    Does the Pr of a website influence on the value of the links you are getting from it? Is PR still an important factor?

    I feel it is. PR is a way to gauge quality. Websites that are low quality usually have low PR, unless they are new.

    For me the PR of my websites is not improtant. SERP is more important for me. However, PR can be important for you if you want to sell links on your website.

    PR is only one criteria of ranking out of hundreds. PR these days don't put much of an influence on ranking. thats why you will see a PR0 site outranking a PR3 sites for a given keyword. just keep building links and dont worry about PR cause with enough backlinks, your Pr will increase anyways.

    Is the PR of the URL being ranked a ranking factor? yes
    Does the PR of a page linking to the URL being ranked affect ranking? Yes
    Is PR as important as it used to be in the overall ranking algorithm? No

    As Google adds more and more ranking factors, each individual factor will become less and less important.

    PR is most important factor because , this PR value is actually calculated by performing an iterative analysis of the backlinks to a webpage. PR means significance of any webpage so it is used by Google as one of the factors to determine their desired value of SERP’S.

    It important for your Backlinks with high PR

    but I think it not important for your money site.

    If you have many high PR backlink, your keyword is very easy to go up on SE

    Yes, of course the higher the PR the better performance the site is. User usually find site that top on each search engine because they find it as a good and quality source of information.
