About a week ago I commented around 30 dofollow blogs. I was wondering when I would start to see those links when I do a backlink search, cause they aren't coming up yet.
are you checking your backlinks with google or yahoo? if google they can take months to show!. also some blogs do not publish instantly. they need to be approved first.
a week ago is quite too soon, wait a month to be sure, but definitively don't count on google to show you accurate backlinks, prefer yahoo site explorer for this task.
wait atleast a month to get everything in place and you will find it. the same problem happened to me when i was doing it first time but the simple solution is to wait and watch.
Took me about 8 months till I saw a real jump in my Google rankings and traffic (doubled). But I did a lot more link building than 30 dofollow blogs ... :s
Setup your google webmaster tools and keep an eye on your links in there. And also setup your yahoo site explorer, that is another place you should be keeping an eye on your links. Depending on the site you commented on, how often they update, how often google crawls the site, do they submit a site map,,,,, lots of little factors - I have seen links appear anywhere from 2 - 6 weeks. On a couple of sites, I have seen the links appear as soon as a week after they were posted. On another site, as long as 6 or 8 weeks.
if you want to check your back link than check it into yahoo site explorer because in google it will take time to update or after a month you will get good result.
I would say a month is a good amount of time. You obviously have to wait for google to index the pages where your links are, so this can take time.
How fast you see results will depend on a few factors, including how soon those blogs are cached and how often they are updated. With the system I use for link building it only takes a week or 2 to see huge results but that again depends on the competition of the keywords I am trying to rank for. For every link I build I have a targeted phrase I am aiming for.
You should go back to those posts (if you remember) and check if they are approved (no tool is good enough to give exact backlinks), coz usually blog comments are deleted.
Check your backlink in google and Yahoo Here. Yahoo- siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com Google- link:yoursite.com hope it helps
Persoanlly I prefer www.marketleap.com for backlink checking. Also, I'd be amazed if you can actually see the effect of 30 blog comments on your SERPs. They're not exactly the highest quality links.
So if google takes so long to update the backlinks, it would take that long for the PRs to be updated????
From my experience it will take around 2 weeks to notice SEO effect. Sometimes it may take around 2 to 4 weeks.
