I do have a site which was started in the month of october 2006. I regularly optimize it...mainly off page. When i checked my backlinks from a seo tool, it reported the following information: Backlink Check: indexed Links Google 21 3 Yahoo 577 0 MSN 1035 3 I do not understand why google shows only 21 links ? Any suggestions to improve it.
Google is not showing all the backlinks to your site. So its always better to check back links in yahoo. Are you using google sitemaps ?? If yes then you can also show back link in tool.
google only shows a snippet of them at this point in time. it has always been like that. yahoo shows a much more accurate number of links.
Even the google sitemap has also shown the same 21 backlinks. As we get a maximum exposure from google so one has to be friendly with google. Any suggestions to improve this count.
You cant. Google shows you what it wants. There is no way to see everything google sees with regards to backlinks.
Never really understood why google does this. The backlinks it shows for some of my sites are what I would consider to be quite insignificant compared to others. Strange
- Google have add a new module in the "google account" which is links, they will show you all your backlinks even "no follow". create your account and you will get your results. - did not forget that Google accept just quality backlinks, example when you add a link direct to your web site and in this web page there are 200 links and your web site take the place 101,102,103,.....200 for Google it is not a backlink but if you use some others tools or search engine they will conisdered as a backlink - Many tools did not take quality of the backlinks in consideration.
Even the one to one links are not shown by google. I don't understand the mysterious nature of google.
Same here One of my Site Backlink Stats Google 0 Yahoo 759 AllTheWeb 630 AltaVista 787 MSN 1433 I wonder why google not showing any backlinks. Any suggestions? Thanks kam
That is not true. Google will show all the backlinks which are approved by their bots as a genuine link for the particular website.
Google's backlinks are too slow to update, they would take up 3 months for them to greatly increase your backlinks.
I have seen about 3-4 posts in here that are just flat our wrong. google does not show ONLY good sites. they show whatever they want, its an absolute random excerpt of what they actually have on file. googles webmaster tools doesnt show EVERY link either. If you want to see your backlinks it is very simple. Go here Type in: link:http://www.YOURSITE.com/ -site:YOURSITE.com
Yeah, I also knew that when I browse it, some of my expired backlink locations are shown in Google, even though it is not there.
Hi all It's normal what you see. The biggest mistake you can do is to think that search engines work in the same way, Each major search engine has unique algorithum.
