Does a high PR subpage help home page PR?

    For example, if I have a PR5 blog post on my site, will that help the PR of the main page at all?

    I can only guess, but I'm pretty sure it will help for sure if you link it good.

    Assuming it links back to the main page, of course it will help.

    Ok thanks. Hope you guys are right, because one of my blog posts has about 10 PR4-5 backlinks on a 6 day old site I just started.

    Pages earn PR value independently of each other, and can pass value between each other within the same domain (easier when on same domain than from another domain, in fact). By "link it good," I assume grg means to use anchor text relevant to your home page, or at least make sure it's a text link. Maybe a few embedded anchor text in the body of the page just for good measure ;)

    frodosringfinger: That's nice. Good luck with your project then.


    MLuirette: No, I meant good internal linking.

    yes, every high pr page on your site will help your other pages to get better page rank.

    pr will pass from high pr to low pr pages

    Yes, It will helps only if it's linked to the homepage or to any page linking to the homepage but direct link to the home page from the high pr is much better.

    It will help for sure!

    My theory when developing websites is to never have pages more than 2-3 clicks away from each other. A good linking structure for your users also helps the SEs to index your pages, and helps to share PR among them all.

    It should, as long as there's a link back to the homepage.

    Yes it will help. Then more PR links on your site then better.
