all of your questions are answered in the post. and topicaly correct is if the targeted keywords are in the title and or content, and they are in over 80 %, you continue to beat a dead mule.
The link is directly from yahoo, and i already explained that you corrupted your results with a "site" command in it. The results are from internal and external links pointing to the site, therefore, and credited link.
"The example i used above shows you the amount of backlinks." No, it shows a mix or sample of indexed pages and links. Not the whole story.
See above for your next answer.
Quoter from your command as posted "linkdomain:
Fabric - Blinds - Lamps - Mirrors - Interior Decorating - Home Decor - Area Rugs - Comforters - Curtain Rod - Sculpture - Fur - Fabric Store -site:www.interiormall.com"
Site command in it.
I also stated that you can get different results from different datacenters., but 2,200 is way off.
Another quote "I rather have 10 incoming links from topically relevant pages then a 1000 from pages that has nothing to do with my content
So in my opinion it's more then a numbers race."
I have just shown you that
almost all of their links are extremely related and targeted.
Next one, another quote from you "Depends, if it's not topically relevant it's not." They are OVER 80% Topicaly correct as you state, and they are SEO Relevent.
"Bragging does not convince me that increasing PR is based on having more incoming links then a random site you came up with or any site for that matter.
If a PR 4 site on any given topic has 1000 links it does not mean i have to get specifically more then 1000 links in order to even get the chance getting a similar or better PR.
And with all due respect, i really have no idea who you are or the reputation you speak of.
You may be the utmost respected individual in the SEO industry but your opinions don't fly with me simply because A: Your backlink search is flat out wrong and B: i believe in the power of topically relevant backlinks and not an X amount of backlinks to increase your PR and your rankings.
Cheers,
Edwin"
And it was not a random site, it was a top 10 site for his targeted keywords. so again, you are assuming wrongly
My backlink search is from Yahoo, if you have a problem with it, take it up with yahoo, i also get similar results in altavista and alltheweb. Google only gives a sample of links.
So if my backlink results are wrong, then Yahoo is wrong and you are right. So, you are now smarter than the engineers of Yahoo. Congratulations!
And again, the links are topicaly related. Please try to understand the basics.
Your opinion and my opinion does not count. the search engines are what counts. and the search engines are where i get my information.
there is no guesswork involved and it is not a matter of opinion. it is a matter of the information avalible to do a solid analysis.
nothing more.
