Backlinks not showing up...why?

    I have a 3 month old website that I have linked to from my older (PR2) website, but when I look in Google webmaster tools, that link does not show up. Other links do show up, but not this one.
    Anyone have any idea why this is happening?

    From what I've been told---google does not count links between domains hosted on the same IP Server.

    Put the two domains on completely different servers......with different server routing numbers.....and you will see those links credited.

    This is not correct.

    I have 6 websites on the same IP. And google webmaster tools shows all the links between the sites.

    ======================

    I have seen backlinks take at least 6 weeks to show up and sometimes 8 weeks - depending on the site. And then sometimes they show up in 10 days.

    So dont worry about it.

    As others say, relax my friend. Maybe Google didn't update yet.

    Google also do not show all your site's backlinks just for your security in your competitors.

    Well, I just did link building packages for a client. After 2 days of initial links he send me mail asking why backlinks are not updated. Then after 5 days some links got updated. Generally it will take 1-3 weeks for backlinks to get updated.

    check with yahoo siteexploer, because google discounts irrelevant linkage between two sites, for example, if u have weight loss site and tech blog, it might not link up relevantly. then, it might not show it, however, in yahoo siteexploer, u can actually find it every single indexed linkage.

    hope that helps
