Hey guys, I've built around 20-30 links with directory and reciprocal links but I'm not seeing them registered on Yahoo or Google. So I wanted to ask how long did it take for your links to be registered? I'm using linkdomain: and links: (this excludes your incoming links from your own domain) to check out the list of links but the links I recently built 3 days ago haven't shown yet. The site is already indexed in both engines and is a PR 1. I appreciate your input.
Usually 2-3 days I start seeing links in yahoo. It all depends how frequently the site with ur link on gets crawled.
Yeah 2-5 days to be indexed. 3 to 4 weeks to be on the first to four pages of a major seo for my main keyword.
Yahoo updates links within a few days - a week tops, but Google won't show some of your links even if they have found them. Google doesn't want to be used as an SEO tool, so they purposely give you incomplete data for things like link:mysite.com the only way you can tell if google found them is if your site climbs.
