{hopfully this topic is in the right spot} As I check the 'iwebtool' I noticed for a few days that my backlinks have flopped for a site I got. Actually they flopped about 3 days ago. from like 2000 backlinks to 41. Why is this, and is anyone else having a problem like this?
my backlinks are increasing 1000 everyday at iwebtool.i dont think there is a problem with iwebtool.Do you track your backlinks or link exchanges?
Backlinks are always changing especially when you used third party tools... What did you see when you log into your Google Sitemap -> Links section?
I assumed that submitting to directories would get backlinks. And the iwebtool thing was showing some good returns for the effort I made, but now it's all gone. I checked out the google webmaster area. All too confusing to me. It's saying 3880(around) external for my site. I'm not very good at this sitemap thing. I was looking at the diagnostic thing and there a an error report which got me confused. Web crawl errors = 402 errors. most of the errors are weird it's like http://mysite.com/chinese.php No idea what's up with the backlinks and sitemapping.
Just enter link:www.yoursite.com into the first page at Yahoo. It will take you into Site Explorer. There are a couple of other threads in the Google section where people are noting their links are all over the place right now. Maybe a linkupdate by Google is causing the fluctuations? My links have changed significantly for a site in the webmaster tool over the last couple of weeks.
have you ever removed any pages ? l had the same problems when my pages are suspended or when l removed some parts of the forums... that effects much
Yahoo is saying Total Backlinks 8,982. That's good news. iwebtool saying 46 backlinks. Yeah, I did, but doesn't everyone fix broken links and update.
