Link development for next PR Update

I am in agreement with everyone also. If I had to guess I would say that 2-3 months is when they start to help your PR.

I say this because on the basis of the last PR update I worked very hard at link building but only did it 3-4 weeks before the update and I believe I should have recieved PR5 (on the basis of previous campaigns), but didnt even move from PR3.

We'll see.

How long do you think high PR links (lets say 5 or more) relevant pages to have positive effects onyour SERP?

 

Well when G also exported its backlink count my best site was my game site that showed right around 350 backlinks and all I did was about a dozen sitewide link exchanges and 200 directory submissions and the site got a PR5 so that just blows your whole 3 -4 month theory right out of the PR water cause non of those sites links were over 2 months old some was only a month old......it just depends on whether Google has indexed those links by the time it exports the toolbar PR

Sure you can get 200 links on different sites link pages or on sites that Google does not visit that often and it would probably take at least 3 months for G to index them all.....Get links on a site that G crawls daily and your links will be picked up within a week

 

The PR of your links does not matter to SERPS its the links quality, age, and anchor text that makes a difference in the SERPS

 

MMm

Ok. I had a property site once which I scrapped as wasn't bringing enough in.

I bought a few links, nothing to heavy and literally there was a Tool Bar Export within a week and it shot from zero to PR5 in a week.

Total luck
But.
That domain I bought from godaddy and still had a cached site on it.

Moral is that the PR is passed on a s a percentage of the domain age, as long as the context and topic has not changed
PM me the domain name
