Yesterday I reported on issues with Yahoo Site Explorer. It now appears that Yahoo Site Explorer is operating just fine.
With yesterday's issues, we reported that people were having problems accessing the tool. A DigitalPoint Forums thread has reports of people noticing a huge drop in the link counts for their domains around three or four days ago. Just in the past 24-hours, webmasters started noticing the link counts coming back to their normal numbers.
Looks like the backlinks are back to what they were before for my sites, as well.
Good to hear.
