Microsoft’s Live Search Webmaster Center came out of BETA today, with new features showing backlinks and crawl errors. Most agile webmasters would not have had much use for the crawl error tool, as they often have all the data they need in their own server logs but backlink metrics are very useful to SEO efforts and the more data you can get about your backlinks the better.
Till now, Yahoo’s site explorer has been the most useful tool, with the most accurate backlink data and it’s nice to see more transparancy from the search engines.
