Hello, I have a question here,if i have a PR0 website will it increase when i link my site with other high PR websites ? Say that i link it with 10 PR1 sites or 2 PR3 sites? Which one will have a greater effect? Any quick reference for this? Thanks.
5 PR3 sites would have a greater impact. 10 PR1 sites will probably give you a PR1 (but possibly 2). 5 PR3 sites would almost definitely give you a PR2. However, remember that the PR you see in the Google Toolbar is not the real PR. It is simply a snapshot taken (probably in Dec-Jan). Those PR1 sites might be PR3 now, and the PR3 could be PR0. Primarily look for sites that have a bunch of inbound links and appear to be quality, rather than just looking at the snapshot PR.
Is PR really that important to you ... surely unique relevant traffic that converts should be your primary goal ?
Thanks for the quick replies,i'm just curious and i wanted to do some experience i know that some people are kinda crazy with PR effects, how if i link my site with one PR7 (or higher) website? any effects? I heard that with some 'miracle' Google will update our website PR within 3 days if we linked it with PR7 (or higher) websites....it's true? how many websites must i link my websites to?
If you are the only link on the PR7 site, you would probably get a PR5-6. If there are lots of other links, it would probably be PR4 (assuming you have 0 other links). Internally in Google's systems, yes. You won't see it on your toolbar (or any other method) until the next update though (which is at least a few weeks away).
Thanks anita,you seem know a lot's about these PR things. I have seen many ads selling link to their site,which generally started from PR3. It's worth it to buy link to their sites? (It looks like a link swarm) I found that their link sometimes very cheap ($3 permanent link/PR3 site) or did i missed something? (they were using SEO tricks?)
I think you should be more concerned about having links on your site that are of interest to your visitors, not their PR. Anyway, PR has very little relevance to anything.
I agree with Mr Skyline, you should give priority to your traffic than bothering yourself about PR. You can have PR after google update as long as you have quality backlinks.
Insted of getting huge no of links from pr 0-10 try to get links from ur relevant sites , it will help you to get listed in google SERP so that u got more traffic.
i think 1 quality link works as good as 10 links from irrelevant sites. google belives in quality not in quantity
you must get link from high pr sites for getting high pr and good serp results . if i were you , i use 2 PR3 sites option . ithink this will make better effect
A good option also consider the relevancy of site. Might PR is not that important anymore, still, High pr help for some link building strategies.
Thank you for all the replies,well as i said above...i'm thinking to do some experiment on google PR i know that traffic is more important but i wanted to know what's the real PR effect.....why it's created on the first place etc
People say it doesn't matter, but will only buy links on a directory page with PR4+ It's really hypocrisy. Almost like it's cool and trendy to say PR doesn't matter. Pr is on a Richter scale Ranks increase logarithmically, meaning the energy increases by 10 times for each rank number.
