Using Google 'Link' command
Hi there,

When you use the command 'link:www.sitename.com' in a search engine you see all the incoming links to your site.

However, when I use the same command to see who links to my site I only get 1 inbound link. That's bizarre and frustrating because I have many more inbound links than that.

Why can't I see or confirm those links when I know they exist and are well established? Do you know how to rectify that? Is it the way the site links to mine for example?

Thanks for your discussion and tips.

Richard.

Google doesn't show you all your inbound links, only the ones who have a PR of over 4 (generally)

just do "www.sitename.com" to find more inbound links
