The type of problem is called Relational Division

SELECT  a.md5, 
        a.url,
        a.title
FROM    Links a
        INNER JOIN Tags b
            ON a.md5 = b.md5
WHERE   b.Tag IN ('awesome', 'useful') -- <<== list of desired tags
GROUP   BY a.md5, a.url, a.title
HAVING  COUNT(*) = 2                   -- <<== number of tags defined
