swatrecruiting's flipping a url - briefing
Flipping a URL entails finding other HTML pages, outside the target, that link to the target URL. Internet Recruiters "flip" URL's when we think that the type of person we seek would have a reason to associate themselves with the target URL. For example, a Java programmer might want to link their personal home page or resume to Sun's web site, or an employee might want to link their homepage or resume to their employer's site. By flipping, the Internet Recruiter can quickly discover these pages. Here is how to flip using a variety of search engines...
