what exactly are sitewide links and are they good for SEO. I'm thinking it is where your site is linked on every page of someone elses website. I have a PR 6 site linking to me and i guess he has a dynamic menu so every page he creates i have a link from. Is this good? Yahoo sees like 1900 links pointing back to me and most of them are from his site. whats the info on these sitewide links?
the benefit of these links is a little more then a single link. Do you get traffic from them ? Real Click Thru's ?
Sitewides are very mis-understood, and are good even for Google. The problem is people used to buy sitewides and see results within weeks - now it can take months to see any significant impact. Personally, I wouldn't suggest you touch sitewide links unless you have a realistic idea of what benefits you would expect to get from them - and also unless you had other SEO strategies to work in concert with them.
Sitwide links on a pr 6/10 site should bring you a lot of traffic. Your pr should increase to if I'm not mistaken.
Interesting. I've been contemplating doing some site wides. I have some huge sites, but have been reluctant to add site wide links. Anyone suggest side wide links hurt?
I've never noted sitewides negatively impacting my own sites. Of course, it's worth being sensible with how you apply them, and not turn your sites into free for alls for casinos and viagra links.
My PR for sitewide pages is 6. Equivalent to home page. Rather non-sitewide pages have lower PR. So its debatable issue. Regards
