This page before you click "post new topic" has a PR3 I suspect this exact post you are looking at is a PR0 or n/a. How many PR0 or n/a links = a link to your site on a PR3 and above site? Is it even possible to quantify? I am getting a strong impression that you need links on big company sites to go that final mile to the top and this remains a sticking point as you then need contacts for that to occur. Your thoughts SEO bredren? (and sisters too)
You are quite right. You don't get links from sites with genuinely high PR. But at the same time why bother? PR does nothing in the serp's, it does nothing for traffic. It's just a metric which is more often than not faked. And if sites with genuinely high PR give you a little extra bounce and there are those who believe otherwise, rather look at the factors which contribute to the PR they have. These are what are important not the PR which is little more than tinsel and window dressing.
I agree to khanter, We should not targeting only the PR system. The thing which matters here is the popularity and relevance of that linked site.
I did see a chart floating around sometimes back about how many links from what PR needed to achieve a certain PR. I remember seeing the hardest jump is from PR5 to PR6. I can't find it right now by maybe you can google it. And for idiots who says PR dont matter, news for you, SERP and traffic also dont matter, you know what matters? conversion and cash in you pockets, so just shut your yap with PR dont matter crap, your saying nothing new. When somebody ask about PR, he wants to know about PR
Is this your way of saying that it's OK to fake PR if it is going to help you to sucker the next one that comes along? Do you ever wonder why Google gets the feeling it has to dish out a backhand every now and again? Talk like this is cheap but it translates into expensive mistakes for those who don't know.
Did I say anything about fake PR? twist much? all am saying is when someone ask about PR he wants to know about PR.
The OP was asking how you get to the front of the search results and was questioning the relevance of PR And the answers to those two questions are simple enough As a rule most of us don't get links from pages that have genuinely high PR That is why they have high PR Sites that are offering high PR links are padding the price Buying PR is dumb PR is a metric that does nothing for your site in the serp's If established sites with high PR give you an additional boost its the factors that contribute to their PR rather than the PR itself which does it And the conclusion is: Forget about PR. It is either unobtainable or not real It has little or no impact in the serp's Rather build links from sites that look as if they are going to last Build links from sites that look useful Know the difference between networking and link building Do you disagree with any of that? If so why?
Gees man, you like making shit up dont you? nowhere did I see buying PR, fake PR etc in the questions, anyway, believe what you will, why dont you talk about hosting and server location too, you might as well
Sorry. I just thought you were saying that one should go to any lengths to get a sale and it does concern me that there are still people who believe that PR helps sites move through the serp's

See what I mean. This is frightening stuff and with all the lose talk its not surprising they are confused and disorientated.
Maybe but PR and serp's are mutually exclusive. There is little or no relationship the one with the other. And whilst there is a lot of talk about relevancy no one really knows. It is a nice idea however and if it helps to foster a more responsible approach to link building, thats value enough. Its just a pity there is still so much hot air and talk about PR.
