`site:` is great.

As an aside, anyone knows if you can still find "who links to?". I used to do this to hear how people feel about my site/app. I would do something like `link:foo.bar.com` I don't remember if it was link: or linkto: but it seems it no longer is supported? :(



I dunno about "who links to" functionality in the search engine itself, but this information can be found if you set up Google Analytics, which is probably what they want you to do anyway because that data is worth a lot to them.


If you want it for your own domain I think you can still get backlinks in the Google Search Console https://search.google.com/search-console/about

Unlike Analytics at that at least does not require you to give Google any more information about your users - just to verify that you control the domain.


It was link:, and unfortunately Google removed support.
