Google Now Displays Complete Backlink Data For Your Website

Posted on | July 22, 2010 | 4 Comments

There is a big change in the Google Webmaster Tools. Historically Google only showed a sample of your back-links (i.e. 10% or less), so webmasters had no way to know how many back-links their websites had according to Google.

People argued that this was a measure to prevent people from trying to reverse engineer Google’s search algorithm, however, Google has just changed this feature. If you log into your Webmaster Tools account now, under the “Site Analysis” and “Links to your site” section you’ll find the complete back-link data for your website.

The benefits of having back-links are:

The more links a website has coming into it, the more authoritative and popular it looks to the search engines. This in turn leads to the website in question climbing the search engine rankings, which as we all know is one of the main targets for any personal or business website owner.

Additionally, back-links offer a wonderful way of expanding your network of contacts – if people are reading something on one website and they see your link, they will usually check out your site to at least see what’s there. This could lead to new customers or sales if you’re a business, or simply new friends if you’re a blogger!
