Inbound links from Google

[rankland]

One of my directories have 180 inbound links from rankland is this going to hurt my site?......

http://www.linkunow.com has the links could someone tell me if this is a problem?

I don't think any one way links cant hurt you, as long as your not linking back you should be fine

[tinotriste]

It would only hurt if you suddenly get thousands of links to the site.
As long that you keep it natural is ok

I had up to 262 inbound in 4 days ago google dropped my site to 55.... I dont exspect that to stay there, but googles alway changing his bot. To answer your question though for quite some time but at the update i went to 262, and back down to when i got my first bot to 55 links . Googles up to something id go check your popular links.

The links that Google shows is for entertainment purposes, they don't say anything about your rankings. I've had sites that showed less backlinks than before in the link: command, but received a bunchload of extra visitors because it improved in the serps.

So do inbound links hurt or help your rank on google?

It hurts when google takes them away, and its great when google gives them to you.
