    Anyone know why there are differences in the counts for these two backlink queries in Google?

    link:[siteurl]
    link: [siteurl]

    The only difference is the second has a space after the colon. The second one also produces more results but are they considered SEO friendly?

    Thanks

    12 people visited this thread and didn't figure out, how shame JK.

    First one query URL in the format of <a href=siteurl>Name
    Second one query URL in [space]<a href=siteurl>Siteurl because of adding space.

    So it's a matter of HTML and may be effects SEO but it's not a big factor.
