Hey folks, I have been posting a lot of links, but I only see the links i have posted to one site in Yahoo site explorer. Does it periodically look for links or something like that.. Does anyone know why I would not see any of the links..
It takes a while. Some of my links to one of my sites didn't show up in yahoo explorer until a couple weeks later. But don't worry about this too much. Google will likely see and factor them into your rankings long before yahoo reflects the reality.
Don't expect to see all your links with google. You generally don't. But google is actually factoring them in, and from my experience, they get factored into your place in the search results way ahead of them showing up in yahoo site explorer.
It could take up to a couple of weeks. Enough time to focus on actually building more backlinks instead of checking out their number
Google only show backlinks that google deems as authentic, and worthy of contributing to your pagerank. You can see all of the link google has judged as being of value in Google Webmaster Central. However, keep in mind, as with anything with Google, it can take a few MONTHS. They only update backlinks and pagerank for everyone to see a few times per year.
It depends on the site where you have the links. Yahoo visits each site based on a schedule. Some sites are re-visited several times daily, while others are only visited a few times a year. After the Yahoo crawler has re-visited the site it takes usually a few days until the "findings" show up in Yahoo site explorer.
