if 2 sites have the relevant content, but different language , english - chinese , or chinese - japan, or english - japan or english - german. does link between them count as relevant link?
That is a great question. Without really knowing the answer D) I would say yes! Google definitely has the technology identify if the subject of the inbound link has any relevancy, even if the originating site's language is different. But am very interested to read what other have to say about this.
