What are the following results REALLY saying?

    Okay ... I've been keeping an eye on my of my keywords and the results I'm getting from MDar's tool baffle me. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the tool but these results are just not making sense to me. As you can see I'm 19 in serps for my keyword ... yet I *think* I should be ranking a little better than some of the sites listed in the top 10.

    My questions are as follows:

    1)Why would site listed 9th even crack the top 10? No allin anchor rating and fewer links than my site.

    2)Site ranked 1 has no allin rating, fewer links than the second listed site and same PR?

    3)Site listed as number 6 WTF?

    thanks for your feedback

    alibaba appears high in lots of searches. i think it has a ton of inbound links, so it naturally helps its ranking. i'm sure leather.com is the same way

    Lorien I would guess but according to the screenshot:

    Leather.com google is reporting 152
    hotproducts.alibaba.com google is reporting 20 with no anchors

    I just don't get it!

    Dont use google for link counts as they do not show a full listing. Try MSN, I have found them to be a better indicator
