I've just discovered how to find out a more accurate number of backlinks* to your site that Google holds. If you just type your domain name into the Google search box, you'll only be shown a few backlinks but if you type the following code, you'll see a much higher, and more likely, number.
@:http //"yourdomain com"
or
@:http //"www yourdomain com"
* backlink = inbound link to your site. The more backlinks, the more popular your site is.
