Link query - using a semicolon instead of a colon

My web site has been active for nearly two months. When I type:

LINK:WWW.DOMAIN.COM

I currently get no results. But when I type:

LINK;WWW.DOMAIN.COM

I see more than one hundred URL's that are linking to my site. Does using the semi-colon instead of the colon give some kind of preview of what is to come?

semicolons are plain ignored, so link;www.example.com is identical to link www.example.com..

it just happens that if a site contains the word "link" and www.example.com it probably contains a link to www.example.com :-)
