Yesterday I had 7000 yahoo backlinks. I have built them up over 2 months. My google backlinks are following closely behind, I currently have 6,600 google backlinks. Yahoo seems to find the backlinks first and google finds them about 2 weeks later. Although you can only see the links in google webmaster account. However, this morning, I woke to find I had 15,000 yahoo backlinks. 15,000!!!! I have been working full-time on SEO, but I'm not that good. So I checked again 2 hours later and its 17,000!!!!! Yahoo has gone NUTS.
It looks like you have a bunch of sitewide links on blogs. When you get these types of sitewide blog links your Yahoo backlinks can grow quite quickly as Yahoo keeps indexing new pages of those blogs.
yea, I do have a good number of sitewide links. I found this a good way to get backlinks. I do think this is an error though. I haven't got that many links. Maybe it will drop down soon...
This is good news, I was expecting you to say 10'000 have suddenly gone! How have you been able to build them up so fast?
I congratulate you on your achievements and perhaps you should look at a few of those backlinks and see who is linking to you and find the real source of this spike of backlinks. Maybe even tell us.
Why not just do backlinks for my site intead? I would be glad if you can made it 20,000 on both Yahoo or Google. lol. Congrats!
Can i ask which part of google webmaster account does it say backlinks, all i can find is the standard link: querie search in there.. ???
My biggest success was finding blogs in my niche, and searching through their backlinks to find good sites. Then I contact them via email and offer to do an exchange site wide. Some agree, some don't. Some agree because they like the content in the my site and also I'm in the UK and they are in the US so its not a conflict of interest. I stick to my niche though, I don't really exchange sitewide links with blogs or websites outside mu niche unless they go on my links page. I have got quite a few links from forum signatures and blog posts. That's all really...no secrets...just that. I go to > 'Webmaster' > 'Links' > Pages with External Links Yea. It was 17 thousand until this morning. Down to 15,000. I still think it is an error. I hope not though. I will try and find out where the links are coming from and let you guys know.
So you didn't check yet ? you have to check this out first i think that where your links are coming from ...?
I don't know how. I can only view the first 1000 using yahoo and other sites. Does anyone know a site where I can view all 15,000?
