Until yesterday, it was possible to see how many IBLs a place's page has, and where they come from, by searching with the "link:" operator; e.g. link:<thepage'surl>. As of yesterday it suddenly returns no results.

What's the point is removing it? It's not as though LL doesn't want us to see where links come from. Jeska posted how to do it, by searching on the exact name of the parcel. That method isn't accurate though, but at least she did give a method. So why the sudden secrecy?

Alright, I know that nobody here can answer the question, but I had to have a bit of a moan about it.

That's unbelievable! It works for me now too. BUT minutes before I posted, it didn't work. It didn't work all day yesterday and today - right up to me posting. Huh!

Anyway, you're welcome to the trick :)

allintitle: seems to work, and probably some of the other Google operators, but the only useful one that I know of is link:

Jeska's method of searching on the exact parcel name is fine as long as the parcel name hasn't changed at all. But, if it was changed at some time, the IBLs from the previous name won't be returned.
