I was just curious why is it that a site can have 100+ back links with yahoo and 0 with Google. Maybe a couple here and their with MSN and the others. how is this decided ? Why goes Google not give credit for the same back links?
Google are just a lot more stricter and what URLs they display publicly. Google still count them though, how else would a site with 0 backlinks accorrding to Google have a PR? Yahoo is probably best for determining backlinks
I just found this tool not long ago. I had a new site that was showing only 2 backlinks in google for months. I went into the Google Webmaster area and saw hundreds. It was driving me nuts!
