Hi Zack,

bad news...I've posted a few links on Google's My Business account, but - a week later - these backlinks are still not showing up in the Google console.

Nice idea, worth a try, but does not seem to work - for me at least.

Cheers,

Greg

Hi Gary,

that's good advice, and thanks for taking the time to respond.

This question is about backlinks, and helping Google to find those backlinks. Your advice will influence other sites to set up backlinks, but could you please help us understand how these points 1-4 could help Google take note of those new backlinks?

All the best,

Greg

Hi Zack,

I've not had a Google Business account, since that's primarily for bricks-n-mortar...but I've applied for one now. May take a few days to get verified, but I'll try your suggestion and let you know.

Cheers,

Greg

Hi Zack,

sorry, not sure I understand what you mean. Could you explain how to post pages in Google updates?

Thanks,

Greg

Hi all,

I've got the exact same question!

Hi Dave - thanks for the pointer to that article. However, what I (and I'm guessing the OP) would really like is to inform Google about new backlinks to my site.

I've created a "backlinks" page on my website listing these but does that look spammy? Would this approach hinder rather than help?

What is the best way to tell Google about new backlinks? All guidance much appreciated!

Many thanks,

Greg

PS This related artivle is also really good, but not quite what I'm after:
