Incoming Links not working
-
The incoming links in the bottom right of the stats page aren’t updating and haven’t been for some time (this is the Google function). It looks like maybe there were some issues a couple months ago, from what I can see in the forums, but if there’s anything current I’m not seeing it.
Is this a known problem and is it being addressed?

I’ve noticed that for the past week. Also noticed that the number of links has dropped when you skip to the next pages.

And a problem with google itself. They are going through some weirdness over there; last week one day my pagerank was 0, the next it was 5.
To see incoming links I generally use Technorati, although it only displays links from registered blogs, not websites. I find it more accurate.
-
And trackbacks coming in from other blogs seem spotty. I had four blogs reference one of my posts and only one showed up in the comments as a trackback. I assume these problems are related.
-
I’ve had a few tracebacks from web sites, but none of them were actually add to my comments.
-
Could someone tell me if this is still an overall issue, or is it just me? I know several bloggers who have linked to me (they told me so), but they have not shown up in my incoming links at all.
Thanks!

Re: Google Alerts
So are mine so one wonders exactly what the problem is and why they are not appearing on our dashboards. -
I’ve got the same problem. Google recently linked to me which upped the traffic, but today the link has vanished. Search terms connect me to other sites which have copied my content, but not to my blog.
-
Have you checked at Technorati to see if the links are being noted there?
I also use Google Alerts. -

Okay, it looks like Google and Technorati still connect to my Post with search terms, but not to my Page.

From what I can see you do not have any static pages on your blog. Static pages do not get the same Google juice that posts do. Moreover, in most cases it takes months for blog posts from new blogs to appear on Google. http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/05/07/why-isnt-my-blog-in-google/
It seems to me that all we are missing is the connection between Google and wordpress.com that results in the appearance on incoming links on our wp.com stats page. I don’t know why this is and staff have yet to comment.

But, I was getting search terms connected to my Page for several days, reflected in the Stats Page and the Google Link in my Stats Page. That’s what I can’t figure, so I signed my blog up again with Google Blog Search.

I am still missing links that I know I should have from Technorati and from what other bloggers are telling me. My blog is not new at all. I am getting search links/referrrals but not incoming links. Any other ideas?
-
I have the problem also of incoming links not showing on my stats page. I know for a fact I am being pinged but it is not showing up on my stats page.
