how many links for a pr of 6?

Hi,

Do you know how many links would it take to achieve a pr of 6 in a site? Or how many would it take to go from a pr of 4 to a pr of 6?

Thank you!

 

That would depend on a number of things such as:

1. Relevancy of the page containing the link.
2. PR of the page containing the link.
3. Number of outgoing links on the page containing the link.
... And other things

The key is to just continue building high quality one way links to your site.

 

I agree, but I am being asked by a client to tell him an estimate number of inbound links for him to go from a pr of 4 to a pr of 6, and I'm not really sure if I could give him such number, not even an aproximate one. What do you think?

 

Buy one PR8 link and you should be around pr7 next update or submit to 100000 PR1 directories whatever...

So it could be between 1 and million+

 

Or you could use this calculator.. http://www.thinkbling.com/prcalc/ and read compars articles, it still rocks!

 

Calculators dont quite work... They dont really take into account nofollow, link quality, number of outgoing links, domains age etc Especially after the latest google update glitch

 

Agreed, they don't really work that well. But it gives an indication.

Pagerank consists of so many factors. As said before in the forum, don't go for pagerank but go for serp. A higher pagerank will come eventually, work and work and build and build even more content to your websites and the rest will follow.

 

Tru, like i say: "Pr is an indicator. Heating up your thermometer when you want hot weather wont quite help"

 

One Pr8 and your a 7?? that true or a kind word of sarcastic advice lol

 

I've got a PR 6 from...one PR 6 link.

 

It depends on the amount of outgoing links but it should be about right... I got PR6 from PR6 myself before.

By the way, it will cost you quite a bit...

 

So you mean if a site got a link from a page with a pr of 6 with only that link it could receive a pr of 6 itself? Wouldn't it take a large amount of other links too?

 

During that strange PR update we had around April 1st. A domain i had which was 2 months old got a PR of 5.

It is a blank page. No content, No Page tilte, No keywors and no descrption.

Only had one link from another of my sites homepage which has a PR of 5.

I wouldn't worry about page rank. The only thing that matters is serps.

 

I agree.. my site went from PR 0 to PR 5 in the last update, and the only links I have are a couple from DP posts. Which seems to indicate that PR is kinda worthless now. I notice that NicheBot.com is PR 10, outranking Yahoo.

 

If true, the question is where do I find this 1 pr 8 link?

 

Even one PR7 link can get you a PR6 imo. IMO, it is possible to get to PR4 - PR5 just by submitting to directories etc. but unless you have a website that people link to themselves, sooner or later you will have to look at paid advertising (Ex: Paid directories etc.). Yahoo Directory's a pretty good one imo. It does have a $300 annual fee but if you can afford it, it's worth it imo.

Getting back to your question, I don't think you can answer your client's question with a number. You will have to explain all this to him/her/it

Wazimm: There are heaps of people selling links on the net. Search eBay or have a look at the buy/sell links site in my signature (not many there though at the moment). You can get a permanent PR7 link here for only $500. Good luck!

The PR Update this time has been a bit skewed, yes.

BUT, Nichebot.com's PR10 has got nothing to do with this update. All they did was redirected their Home Page URL to www.google.com. Anybody can do that with similar results. It will disappear once Google updates again.

 

I have been trying to figure this out myself. Usually link calculators dont work good, so I tried something new.

Here is the progress of Google backlinks for one of the webistes Im' working for.

August 2005 >> No. of back links on Google 86 (PR 5)
January 2006 >> No. of back links on Google 230 (PR went to 6 from PR 5)
April 2006 >> No. of back links on Google dropped to 159 (PR back to 5)


Then i did a competitor analyis and checked the number of back links they had on Google and their PR.

Heres the current analysis:

Competitor #1 >> Back Links on Google: 118 - PR: 5
Competitor #2 >> Back Links on Google: 874 - PR: 6
Competitor #3 >> Back Links on Google: 1350 - PR: 7
Competitor #4 >> Back Links on Google: 80 - PR: 5
Competitor #4 >> Back Links on Google: 175 - PR: 6
Competitor #5 >> Back Links on Google: 118 - PR: 5
Competitor #6 >> Back Links on Google: 666 - PR: 7


By looking at some more industry websites, I was able to find out that a count of backlinks between 80 and 160 gives PR 5, anything between 160 and 500 links will give PR 6 and so on. However, this is just an estimate. If the quality of links is good, you can still get PR 6 if you have between 80 and 160 links.

*This method will not be ture if you get 1 link from a PR 7 page and end up at PR 6 with just 4 or 5 back links.

 

if one pr7 links to you only, you might get higher results, but usually, you'd get pr5 from one pr7
