    External links are 100% considered as links from other sites to yours. Backlinks is more general definition, including external links and links from your site to your site too.

    Google Bots doesn't know whether it is your site or others it will simply search the links and calculate the page rank so only it is showing your link as backlink!!

    a backlink is a link from a page to a page.

    Backlinks help determine Pagerank.

    Hey check out googles webmaster tools. It distinguishes this more. However if your settings for your site in the tool is www.url.com, then links from url.com (no www) will show as external, and visa-versa

    Generally, backlinks are considered from "external" sites (which could be subdomains of your main site), but occasionally, "internal" links will show as backlinks - but this is a "good problem".

    lol, am sure your working for them ;)

    it's not a problem, if your website inner pages have some backlinks pointing to them, they will have an extra linking value than other pages in your site (Deep Linking) so it will be considered as a quality link comparing it to a normal page in a sub category in your main categories page... etc...

    Wish i was clear and helpful ;)
