Reciprocal vs BackLinks

whats the difference ...

[moomelman]

I wanted to get some clarification on link terminology used in some of the discussion about the lastest Sept Update.

*Whats the big difference between Reciprocal and BackLinks?

*Do internal links only refer to links within my site pointing to my pages?

*External links ... are these links coming to my site from other pages or pointing outward from my site pages?

Thanks alot

1 Reciprocal links are links exchanged between your site & another, backward links are links shown by the search engine and as the subject of the day is google most people use the toolbar which you can download from here [toolbar.google.com...]

2 yes

3 these are links from other sites pointing to you

this may also help you with some of the other terminology used here
