Yeah, what he said. It would also be helpfult to know the keyword query you are using too.
As for the the various SE's -- Yahoo, AllTheWeb, AltaVista, Inktomi are all pulling from the same database now and that is Yahoo proper. MSN is pulling from Inktomi, but that will be changing her (anticipatedly) in late June to early July when MSN should be showing their own results from the MSNbot index.

That is not entirely true. I have seen a PR0 page show up in a backlink check at Google, albeit a rarity. Oft times PR3 pages will show also. PR4 or higher pages is at best "a blanket statement" and you will even find that a backlink on a PR6 page will NOT show up in that check too.
What you can say is that Google is only showing a "sample" of known backlinks and will not show all of them. How they arrive at this sampling is anybody's guess, but it is not based on PR.
With that said, just because a backlink is not showing up in a Google check does not mean that Google is NOT aware of that backlink -- it just means that Google does not show it for reasons that are only known to Google. Link check queries do NOT follow the same algo rules of normal queries. |
