Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks for that. The home page is redirecting to a version without the trailing slash. Is that what you meant?

Hi,

One of my sites is reporting a duplicate content and page title error.

But it is the same page? And the home page at that. The only difference in the error report is a trailing slash.

www.{mysite}.co.uk

www.{mysite}.co.uk/

Is this an easy htaccess fix?

Many thanks

Thanks for the response.

If Webmaster tools is showing over 1800 incoming links, Alexa is showing over 200 and I can verify many solid links myself from top directories such as Yahoo business directory then why is Google showing none?

What do I need to check or do?

My concern is if Google is showing no backlinks (and if I use link:www.domain.com in Google I get no results) then this will affect the PR and the position in SERPS.

Hi,

I've been getting stuck into some SEO analysis for a company I work for and I am a little confused. I've tried a search to get an answer but this has ended up being more confusing. The company has been around for decades and their website since 1996.

I read everywhere about 'backlinks'. My SEO toolbar shows ZERO backlinks in Google but 218 in Bing. Google Webmaster tools shows nearly 2,000 incoming links from other sites.

Is a backlink the same as an incoming link? Why is this tool showing zero? I am even getting email from SEO spammers saying my backlink count is ZERO. But I can see links everywhere I look to the site.

Also, on the link analysis tool with SEOMOZ a competitor is showing 3000 external showing links with 250,000 total links. My site is showing 50 and 470 respectively.

I  have spent the best part of two years getting the site listed in industry related directories. We have paid for entries in Yahoo and some other high (PR) -ranking directories. Prior to me there was someone else adding the site to directories and getting incoming links from industry related sites. So this has been going on a while.

Why are the backlings showing as zero but links from external sites showing over 1800?

Thanks
