Backlinks in Google Dropping like Crazy?

Has anyone else noticied that their backlinks have dropped like crazy on some data centers?

Yep, MSN is showing almost 50 times more than G for me.

Across the board, on all my sites, backlinks in Google are showing like 5% of the backlinks they were showing yesterday....

I wouldn't worry too much. This happens to my sites during every BL update. They come back or increase when they're finally done w/ the update.

So just be patient.

thebassman · 03-04-2005, 02:40 PM

Yeah, true enough... guess I just gotta keep watching.

UKZJ007 · 03-04-2005, 02:56 PM

Dropped a lot

thebassman · 03-04-2005, 03:14 PM

Yeah, mine were once in the 12,000 range, and right now, for PhotographyCorner, it's showing 163.

gorillaboy · 03-04-2005, 03:26 PM

One of my sites had 17,000 and now I have 10! But I'm not worried, dudes...this happens every time.

Stupid Google....

jstcrzyengh · 03-04-2005, 07:33 PM

I went up... Go figure

The past 3 updates I went down every time, I don't give a rat's ass about Google anymore to be honest and I feel a lot more relaxed since Google updating is of zero importance to me anymore. And it doesn't change much traffic-wise anyway.

I'm FREE!!!

thebassman · 03-04-2005, 11:24 PM

I'm honestly starting to feel the same way... I get 10 times the traffic from MSN, and 5 times the traffic from Yahoo... I do decently well from Google Images, but hey, it's a photography forum...

Ferre · 03-04-2005, 11:51 PM

same here, my traffic is rising in a very steady paste despite Google's PR and backlinks, even from Google itself and that's what matters to me.

and yep, msn is very generous to me too.
