As the title says, I wanted to know that, say today I did blog posting or forum posting using "Anchor Text" in keywords. Now in how may days I can expect a link back from there. I tried searching this on Google, but unfortunately come up with nothing so I created a thread. Hope this will clear my doubt. Thanks.
At the same day, even the second you have got the backlink. The question might be when google will calculate your site PR ?
You can expect to see a backlink from that site as soon as Google has re-crawled the page where you submitted your link. In other words, it varies.
google doesn't update backlinks on a daily basis. it can take google 2+ months to update the backlinks. idea is to keep building backlinks and over time, they will show.
It does happen pretty quickly but with the new updates you do not get full credit for a link until it has aged. I think full maturity is 3 months to get a full value for a link. this is to help keep down the gobs of spam that kill the internet.
