    Usually google shows the number of backlinks exactly . I think your website has 5000 backlinks and its true .

    It just only a glitch. I have seen my website backlinks jumped from 6xxx to a million!! (1,xxx,xxx). This is uncommon since all backlinks are the same except the summary. :p Weird

    I noticed the same thing. My big site was listed at about 90,000s links. Than the last 2 weeks it plummeted to 35,000. Today it jumped to 900,000+. WTF?

    What's even funnier... It says I have 900,000+ links, but only 4,100 links to my homepage. So only 0.455% of people link to my homepage? They link to 99.555% somewhere else on the site?

    Since many members seem to have noticed sudden and large increase, it has to be a technical problem. Wait a while and hopefully, google would have rectified the mistake! :)

    Backlinks have been updated with the link command on google as well as those in Google Webmaster Tools. This usually happens before a PR update. Give it some days and you should see a more stable number of links to your site.

    I'd be happy if Google was overestimating my backlinks!
