How to Tell When Google's Latest Crawl Occurred?

[esmeco]

I was wondering,how do we know when the latest google crawl ocurred?
Also,about the backlinks,I have a few with a High PR ranking,but they don't show up when I search in google for the backlinks with the "www.example.com".Would it be because the googlebot didn't make his crawl on my website,yet?
Thanks in advance for the reply!

Hi esmeco, and welcome to the forums!

how do we know when the latest google crawl ocurred

If you look in your logfiles - that should show you the last time Googlebot crawled YOUR website.

When you look at your site's listings in the Google SERP's, next to the URL of your page you will see the word "Cached". Click this link and the cached page information contains the date your page was last crawled. On my site different pages are crawled at different intervals by Google.
