    If a website have 300 PR3 pages and I get a back link from each page. Is it same as if I get 300 PR3 back links from more than one websites? i.e. From 50 or 100 websites?

    No, it is not the same. It is better to have backlinks from different sites.

    Try not to get an excessive number of links from the same site, it doesn't look natural to google.

    I used to buy sitewide links because they were cheeper, until two of my sites' rankings went down. There's no way to tell for sure if that was the reason, but now I play it safe.

    Thanks Narrator.

    In my case, I have already got around 10,000 back links (showing yahoo siteexplorer). And this new website is highly related and PR6. I was thinking to buy 300 PR3 links. Will it be safe enough for me?

    Since you already have 10,000+ links it probably couldn't hurt. As long as its a good deal, I would go for it.

    Hi,

    In my own experiences, having back links from more than one website(especially on different IPs) would be more effective for SEO purpose than having the same number of back links from same sources. This would help a lot in increasing link popularity.

    all the best,

    Yes, the diversity of link sources and their quality, everything which makes SEO harder matters for google :p

    According to sousen's suggestion... Is it really worth equal to just one PR3 link even if I get 300 PR3 links from the same domain?

    If this is so, then we people keep saying to comment in forums. In the end, one forum is just one domain?

    It depends on the age of your site. Google wouldn't easily penalize an old site. However, if your site is a new site, that will be dangerous.

    Backlinks from the same domain aren't going to help you too much in the search engines. If you're going to get multiple from the same domain, try to get different anchor text in each and direct the link to different internal pages on your website. I've done some experiments with backlinks from EZineArticles in particular and in my experience no matter how much variation I implement, I see little to no effect from over 12 backlinks from that single domain.

    @hufster.

    Thanks. I understand your point but what if the website that is linking to us is a major player like kayak.com or travel.com.

    In my case, the linking website has PR6 homepage and more than 30 PR4 pages and 300 PR3 pages. None of the pages have more than 10 outgoing links.

    Will this help a little bit more than normal websites?

    We will be paying them a handsome money so that's why i want to get a clear idea.

    Are the links all identical? If they are then Google filters out all but the highest PR few if they are on the same domain. If you can vary the anchor 300 times and perhaps the landing URL a few time, then you are in business.

    This is nonsense..... for example, if you place a banner in the header, footer, sidebar or anywhere else that loads on each page request,
    you will get a "excessive links from the same site". There is no problem with doing so, although the benefits of doing so, with regards to
    rankings is questionable - of course, you are getting your ad in front of more people, thus, more potential click throughs.

    Yep better to have back links from different sites and different IP addresses. Just make sure they are related. Also PR does not matter as much as people think. Just make sure the site is active and well indexed in Google.
