    new site, PR of 0

    my backlinks include:

    PR 8
    PR 7
    PR 7
    PR 5
    PR 5

    will this be enough to boost my site from the 0 ranking?

    what effect (if any) will this have on search results?

    thanks

    The .edu links will definately increase your PR. It will help more if they are relevent to your site.

    No idea. I wouldn't depend on those links alone, though - build more.

    It depends alot on ho many other links are on those pages - the influence of a page on a linked page is directly related to how many other links are on it, among other things

    the more links (on the page linking to me) the better?

    or the other way around?

    you only want 1 or maximum 2 links on a site pointing to you.

    I meant get links on as many other pages as possible as well. ie, don't put all your eggs in one basket!

    Well, depending on the number of other outgoing links on the page, anywhere from no effect, to instant PR 6

    No you want your links on high PR sites with the least possible amount of external links beside yours.

    But seeing that you already got a PR8 and several other high PR links you should at least get PR6 with the next update I'd imagine.

    if 5 .gov links to my site has done me no good so far, then i dont think it will help any more then most other links would.

    maybe google knows these links are kinda authority and waiting a couple of months before they apply it to my site (incase the site was hacked and i added my link or woteva) but so far ive had no major effect.

    Where'd you hear this one? As long as the content is relevant, who cares how many links come from one source. Many are best, but over none, I'd take a lot from a single site.

    especially if the links pointed to different parts of the site (health section, entertainment section etc)
