    That depends on the SE. For Google, the link will give you no juice, although it may be listed in webmaster tools. Really though, for most webmasters Google is all that matters. Some of the other engines will follow the link, so it may help that way, and of course every link has the potential to bring traffic. So in general, avoid spending time getting such links, but if you can get them easily they don't hurt.
