Google Gives Up Links Information
February 6th, 2007 by pamela
Of course it would be too much to expect Google to give us the actual data (they still need to protect their index from manipulation) but while the new links data shows only a fraction of the links they can track, it provides much more information than the link: operator.
Danny Sullivan at Search Engine Land has given a great overview of just how different the links data is with the new webmaster tool and what can be done with it, including exporting the backlinks in a CSV file.

Google finally gets real with the links count. Now Yahoo have a real competitor in this field. Its been a good week for the SEO community, recieving access from two cracking back link tools from the natural search engines that really matter.
Now its easier to reverse engineer the natural results, working out what ranks a site and why.
The true difference between a good SEO and someone that just thinks they know it all, is what they do with all these new back link resources….. The answer is out there!
