    I'm not really experienced in this field, but I'm pretty sure what's happening is that a lot of the places that you posted backlinks on are becoming backlink havens for a bunch of random links. The site owners who care see this and then remove your links. The other 299 though either have no idea it's happening, don't care, or don't know how to get rid of it. Just keep posting new backlinks.

    i have heard of backlinks disappearing. it not uncommon. but when your links on pages are deleted, your backlinks will disappear. think of it that way. it's the same way majestic seo will tell you your the number of backlinks that have been deleted. try using it to see if the deleted/disappeared numbers conform then you'll be certain your links got deleted. just google 'majestic seo'.

    all the best.

    They jump up and down all the time in YSE for no reason. Some days YSE likes to report half of what it did the week before. Try using Majestic SEO: Site Explorer

    Are you using Profile links? Most profile services including "High PR" profile services, here have a stick rate of 30% or lower after 4 weeks.
    We use a list of forums which have been checked and filtered to have much higher stick rates. 50% after 8 weeks, and after which time they will usually stick forever.

    I think you violated something and I would suggest to continue optimizing your site using off page optimization.

    Backlinks are in a constant state of "Flux".

    The link of great joy and happiness...but this one? This is the one that all window cleaning companies in the free world are inspired by. Hey, where did the sarcasm font go?
