The Google Webmaster Central Blog announced they have updated the link reports within Google Webmaster Tools.

The new reports show you three things in general:

  • The domains linking most to your site
  • The pages on your site with the most links
  • A sampling of the anchor text external sites are using when they link to your site

You can drill down to specific URLs and pull similar data. Here are some pictures of these reports:

links-to-your-site-overview

links-to-your-site-all-domains

links-to-your-site-per-domain

links-to-your-site-linked-pages

links-to-your-site-per-page

links-to-your-site-per-page-per-domain

This is now live for you to play with in your Google Webmaster Tools account.

I should note that Bing is expected to launch link reports in Bing Webmaster Center soon.
