    for example, ebay.com
    use google to search "link to"
    link: ebay.com
    230,000 results

    use google to search "content contains"
    "ebay.com"
    11,900,000 results


    google: "link to" and "content contains"
    whats the difference?
    how does google distinguish between them?
    and i guess only "link to" increase a website's pagerank , am i correct?

    <a href="http://www.ebay.com">click me</a> <-- counts for "link to"

    ebay.com <-- counts for "page contains"

    it only helps PR if it's hyperlinked.
