Link Building Using Bing's Linkfromdomain Search Query

One excellent feature Microsoft Bing has, is their Linkfromdomain search command. This unique feature on Bing is one thing that does make me use their search engine. It's great to use for link building. I'll show you why.

Using the Linkfromdomain search command returns pages that are linked to, from that domain. For example, I've used this to see that dover-web.co.uk is linking to 72 domains. From this, I can see that the website is linking to my competitor, ferryonline.co.uk.

From a link building point of view, with this knowledge, knowing that dover-web.co.uk link out to my competitor, I can think of a strategy to build a link on this site, to my own site of a similar nature, Ferry to France. All along, this is helping me identify and build up a list of potential link targets.
