I'm still very new to SEO marketing so please excuse my inexperience.

A few months back, we used marketleap.com and found over 34 inbound links to our site on google. For some reason, it only says we just have 8 now.

I'm quite certain we have well over 150 inbound links because I exchanged links with many subject related sites. Alexa also says we have over 150 inbound links.

What's the deal with google ya think?

A. G only gives a sample of links.
B. G is a bit more discerning, so links that may impress Y! or MSN, G will ignore...

To get it from Yahoo instead.

Try...
http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/

SiteExplorer shows a lot of worthless links, but I think they show pretty much all of them.
