Link juice distribution between pages?

This is about getting good 'link juice' (page rank) to your website from links...and link juice distribution between pages.

1) What is the best way to utilize the incoming link juice to your homepage, so it is distributed evenly to your other page of your site?

2) What kinda things can you do in your website layout 'prevent' you wasting the incoming link juice? (layout methods etc)?

3) How many pages 'maximum' would you say would be enough for 1 site if you want good link juice distribution to the pages in your site, so that you have a good/even distribution of link juice flowing to each page- so each page has a change of ranking high in the SEs?


For example
if we compare a 5 page website to a 40 page one-
on the 5 page site, each of the 5 pages will get MORE link juice compared to each of the pages on the 40 page one, as this has more pages to distribute the link juice to, so dividing link juce/40 means each page gets less link juice compared to if we just give it to a 5 page site- each page getting less?

so how many pages would you include on a site maximum, for a good amount of link juice for each page, so each page has a change of ranking high in the SEs..
(i know this would be different per niche, but approximately- as a rule of thumb how many pages?)

4) What are common mistake ways people do to make the use of link juice/page rank inefficiently?

Please answer questions 1) - 4)

Thanks, and that question would be fit a SEO Link expert who has had experience in the field, but would be great to hear all of your views

 

I'll take a crack at this.

What you're describing is probably a little difficult to do if you're building links in the natural way. There is no way to distribute link juice between all the pages of your site. Pages will rank based on the keywords and incoming links to them, meaning that it is possible to have subpages rank higher than the homepage.

What you must be cautious of however, that if you are linking back to your site, you do not waste any incoming link juice, especially if you have an issue with canonical URLs. This is where you have the WWW and non-WWW version of pages referenced in incoming links. This will impact your ranking. You will need to set up 301-redirects in this instance.

There's truly no limit on the number of pages that you create. However, larger sites will require more time to be crawled and indexed by the various search engines. Submitting sitemaps can help you in this regard. However, be cautious though, seeing a large number of content pages magically appear could be reason for the search engines to become suspicious.

The most common error that I have seen is canonical URLs and not linking back to their sites correctly. Another one is not targeting their keywords effectively in their anchor tags for their links ... many sites have the "CLICK HERE" link ranked!

Hope this helps.

 

1. Link to strong related site.
2. use nofollow attribute.
3. "Confuse with the question"
4. Paid Links, not related site most common.

I hope this can help.

 

Thanks, it makes a bit more sense now.

"What you're describing is probably a little difficult to do if you're building links in the natural way."

What did you mean by that?

 

I mean having other people link to you because of great content, and seeking out and finding sites that will link to your man WWW site (ie requesting a link via solicitation letter). If your content is great, and there is a perceived benefit, other webmasters and bloggers will link to you naturally. I'm seeing it happening on my new blog now, and it's been happening on the 20 - 30 other sites that I run as well.

As content becomes recognized as well-written, and valuable in an occupied niche, it will encourage people to link to you - and some articles will get more links than others. It's natural.
