Not showing link backs and related links in Google

[subhzash]

Hi All,

This website has good number of link backs but not showing any results in Google.

I am using this queries for link back link:goodseattickets.com and for related links related:goodseattickets.com

But when I am looking at alexa traffic details here: http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/goodseattickets.com it is showing 467 sites linking in

Please review this site and let me know what went wrong with this site.

Thanks in advance for replies


Regards,
Subhzash

Is there a reason why you aren't using Google Webmaster Tools (assuming that it is your own site)? The links: command was never efficient and GWT replaced it for site owners.
I just tried it for my site and it only showed 4 links.

The only way to see Google backlinks is through webmaster tools. You cannot spy on your competition unless you use a different tool like SEOMOZ OPen Site Explorer or Bleeko for instance.

Thanks for the reply. But when please clarify my doubt why Google is not showing related links. Generally, to find competitors we can use this related:goodseattickets.com

My concern if Google is not showing link:goodseattickets.com then it never show related:goodseattickets.com. Is there any inter relation between link:goodseattickets.com and related:goodseattickets.com??

I have no idea really. I never go that route to find competitors. My competitors have a strong social media presence and it's easy to find those. Others are ranking above and below me in the search results for my high volume search terms. From there I discover who my competitors are. I don't think I've ever used the related search operator to be honest with you.

Who's ranking above and below you?

[subhzash]

I know competitors and my only concern is Did anything went wrong with my website.

There are few sites ticketluck.com, vividseats.com, bargainseatsonline.com for all these search operators related and link are working properly.

[morestar]

OK I found out (and remember) that you must add a space between the colon and your website thus, related: thisdomain.com.

Try it out...

[subhzash]

Yes, its working. But its for the other sites space or without space there are lot of variation in search results. According to this source http://www.googleguide.com/advanced_...s.html#related there should not be any space

I know advanced operators. And site has submitted and verified in GWT. I can the back links in GWT. My only concern is why Google is not showing any results for link:goodseattickets.com and related:goodseattickets.com

I had tested with other websites, which ever site is showing results for link:domain.com is showing results for related:domain.com and vice versa
