google ignoring some backlinks

even from pr4 pages ... question

[top5jamaica]

i've noticed that some backlinks in a particular situation that google used to count .. its no longer counting them.

nothing much has changed ... maybe more links added to the page .,.. pr at 4 still. any thoughts or suggestions? i did a search here but most of the threads on this topic are from 2003.

Backlinks shown by google have not reflected real (PR4+ or otherwise) backlinks for some time.

How do you know that google is not counting them?

Just because a link is not in the backlink sample that Google choose to shoe does not mean that Google is not counting it, or not.

Google only dipays a spinkling of backlinks. In my case 20%

Google still counts them, while simply not to show them, according to GoogleGuy.

What do you that link: can not be worked any more? You can not use this command to find out all of backlink in google index.

Simple answer: NO. I am aware of cases where links from dmoz.org pages with a PR7 don't show on Google with the link: command. The link: command on Google is broken. Possibly on purpose, as few other than webmasters and SEOs actually use it.
