Why so few backlinks?

    I don't understand why there's such a huge discrepancy between the backlinks found in Yahoo and AllTheWeb and Google. According to my stats, I have several thousand backlinks in Yahoo/AllTheWeb, but for Google I have a grand total of... 2. :eek:

    Is this because Google doesn't update as quickly as the other search engines do, or is this indicative of a serious problem?

    Google does not disclose the real number of backlinks, AND the updates that allow 'us' to see them only happen about once every 3-4 months.

    If you want a better idea of how many backlinks Google sees for you, check out the free Google Webmaster Tools.

    Thanks, I already had Google Webmasters but I didnt know what to look for. I checked for the links and sure enough Google listed over 1000 backlinks. That's MUCH more like it. :D

    Just give it some time, with good traffic I'm sure content will come. I'm still new to all this, but it's fun.

    Google doesn't show you all the backlinks. They never disclose everything to anybody.

    G's webmaster central is definitely a better way to check backlinks than say Yahoo or MSN and gives more accurate reports.
