February 6, 2007 Ok, so we all know how important IBL’s are for ranking in Google. I’ve gone over the importance and what factors are taken into account, but one of the most frustrating thing was the idea that you never really had an idea at how many links you were getting credit for from Google.

This is incredible news. This should help us all understand a bit more on how Google determines where you stand. But also keep in mind that this is new, and as such, will not be void of inconsistencies or errors. But again, and excellent step forward in understanding how the Big G works.
