How to achieve different Levels of Pagerank?

Does anyone know of any certain number or idea on how to achieve each level of PR?

ie. How many links (of what quality) do you need to obtain a PR4?

Or is this completely unknown...

A site claims 1 PR5 link will give you a PR4 at update, which sounds bogus to me.

Any ideas?

It varies so much that there is no formula set in stone that you could work out.
It comes down to how many links your site has coming in and out of it, how many links that sites linking to you have, how many links the sites linking to the sites that are linking to you have... etc etc... it goes on and on.

 

Check this calculator: http://www.thinkbling.com/prcalc/ it's pretty accurate. And these pages explain it very well.. http://www.iprcom.com/papers/pagerank/index.html and http://www.compar.com/infopool/articles/PR-calculation.html

 

wow....nice calculator, is that accurate ?

 

I'm not sure how to raise PR, especially after this most recent update. I have three PR 6 pages linking to a PR 4, and the site is still a PR 4. You'd think three PR 6 sites would raise a website to a PR 5, but I guess not................

 

I dont trust this calculation program since it tells you that only one PR8 site would give you a page rank of 6.

 

As I said, there are too many factors relating to the websites who are linking to you, to be able to determine a page rank.

 

Remember, PR also depends on relevance, too...If a site is totally irrelevant it won't help your PR

 

Also I wonder how much the aging effect will have on it all? That surely would make it near on impossible to do accurate predictions.

It at best would be a guessing game. I know some sites that have many PR7 links yet only achieved a PR3 in the last update.

So.....

Too many variables and really not worth the time trying to work the whole thing out.
Just work on getting quality incoming links and you won't have any issues.

 

I would not try to work on a specific PR strategy. Get topic related links and PR will come - sooner or later. Link growth should be reasonable, too. Too many links coming in too fast might trigger a warning flag at Google.

Well there's isn't any accurate info about that... Only BIG G knows what is does... By the way y would you worry about the pr... The pr that the toolsbar shows is no the true pr of your site.. Just dont bother about it snd continue building links..
