backlinks double in one week

[azitro]

Hello,

I use iwebtool to check how many sites linking to my site. Last week it was about 400+ backlinks, yesterday show 1000+ and today 1200+. I didn't even do anything, just submitting to a few directories. I also notice a huge drop in my google rankings from page 1 to page 8.

What could be happening? Please help! -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

Quality counts more than quantity for Google. Assuming that big G did not screw up (sometimes it happens), it is possible that some of the directories to which you had submitted your site are known link farms. It is also possible that other sites in your category (key words) have improved much more than you have, kicking you site back to page 8. Just a thought. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

I have a similar situation - I've done a bit of link exchanging, iwebtools says I went up 300 -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

How accurate is iwebtool on backlinks? Because on PR prediction it shows a completely different number than their backlink tool shows. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

It could be due to some change you made earlier, completely unrelated to you submitting it to directories - what other changes have you made to the website in the past few weeks?

Even if you submit to link farms nothing would happen unless you point links to them. Think of this- Your enemies could just submit your url to link farms and get you out of business. Big Bro G is aware of this and so no problem. Check the links you are pointing to atleast once every three days and run checks on them to see if they are banned. If you suspect anything wrong remove the links immediately. This will help you not get banned yourself. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.

I go up and down a hundred a day through MSN and Yahoo, no idea why, but I'm not too worried. I think the longer the site is around, the "stronger" the backlinks will become. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

Well think of it this way, if you are finding ways to increase your rank by doing things such as directory submissions and whatever, your competitor sites are also doing the same, so it is just a contest for co-competitors. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.
