    I have submitted my site in around 100 web directories but my website is not getting backlinks when i check in google although yahoo is showing good numbers.

    What should i do? Should i continue doing directory submission?

    What's the difference between link:site.com and the one at webmaster tool?

    link:site.com seems to show significantly less site ? Why ?

    yeah, you should continue directory submission, and will get backlinks after 2~3 months.

    Directory submission is considered as one of the important way to get backlinks. Similarly article submission, blog posting etc. can add to it. Do it patiently and let time ripe to get back the links.

    Directory submission forms the basis of link building. Submission to 100 odd directories is too less a number to give up on it.
    I think it should be an ongoing process at a steady pace and only to good quality directories. It'll give you the link popularity and the much needed web presence.

    Hello friend,

    you should continue doing directory submission because it is good for backlinks but you should also do other activities like article submission,forum posting,blog commenting and social bookmarking.
