks!

No need to be ashamed at all. There are so many tools with so many overlapping features it can be very hard to keep them straight.

Best of luck with your link building.
