      Is there a way to see a history of the "links to your site"?  I've seen a lot of posts here from people say "I just saw a big drop in my numbers."  I don't look at this number enough to be that familiar with it.  Is there a way to see if Google has suddenly chopped our numbers?  I've poked around a little, but not found a method yet.

      Thanks,

      Reeves

        I don't know if you need a pro account, but in seomoz you can track the number of links to your website by time and see if you have a drop.

        In your campaign, it under "Link Analysis" > History

        You can also use the open site explorer to find out more about links to your website:

          Thanks, Smarties.

          It's the "Link Analysis">History that makes me want to check webmaster tools.  OSE does show a huge drop in links, but I can't figure out why.  I haven't gotten the latest numbers yet so I'm not sure if the drop is continuing to happen or if it's stabilized.
