Why Are My Links Dropping

Raptors · 08-17-2010, 10:46 AM

Hi, on my website I use to have according to yahoo site explorer about 350 links but it has been dropping steadily and now there at 236. Does any body no why this is.

Thanks

Could be a number of reasons. Do you know where a lot of these links were from? If from forums/forum profiles, sometimes, depending on how many people use the forum for that sole purpose, the forum owners will drop accounts. Also, I've found that if you comment on blogs, sometimes the comment gets spread around that blog like wildfire as it shows up under things like "Top Commenter," etc. And eventually those will drop off as someone else's comments overtake yours in that dept. Those are two I've personally experienced, but I'm sure there are other possible reasons.

I think that might be the reason. There was two blogs I posted on that I noticed yahoo site explorer said I had a link from every page on the blog.
