PR3 but no backlink with link:...

Links to my site appear in search result but not with the link: command

[nobug]

Hi,

It is 3 monthes that I am ranked PR3.

Despite I increase regularly the number of sites linked back to my site, my backlinks remains 0.

I do not understand why as the result on my keywords is giving many of these sites in the result list.

Any light in this mysterious world?

Welcome to WebmasterWorld, nobug.

To show in a link: search, the source URL and the destination URL must both be at least PR4.

For backward links to show up when searching for

link:www.mydomain.com

2 conditions must be met. Your own PageRank must be higher than a low PR4 and the page linking to you must have a PageRank higher than a low PR4. Google will not show any links since your homepage has a PR3.

Got it - thank you.
