Find backlinks from Wikipedia and Dmoz

Wikipedia is a top 10 most popular web site in the world. Dmoz (the open directory project) is the most important directory in the Internet.

Backlinks (or back-links) are incoming links to a website or web page. A backlink in Wikipedia and Dmoz is an authority view of your web site. The backlink can be a great SEO boost for your web site. In addition, a backlink in Wikipedia and Dmoz can drive significant organic traffic to your web site.

But how can you find out the backlinks from Wikipedia and/or Dmoz? It is not easy. Until now, you can find the answers from Tagsup.com.

Here are a few approaches:

Approach 1: In Tagsup.com search result page, click "View Profile" or "Comment" link, you will be able to see the backlinks for the web page.

Approach 2: If you have a web site (for example: http://www.mywebsite.com/), enter the following in browser (http://www.tagsup.com/url/http://www.mywebsite.com/).

Further, you can find out more reference of a web page from Digg, Stumbleupon, Delicious, Twitter.com, archive.org; traffic report from Google trend, Alexa, Complete; domain information from Aboutus.com and domaintools.com.

Below is one example. It is fun to check out all backlinks for http://www.britneyspears.com/.

Tagsup.com is up

Tagsup.com is up, for a little over a month.

Thanks to you, the traffic picked up. According to Alexa, we ranked 1,382,873 (http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/tagsup.com).

What is exactly Tagsup.com, many friends ask? Well, every body knows Google. (Yeah, Google rocks.) Instead, we tried to create a mashup on a few search engines (Yahoo, Google, Twitter, Amazon, Bing etc.) with added on content. The content can be user generated or from wikipedia or dmoz, or other useful/trustworthy sources.

The ultimate goal is to organize content automatically that is relevant to your query. You only need to enter keywords with one click to view all results. Then you can explore the content in one page, without going back and forth.

To put the idea into an equation:
Search + Explore + Social = Tagsup.com

Enjoy and stay tuned. Thank you.
