No results? Why?

    I have a few sites that when I try to track their backlinks I get the following message:

    "The request returned the following error:
    Google gave no results"


    One of them for example shows 10,400 pages with a site: command, and I am getting over 1.6k weight with it, so it must have loads of pages in the API, so why am I getting this message?

    What's the URL exactly as you entered it in the keyword tracker? Does it have an http:// on it?

    no, no http since the tracker adds that automaticaly. I tried using both domain.com and www.domain.com and both show no results.

    Back links have nothing to do with the site command. You would need to use the link: command, not the site: command.

    Sorry, I meant pages indexed. Well, both, the tracker shows 0 for everything and says that google shows no results.

    Here's another one

    Talkvbulletin.com


    Same thing, 0 for everything

    It's only going to update when links change. It's primarily a back link tracker, not a pages in URL tracker.
