Today’s question comes from a poster over at the DP forums, he asks:
My site is have PR4 but the backlinks from google is very small. What are the best methods to get backlinks from google?
I hear this question quite frequently.
The link: command in Google is a funny tool nowadays. Since Google knows only webmasters, SEO and marketing people use the link: command, they decided to get a little tricky with all of us. The link: command only shows a small sampling of the true amount of backlinks Google has found.
A better subsitution would be to use Yahoo!. Yahoo! isn’t stingy with what they show you.
Another tool you can use, if you still want to use Google, is Google’s Webmaster Central. Their are a host of tools to use in this section. If you’d like to know if you’re getting incoming links to deep pages of your site, Webmaster Central will show you where they’re coming.
If you’re looking for desktop application, Aaron Wall’s Backlink Analyzer is an amazing FREE software that I’ve used over and over again. Really robust.
