What's next in Google?

and currently, the Google Webmaster tool (also called sitemap tool) Update.


What's New in Sitemap Tool?

The regular user of sitemap tool will notice a new tag in the top navigation menu. That's right the 3rd tab "Links",


Here you can see all the internal and external links to that website. Check on the external links column and find external listings for the website.

Research

I did some query search in Google and compared it with the Google webmaster link tool. It gave me different results. I am really confused! Only Google can answer my question.

The question is…

I did a search in Google with link: query and I got 5 back-links for my website and if I check the link tab in Google webmaster tool, I can see more than 300 links for my website. Why this deviation?

I think Google will soon give an answer for this question

Anyway this is a nice update for all of them who were using Google webmaster tool.

The google pagerank algorihm is very frequently updated and it becomes a difficult task for any websmaster to keep a track and frequently make changes to be in the highest ranked pages . The trend to reward links from content-related web sites continues. Web sites that have focused on gathering quality links, both reciprocal and non-reciprocal, from web sites with related content, shall expect to see their efforts to be successful: a relatively small amount of related links, even if reciprocal, proves to be much more beneficial than thousands of totally unrelated links.
