Can I get PR if no external links?

I think the thread is completely about PR so what for we are talking about contents and domain age??

PR is nothing to do with contents. The more quality backlinks you get the more PR your website will attain. Zero external backlinks is not the solution to get higher page rank..

 

Squidoo I think is a great source of quality back link. Make some quality lens with a link to your site and promote the lens.

 

I agree with most of the people who have commented here, backlinks are important only if you are aiming for a PR4 and above for your website. I have lot of blogs and website of a particular niche. Believe me in my niche a PR2 is also like a PR4 or PR5 in normal niches. But still if i have to aim for PR4 and above I need to have good and valuable backlinks. The higher pagerank backlinks, the better ....

 

PR does depend on content strength.

 

If you've got a good website you certainly can. I've never done any link building and my website is already PR2 (4 months old). Why? Because people come on my site, like what they see and post a link on their blog or on a forum they are a member on to share my site. Due to this I now have (according to Alexa) 51 backlinks all of which are relevant to my site which haven't cost me a penny or a single minute of my time. Google can see that all my backlinks are genuine and I haven't payed out to improve my ranking and they reward me for that.

So my advice is focus on content and quality baclinks should come naturally.

 

You need back links

 

Domain age and content update frequently can help

 

Yes off course you can get the PR without having a single backlinks, It's one of the aspect of the PR not only aspect for PR , Awesome article and other imp. aspects can also lead to better PR.

 

Lets put this simple. With no backlinks, you will earn no PageRank. Backlinks are a sign of your websites popularity and relevance. Without them, you will earn no PR.

 

All who say that you can earn pagerank without backlinks are new in pagerank and this buisness.

WithOUT backlinks your site even don`t get in index of google.

Thanks

 

content is king. i woulmd say , if you have sititors and they are linking from there blog you don't do a thing but you get traffic and pr rank.

 

People That totally depends on this fact:

The intentional surfer model

The original PageRank algorithm reflects the so-called random surfer model, meaning that the PageRank of a particular page is derived from the theoretical probability of visiting that page when clicking on links at random. However, real users do not randomly surf the web, but follow links according to their interest and intention. A page ranking model that reflects the importance of a particular page as a function of how many actual visits it receives by real users is called the intentional surfer model. The Google toolbar sends information to Google for every page visited, and thereby provides a basis for computing PageRank based on the intentional surfer model. The introduction of the nofollow attribute by Google to combat Spamdexing has the side effect that webmasters commonly use it on outgoing link to increase their own PageRank. This causes a loss of actual links for the Web crawlers to follow, thereby making the original PageRank algorithm based on the random surfer model potentially unreliable. Using information about users' browsing habits provided by the Google toolbar partly compensates for the loss of information caused by the nofollow attribute. The SERP rank of a page, which determines a page's actual placement in the search results, is based on a combination of the random surfer model (PageRank) and the intentional surfer model (browsing habits) in addition to other factors

 

Yes, but that means you have backlinks already.

Visitors are coming from search engine. If you haven`t any backlinks you don`t get index in search engines, so 0 visitors.

 

I got a PR2 on one of my sites, and I have no idea how. It had no backlinks, and no good content!

 

quality is the most important for PR, good luck

 

no... i dont think so it would get u PR

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank

You can see aproximative algorithm of Page Rank, content is under 6% fron 100% percent of pagerank algorithm.


Thanks

 

build quality content and other people that read you will link you so you will not have to worry about backlinks.

 

How people will arrive on your site without backlinks?
