Hello I am some what new to SEO and google optimization, could somebody please explain to me why my site and links do not show up in google link searches unless I add a space between the command and the search target?
Did I miss something in my haste to learn about SEO techniques?Take a look at my site. Miscthings.com. I have seen this happen with other sites that claim to be in a sandbox, while searching for answers in other forums only to find that they are listed with a space added infront of the target search.
When I search using the following google says I have no link popularity (
Boo Hoo no friends)link:miscthings.com
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=& ... tnG=Search
Now try adding the space between link: and the search target in this case Miscthings.com
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=& ... tnG=Search
Google says I have 42 links (
Hoorrrray friends)(Moderator if these url posts are considered inapproriate please remove)
I have noticed this happen while using www.submitexpress.com as well. 0 google link popularity then add the space and google shows the links.
Again, I ask the question, could somebody please explain this to me or direct me to a location that explains this? Is this a google anomoly? Does google affect keyword searches in the same way?
Thanks in advance
