Hey guys, quick question. Does a page lose link juice when it gives link juice? If I link to an outside site, do I lose that same amount of link juice or is it just applied to there site and not removed from mine? I understand that linking to a competitor can in turn help him and hurt me (if he then is seen as more relevant than me to google) but does it have a direct relation to hurting/removing my page link juice? Hope this all makes sense. Thanks
Proper outbound linking is a key factor with off-page optimization. However, in some instances it's not viable to link to your competitors; this is true for e-commerce sites. When you say link juice are you referring to the value of the link itself or Pagerank? Yes, you pass on Pagerank to external AND internal web pages when you link to them.
Yes, link juice flows out supposedly... but the effect is very minimal to be judged. You should not bother about link juice sculpting as dofollow outgoing links gives you good benefits.
