Google Datacenters Backlink Update

[Ozwold]

I'm currently using the Google datacentre tool to check backlinks and the number of pages cached, and I've noticed that some datacentres are now showing an increase/decrease in backlinks

These are the datacentres in question.

72.14.207.99
72.14.207.104
72.14.207.106

Perhaps we are seeing backlink update?

Is anyone seeing this?

Thanks

Ozwold.

yes I have seen a change in my backlinks total.

I had 225 links on google and now have 219.

I have been adding a steady stream of links, many of them pr 4 and up. I don't understand how I keep going down.
Last update I went from 395 to 225 but have been continually adding decent links.
At the same time my MSN and Yahoo links show in the many thousands. I know they calculate links differently but still I thought I'd have an increase on G.

Also though when I search my links like this link:!www.site.com I show an increase from 800 to 3600 so links have been added.

FYI, we have a related thread over here: Sept. 2005 Google Index Update & Size Increase Coming?.

onedodd, on the link:! search you did, from what I can see, it seems to be the same as if the ! mark is treated as a space. In other words:

[link:!site.com] = [link: site.com] which in turn equals [link site com] a search for all three words, rather than a backlink lookup. I only looked briefly but saw same counts and what seem to be the same results.

The link| command is doing really funky stuff, so I've split that dicussion off over here: What's Link| Versus Link: Showing On Google?.
