AGD has some nice backlink options
Edgar thanks for linkresearchtools advice. Checking them out now
As of late I find TF to sux as well, esp for expired domains - I saw a domain with TF0 but with 2 links from bbc and one from guardian, and total refering domains like 9, so I purchased it and once I put up 2-3 articles online on the domain the TF went up to 35, and now vary each day, so to be honest imo those SEO metrics and tools sux as much as Google, manual research is the key.High Trust Flow contextual backlinks (Majestic) are the king for long term ranking.
I used to use these methods but now don't bother.. just producing content alone has driven my traffic to large figures no need for these tools which have a 2-10% accuracy things are changing so fast and none of the tools measure using the hundreds of other signals "just backlinks"Majestic / Ahrefs / Open Site explorer. Check them all. It's perfectly possible for one to give you an inaccurate reading, but not all three.
