    It shows all of the web pages that have links on them with 'site.com' in the anchor text.

    No, I don't think you are understandingthe difference between 'anchor text' and 'link'.

    If you have a link this is as follows...
    Click Me

    The 'Anchor Text' is 'click me'.
    The 'Link' is 'http://www.digitalpoint.com'.

    If you do a allinanchor:"click me" you will get a list of all of the sites that have a link on them with 'click me' in the anchor text .

    Now here is where it can get confusing. What if you have a link like this...
    www.AdhocAds.com

    In this link, the Anchor text is 'www.AdhocAds.com'
    But the Link actually goes to 'www.digitalpoint.com'.

    Now, if you do a [allinanchor:"www.AdhocAds.com"], the webpage with this link would appear, however it is NOT a link to www.AdhocAds.com at all, but rather a link to www.digitalpoint.com with www.AdhocAds.com in the anchor text.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you for this answer! It really helps!
    Off topic: how to increase reputation of some authors on this forum? For example, if the answer/reply is really good and I want to increase the reputation of the author - can I do it? Or it's done automatically or by moderators?

    In the bottom left hand corner of each post, there are 3 link icons, One for 'Blog this Post', one is a little STAR that will 'Add to this user's Reputation' and one is a triangle that will 'Report Post'. You must be logged in to see them.

    used the 'related' command to find out what other sites are similar to my site: Related: www.coolcouponsavings.com - no results were returned from the query. My site is a coupon site. Does this represent an issue? FYI, I have more than 70 pages out of 100 pages indexed. What might cause no results to return since my site is fairly common.
