PR 8 site linking to a PR 1 site - - Question.

    A question for some of you Google PR Guru's.

    Scenario: PR1 site with a PR8 site linking to it on its front page since August 15, 07. Also, it has several other low PR sites 0-3 linking to it for a few months.

    1. What do you predict the PR to be as a minimum at the next update?

    Thanks

    Geocities is a PR 8 site. You can create your pages in Geocities and link your PR 0 site to you Geocities page. What does that mean? Nothing. PR is nothing. The site's PR depends on manay things and linking from a PR 8 site doies not really carry that much value.

    i would say minimum pr5.. it depends on number of outbound link on the pr8 page and it page rank strength itself.

    also pr1 should be google friendly and not pointing to bad neighborhood's.

    If it is relevant site, you can expect PR 6-7 but if not then around PR4-5.
    Check out following site.
    Statcounter.com PR9 : there are only 12-15 links on home page but none of these site ranking pr8.
    It depends on relevancy.

    Statcounter does not pass PR. With the PR8 you may get a 6 or 5 if its factored in to this update. It does depend on how solid the PR8 is.

    And what does that link tell me? Sorry but i prefer to believe what i have read on Matt Cutts blog, the StatCounter forums and many other places. Also the fact i know someone who had a link up there and it didn't positively effect their PR.

    One Pr 8 can give you a Pr 6 (theoretically) but it depends ...

    What I would like to say here, only home page is not passing the PR but other subpages are passing. The above link is actually showing that which page form statcounter is passing PR.
    It’s right that some high PR sites including yahoo does not pass PR. But it is some thing that might be half truth.

    How would that tool know Google's Pagerank adjustments?

    Matt Cutts even said at SES San Jose, Google can and does prevent domains passing PageRank, pages passing Pagerank as well as pages passing Pagerank to only specific URL's on the page.

    I could code that tool in about 15 minutes, it takes the URL's from a Google link: command (which is just a random sampling) and displays the output URL's in order of their PageRank value with a pretty button next to them.

    Its nothing to do with that tool it is just to analyze faster, if you check result for link:www.worldsubmit.com in google you will get a result.

    And in result page of google, you will see a url from statcounter which is linking back to worldsubmit.com
    If PR is not passed then why it will show a link?
    So my point is Hompage is not passing PR but sub pages of statcounter.com are passing PR.

    Nofollows can show too and they don't pass PR.

    Ok look at it this way, my friend invested a few $K on a StatCounter link for his PR4 site. Why after the next PR update he didn't go up? Surely having a bunch of PR8 page backlinks would push him to a PR5 no?

    Fine, I will agree with your statement just show me a single example of
    Nofollow link which is showing in google link query as a link.

    No follow shouldnt be there, not more than 20 links on the page, the page should have PR8 and not the site itself, it should be related theme site, if all of these are satisfied, then you should expect a minimum PR4 and a max of PR6 (provided you have few more PR2,3, backlinks out there), cheers

    A related PR8 site with only a few links on it should boost a PR1 to somewhere around a PR5.

    Thanks. I forgot about that tool. It shows this:

    Current PR - 1
    Predicted - 4
    Accuracy - 74.1%
    Backlinks - 206

    I will post here when it does update and let everyone know.

    Hey there,

    That site always says we have insufficient backlinks for www.lukebouman.com.

    However, we have over 1,500 backlinks.

    Why does it say that we do not have enough to predict PR?

    Sincerely,
    Travis Walters
