Google is not Indicating any Links to my site

[DRSearchEngOpt]

We built a new store on another ccTLD and linked to it from some of our other domains in a few locations. I am noticing that with the Google operator command "links:" we are seeing nothing linking to our site anywhere.

Some things to clarify:

• These are not no-follow links
• These pages linking to our new domain are indexed
• The pages being linked to on our new domain are indexed
• This is not a flash site or heavy in JavaScript
• The links existed the day the site was launched so when the new pages were crawled they existed.
• "Site:" command in Google shows me that my new site is indexed.

What could potentially be causing this?  I am trying to get these newer ccTLD's to begin ranking and I understand that I need to get links going to these pages since they are fairly new (2.5 months) so I can outrank the .com in the SE's in those locales.  (Like Google.co.uk)

Hi,

I've got an idea.

You said:

These pages linking to our new domain are indexed

The links existed the day the site was launched so when the new pages were crawled they existed.

SO the question is: were pages linking to new domain re-indexed after you've add those links?

If no, then just add them to "google addURL" for re-index.

Also operator is "link:" not "links:"

Hi,

I believe, and have seen many others here with the same opinion...  find this is a very unreliable way to see links, it is usually very outdated, and a very small percentage of your link portfolio if any.

Personally, I would take operator link: results with a grain of salt.

w00t!
