    What is backlinks? I am really new to this.
    Can you guys give me a step-by-step guide on how to index your site?
    I have forum type site. I have already sitemaps and already 600+ URL.
    When I search my site in google only appears 2 urls. Homepage and 1 section.

    Backlinks are links from other sites that point to your site.

    Is the web address you've given correct? The page doesn't load for me.

    As NinjaCluster said, backlinks are links from other websites that point to your website. Sometimes it's referred to as IBL, inbound links. The more sites that link to yours, the better you'll rank in Google.

    Is your robots.txt file keeping Google spider from crawling all of your website?

    Backlinks are simply links pointing to your site from another site.

    To get indexed prety quick submit your site to Digg, social bookmark it with sites like Onlywire.com and then ping it with one of the many free pinging services around.

    backlink were simple link from other website that direct into your web or your internal pages.
    If you have much web or blogs, you can insert your main web link into your other web/blog post. That's the easiest way to get backlink :D

    backlinks: external sites that link to yours

    To gain backlinks submit your site to social bookmarking sites like digg, reddit, delicious, etc
    Also write a press release and submit it to some free press release sites....

    Backlinks (or back-links (UK)) are incoming links to a website or web page. In the search engine optimization (SEO) world, the number of backlinks is one indication of the popularity or importance of that website or page (though other measures, such as PageRank, are likely to be more important). Outside of SEO, the backlinks of a webpage may be of significant personal, cultural or semantic interest: they indicate who is paying attention to that page.

    back links are quite simply links that point back to your site from another site. They can look like this http://www.yoursite.com or a much more powerful back link would be an achor text back link that is associated with a keyword on your site like this Green Widgets. I must stress that these are just random examples
