All of my incoming links to my site are gone in Webmaster Tools!?
-
I just checked webmaster tools and noticed that all of the links I have acquired over the last few months are gone except for 1 website. Did something change just recently? Is this a glitch?

I agree with this post. Google Webmaster Tools seem to have a mind of their own. OSE it!

Not all your inbound links will be listed in webmaster tools. I find it is somewhat of a random selection of your inbound links. A little bit of a splash of what google sees. I've talked to a lot of people about it and nobody really knows exactly what makes google choose the ones that it shows and doesn't show. One thing i have noticed though, is that the links that do tend to stick in there longer are links that are more credible. If you go around posting blog spam, and adding your link in shady places, google often picks up on them for a while, and then drops them after a month or two.
Just stick to classic, honest, strong link building. And don't focus so much on what google "says" is going on inside webmaster tools. Yahoo's link explorer, or OSE are far better at giving the big picture in that department anyway.

Google not found errors in webmaster tool help
Hi, Google Webmaster tools sent me a few messages recently about the jump in the number of 'not found' errors. From 0 to 290 errors, ouch. I know what it's from but I think Google is seeing things. We developed another page/subdomain we're working on with links back to the root domain. Basically a complete list of articles page that lists each article and links back to the root domain. Not sure what Google is crawling but the links that would result in a 'not found' error aren't there. Will these disappear over time? Thanks for the help!
