Welcome to the Q&A Forum

The one word answer to this will be ‘ware the white hat’ Actually Link Building is a creative game so the limit to link building is your creativity… but here are my recommendations or you can say the type of links that I prefer to build. Build Relationship Research and find the list of people who are active in your industry they can be bloggers, influencers, business owners, review writers and many… try to reach out to them and build strong relationship as this will help you while you will ask out for links to them. Manual Reach This is hectic but somehow you have to do that no matter what… try to build quality content on you website and reach out to relevant websites and people and request link (while being creative) Guest Blogging Reach out to bloggers and offer them to write about relevant topics for FREE. White Papers Research and create a link worthy white papers and allow your target audience to download it for FREE. Usually the FREE get more natural links Launch a Contest This will help you cater new eye balls and if you contest is interesting and informative at the same time you will defiantly going to get links from bloggers and even magazine sites. Press worthy Activity Introducing a product, major changes in business models or anything that is Press worthy will be helpful to get more and more links from Press websites… The ideas are endless… all you have to do is to put down all of them on the paper and see what is possible for you and what isn’t

Does this data match "link:www.yourwebsite.com" when you put that into Google? This is so rarely updated or accurate I wouldn't worry too much about it. Try Open Site Explorer or go to blekko.com and type in yourwebsite.com /seo which will give you a better analysis. It's also not that the links you have are not being 'recognised' by Google - i.e. if you have a good link, it will be likely to contribute to your ranking, just not available via the link: command.

I'm assuming you mean internal links? If it's internal links, they aren't going to be valued as highly by Google as external links. Just because they show up in OSE doesn't mean they carry a lot of value, it just means they exist. These links will show up for any site. When using OSE, I like to look at only external links to see where their real backlinks are coming from.

Hi, sometimes it's very difficult to find and reduce internal links specially in cms.
