    I have a PR4 site with less than 5 backlinks.

    Quality counts a whole lot more than quantity.

    And when I say quality, I mean content and backlinks.

    Many people think a whole lot of backlinks will increase your
    PR. It does, to an extent. But I still would pay attention to
    quality.

    Here's a twist. Do high PR sites have high PR because of backlinks,
    or do they have a lot of backlinks because of high PR?

    If you get 1,000 useless backlinks, they will do nothing.

    Get 5 fantastic backlinks and you are well on your way.

    What is an example of one quality backlink? A link in your sig here.

    So is google pagerank mostly based on your backlinks from high PR sites or is it a number of things?

    Backlinks plays a vital role for PR. But thats not the only factor. Even without any backlink you can get PR.

    No, I don't think backlinks are most important, and yes - you can get PR without external links ;)

    If the content is really nice, then you will get page rank.
    It might be without your knowledge too , some sites are linking back to the quality content.

    no matter how often you update your content it will not rank higher without quality backlinks, another thing that matters is the amount of competition in your niche and keywords you are targeting....

    Yes, very possible

    If you have a PR8 Backlink for example you get a PR5 or PR6 automaticly



    No, you can`t. You need PageRank backlinks,

    I started a finance blog (cochimetl.blogspot.com) last year. In its first PR update, it got 3/10. That was unbelievable, because I never carried about that blog, as a result of this, the blog did not have any backlinks. Then the rank got down to 0/10 as you can guess.

    Even if you yourself do not indulge in getting backlinks yourself, great content of yours would automatically force people to link to your info and article... giving you back links in a natural way! :)

    Hence... I find the question a bit hypothetical, as good/original content can hardly remain devoid of any back links! :rolleyes:

    I agree. The answer is YES. You can get PR without back links. But you will not get high PR unless you have good back links.

    PR1 is possible without back links as long content is of excellent quality, other on-page SEO done and plenty of internal linking within other pages on the site.

    I have experienced this more than once but like I said, I do not know if you can go beyond PR1 without back links.

    Anyway, natural back links will always develop as well if your content is very good. Bloggers and other websites will want to link to you without any link exchange, sales or blog commenting. So eventually your PR will climb.

    Remember that back links is only one factor, albeit the most important factor, but nevertheless there are other factors.

    Don't create 10 blogs and spread your efforts among them. Focus on one. Write good quality content or hire a professional writer. Optimize your content, title, headings and link between pages. External linking to reputable, relevant high PR websites helps with visibility, but not sure about PR.

    pagerank is so Google 1.0 ..and now we are at Google 2.0 maybe 3.0 .. so many factors...

    but... "content is king" will always be true.. say it every time you to go bed and say it the first thing you wake up .. you will be on your way to online success...

    "content is king" .. "content is king" ... "content is king". .
