Backlink to a noindex page, will it count

    Hi there,

    I got a thought. Google suggests, give a duplicated page a noindex tag on the page and nofollow on the back-link. I agree with Google that most of websites have many similar content webpages. So I put a noindex/follow meta tag on the top of page (but not block it by robots.txt) and for all the links to this page in my own site, I give a nofollow tag on the link.

    Everything seems perfect. BUT...

    Naturally, I will got backlink from outside to the page that I put noindex/follow meta in. So may question is, will the PR juice pass to the noindex page and from the noindex page pass to all the internal links on the page?

    Or if you have good solution about this, I like to know. Thanks

    You need to put "follow" links on the page to other pages on your site but leave it as noindex in meta tag.

    You can google dangling page or dangling links if you want more resources.
