    Hello Friends,

    I am in confusion if a link gives value to our website if it is coming from High PR domain but actual URL where site is listed have PR 0 or N/A? For example :

    Google.com have PR - 10

    But a profile on goolge that included my website is google.com/abc/hgghj/etc... and that page have PR 0.

    Do the link from that page to my website counts as value of PR 10 or what? Help will be highly appreciated.

    Thanks:)

    the actual page where the link coming form will have to have its own PR before it can transfer any PR juice to your site

    You will get credit as long as there's a link pointing to your site on that domain regardless the page it's on. But I doubt your profile on google is a dofollow link, you might want to view the page source.

    And if the page is relatively new, it will have a page rank of 0. It takes a few months for Google to calculate the new page's page rank so evenutally your profile page might get some rank.

    sultanofseo is dead on... correct. It does not matter if www.example.com's home page is PR8. If they link to your URL from www.example.com/somefolder/pagename.html and www.example.com/somefolder/pagename.html is a PR1 page then you have a PR1 link. Google will take the 'real' PR value (not the toolbar PR) for www.example.com/somefolder/pagename.html and divide it by the number of followed outbound links on the page. That is how much PR you are being passed.

    Even a PR that shows as gray barred in Google's Toolbar can pass you PR. While the toolbar may show gray (Not currently ranked by Google) because that was it's value the last time Google did an update 2 months ago, for example, they page may currently have a 'real' PR equivalent to PR1 or PR2. The toolbar may just not have been updated yet since they typically update toolbar PR only every 3-4 months. Your 'real' PR is updating constantly and is not visible.

    Something else... make sure the page that links to you is indexed. You won't get credit for the link if it's not indexed.

    Still I am confused. Do a backlink from High PR domain weighs more than if it is coming from low PR domain page. condition is Link is from deep page of that domain and have zero or no PR? I think question is cleared?

    Domains do not have PR, so there is no such thing as a "high PR domain". Each URL within the domain has its own PR.

    The amount of PR that is passed to the target URL is based on the PR of the URL where the link is located and the number of followed outbound links on the page where the link is located.
