Weight to Backlink ratio?

Has anyone figured out a weight to backlink ratio?

For example, 10K in weight will produce x number of backlinks.

 

I was curious about the same thing

 

my guesstimate: weight / backlinks = 10 - 50 . but you need 1,000 minimum weight units to get any backlinks at all.

 

Is this true?

 

No this is not true at all.

 

I have weight below 1K and have checked it through MSN and they show links from the Coop.

But I'm a little confused on the 10-50 number. Does that mean a person with 1K in weight would have 5K in backlinks?

 

no, you will likely have 20 - 100 (1000/50 - 1000/10) backlinks for 1k weight units. not meant to be any accuracy, pure guestimation.

 

Are the estimated ratios of 10 to 50 for Google backlinks, or MSN? Because there's a ratio of MSN showing 10 to 50 times as many backlinks as Google does, too...

 

definitely MSN.

(I'm actually seeing a ratio of 1:5 right now, though this is much higher than normal...26K weight and about 5K backlinks in MSN.

 

I have about 2500 in weight and see 2k in backlins in MSN.....close to a 1 to 1 ratio

 

OK.

So estimates are somewhere between 2% and 100% for weight to link ratio (with at least one vote for 25%).


Does anyone have advice on ramping up their weight so as not to create a disturbance?

EG. Putting a little more weight each week toward a site so as to not have the site look suspicious if it goes from 50 to 10,000 links for a particular keyword overnight?

Thanks.

 

Your forgetting something. It also depends on if google happens to be crawling that page at the exact time your ad is on it. People have been talking about backlinks recently dropping, but what they forget is that google has not been crawling with such a vengence lately. Having the link on the page only counts as a backlink if google knows its there.

 

OK Thanks.

But what about the ramping up...any experience?

 

This is an interesting discussion.

Like others I would like to discover how many Google backlinks 1k of weight produces on average.

Taking some of the numbers above, it may be that each 1k weight produces an average of around 50 MSN links.

Now I reckon as an average over sites - there is high variation between individual sites - that there are around 20 backlinks that MSN will show for every backlink that Google will show.

What this means is that each 1k weight will produce 2 to 3 Google backlinks.

If this is true, it seems that on the ad network, you have to give a heck of a lot of links in proportion to those received.

I hasten to add that the above is completely theoretical and I don't have experience of the network to judge the figures by – so please don’t get annoyed with me if my estimates are nonsense.

I'm really interested to hear comments about the above numbers from people who already have experience with the network.

 

Based on what Ive seen thats a huge underestimate.

 

I actually have received around 600 MSN links with 1K weight.

That's true.. I have only gotten a small handful of Google links from the network lately, and I think that's due in part to the fact that Google isn't spidering as frequently as MSN, so even though our links are being displayed, they aren't always being caught by G.

What is wierd is that I have a static link on a PR5 site, that even shows up in Google's cache, but if I do a backlink search on my URL, it's nowhere to be found. If they can't even find this "legit" link, what hope do I have for them to find the co-op ones?

 

For every 1 k of weight, I get approximately 900 backlinks in MSN......

 

Ill get back to you in a few weeks

n 2 days with 900 weight i got 8 BL's
