chain link Freeware for Bloggers: Link Popularity CheckI was browsing as usual to figure out how to market and link my site out there on the public Internet and I found this nice little freeware program called Link Popularity Check.

This small, light-weight freeware download will scan Google, Altavista, MSN, Yahoo and the rest of the web and build the number of links it finds to your site. It also has a slew of pre-built in sites including the big ones like Ebay, Amazon.com, etc., so you can compare your metrics.

You can also add in additional sites and keep track of all your blogs on a daily basis, just add them all,and click “Update All” every once and a while to keep track of them.

It is a really neat feature, it color shades the blogs based on the number of links and auto sorts them with lowest links on top to highest links on bottom. I decided to compare my blog links to some of my friends blogs in my blogroll.  Alas, I am still the lowest out of my pals, but not by much, and since I have only started blogging in the last 45 days I am off to a great start.

Damien Riley’s Blog has more than 10-times the number of Internet links as my blog with over 7000 links on Yahoo and 113 on Google. Congrats on the successful promotion Damien.

Out of my several friends, Aronil had the most links with just over 18,000.

Everyone should download this program and see their blog link totals, and compare against blogs you admire. This will help you set goals for your blog, remember to set reasonable goals and reasonable time frames.

Here is a snapshot from the program (click on the image and you can see larger pic where you can read the sites):
