Link Extractor Lists Web Sites

Would you like a quick way to list all the web sites that are mentioned on a web page that you’re reading? The Webmaster Toolkit’s Link Extractor does exactly that.

I tested it with the 1-800-GOOG-411 web site. I entered the URL of the site…

… and it found nine HREF links.

Then I checked for SRC links…

… and it found twelve more links.

That’s certainly faster and more accurate than going through the web site manually. And it’s a lot easier!

[I read about this tool in an edublog, but —unfortunately— neglected to note which one. I think it was one of Vicki Davis’ links in her Cool Cat Teacher Blog.]
