    If a site shows at Webmaster Tool "Pages with external links" could this be counted as Backlinks? :) Hope you can answer my question. :D

    I guess that would be the case. and I believe that is the link that would be use in calculating your sites PR. but only you know this number not your competitor.

    Yes, that is a list of all your inbound links to your website registered by Google.

    What is the difference between inbound links and backlinks?

    I Google Webmaster tools, in the external links se3ctions is a list of pages on my site with innks....except that the homepage doesn't show at all. I know I have links pointint to my homepage, why doesn;t it show in ecternal links?

    Inbound links, incoming links, backlinks, etc all mean the same thing.
