hey warriors!

happy saturday

does anyone know what a "yahoo page link" refers too?

it's on the seobook/toolbar
it's actually indicated as "Y! page links"
I assume that's yahoo.....

if it's just in general "the number of page links"
then why not reference google?

just a bit confused

if you know the real answer chime in, I could use the helper!
thank you warrior mates!

dano~

    It's the number of backlinks found in Yahoo Site Explorer:

    Because yahoo is the only semi-reliable source when it comes to how many backlinks a site has.

    You can use google webmaster tools but third party applications don't have access to that information.

        would any link be considered a "yahoo page link?"

        if you happen to know
