Google Backlinks Recognition Question

Hi All

If I can see that a page that contains a link to my site has been cached, why is that link not showing up in the Google Backlinks to my site? Is it just a question of time?

Thanks

The link: command is intentionally broken and will never report the correct number of links. If it's inside webmaster tools I think there is a small delay (maybe up to a week) for them to show. I haven't used webmaster tools for sometime though so it may have changed.

It might not show in google as it will take some time. You can check in Yahoo though. It will show definitely
