When do you think that Google will update backlinks?

Good grief ....

On Yahoo I have 631 backlinks
http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p...nlinestore.com

On Altavista I have 540 backlinks
http://www.altavista.com/web/results...ls=1&avkw=qtrp

On Google I have 3 backlinks
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&i...tore.com&meta=

This is really irritating. The Googlebot comes to my site daily sometimes more than once a day. I wish they would just update the backlinks.

Something similar ... on my other site they are way behind too!

On Yahoo I have 25,200 backlinks
http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p...gopinsight.com

On Altavista I have 30,700 backlinks
http://www.altavista.com/web/results...ls=1&avkw=qtrp

On Google I have 1,200 back links
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&i...ight.com&meta=

ERRRRRRR!!! If a insider from Google reads this .... STOP READING THESE BOARDS AND START WORKING!! HAHA

That's just the way it is. It has never shown all links and it has got less useful over the past 18 months or so

Google updates backlinks at the same time as they do PR updates. This happens about once every 90 to 100 days, so the next one shout be sometime late this month.

Even once they update though, don't expect to see that many. Google usually only shows a small sample of your total backlinks.

is it possible to the actual backlink status before google updates.

I was under the impression that Google updated both of these on an on-going basis, with purely the toolbar PR being updated that infrequently. Am I mistaken?

Well ... I wish they would get to work and start doing it more frequently. LOL

search "www.go4expert.com -site:www.go4expert.com" in Google to get the correct no of links to your domain.

Clearly if they wanted to update this more often they could, so the question is why do they only do it every quarter? The second question is why does google not show all links? The answer, I think, is that they are playing down the importance of links because they do not want us to understand their system as if we had the plan we could play to it.

That does not mean that it is any less important than we already think it is!
