Track twittered links to your website
If you're trying to keep track of tweets that link to your website, you've got a tricky problem. Because people use URL shorteners to create links compact enough to fit in a tweet, you can't simply search for mentions of your domain.
Luckily, BackTweets (http://backtweets.com) has your back. Just type in the URL you want to track, and it pulls up a list of appropriate results. You can search for links to a domain name (like nytimes.com, as we've shown here) or to a specific page (like http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/24/business/media/24paper.html).
To keep a regular eye on your results, grab the RSS feed for them by clicking the RSS logo at the top of the results page.
