Backlink Update

For those of you who use Google Webmaster Tools you will notice that there was a recent update to backlinks a couple days ago.

Dm Web Directory added an extra 16,000 backlinks and about 60% or so looked to be from unique websites. The multiple links from the same websites look like they are coming from forum and blog posts with many pages.

It seems like Google is updating backlinks more often in the Webmasters Tools back office now. My only complaint is that I wish they would update the actual "link" command more often so I can judge other websites strength. Of course we can always use the "link" command in Yahoo! but I would like to compare the results with Google also.

For those of you who still don't use the Google Webmaster Tools I suggest you jump on it. You will find out a ton of useful information about your website once you verify it.
