    HI all

    I read about page rank in this forum there are many opinion there but i understand only this quality backlinks give u higher page rank right ?

    If this is correct then i seen some site have page rank 5 with 33 backlinks (no quality backlinks).

    So what is actual stretagy of page ranks?

    thx in advance

    If those links are quality links with high pr, then that could be a reason.

    Yes. It doesn't depend only on the backlinks... Content comes first, then..the backlinks from relevant sites.
    well.. No one knows Google algorithm correctly.

    Backlinks but there might be some other factors only known to Google.

    PR is based on more than just the number of backlinks. PR is a complex calculation of 30+ factors at least. However backlinks are good for helping you get a better SERPS ranking

    It is arbitrary at times I swear. I had 2 sites; 1 super crappy with like 10 PR zero backlinks, 1 great site wiht like 5,000 backlinks many from higher PR sites - and they got the same pr..

    I think all the general rules apply, just sometimes you never know

    PageRank IS only about backlinks - yet again people are confusing it with serps.
    The issue of "some site have page rank 5 with 33 backlinks (no quality backlinks)" - impossible to really answer this without knowing where you're getting the info on what and where those backlinks are - remember - google doesn't give more than a 'sampling' of backlinks.

    Am feeling sleepy right now, so i wont go out and check those URL's instep to start analyzing every single back link pointing to them...

    However I just want to let you know that Google only showing few links in their results, that's why you should use Google Webmasters Tools to get more updated information about your backlinks...

    After all even the WMT takes a while to get updated usually 2-4 weeks.

    You can check the backlinks for the domains listed above using Yahoo! and am sure you will get some high PR backlinks in their pointing to them.

    Good luck analyzing ;)

    Unless you're trying to boost PR so that you can sell the site to those that don't know any better, PR is pretty much dead and not really worth worrying about anymore.

    I think you must try in whois Registrant Search: "seung lee" owns about 405 other domains. That mean if He is put her site to back link to another own site i think the pagerank made very high sindrone.com and datacraft-us.com is same owner

    While logically speaking Page Rank and SERP should be related, both often seem to be independent of each other. So getting tons of backlinks from authority sites should definitely increase your own PR, it doesn't necessarily mean you're going to rank high in the Search Engines. Maybe your onsite SEO is poor or offsite there are bad anchor links to your site with the wrong keywords.

    I am always willing to learn. I know that quantity and quality of the backlinks influence the PR and I know that the domainage has got an impact.

    But I have got no clue what the other more or less 28 factors could be. And we are talking about PR. Not SERPs.
