My question is if I create more then one backlink from a same site using same anchor text will it be useless? If it is then do u think google will not give value more then one time if 5000 wordpress forum users recommend a good wordpress theme marketing site?

      It's not useless, but it's not nearly as effective as links from a diverse number of sources.

      It does not count as just one backlink if the backlinks are counted.

      Google chooses what it wants to count.

      Internal linking gives multiple backlinks.

      Yes, you should go after many, many types of backlinks, but a backlink
      is a backlink, same site or not.

      I'm not sure why people believe that multiple backlinks on the same site
      count as only one. Maybe the wizard hat is on too tight.

    If you get more than 1 "vote" from an IP, it's better than just one vote, but of course diversify.

    You may increase the number of links to your site but in Google webmaster you can see the number of links coming to your sites from unique domains. This is the number you want to increase and this can only be done if you link from a number of different websites.

    Getting multiple backlinks from the same site is *not* the same as getting just one backlink. However, the backlinks after your first one will not be as valuable.

    If you want to maximize value of backlinks gotten from the same site, then vary where they're going.

    For instance, I use Article Marketing Robot to publish articles linking back to my and my customers' niche sites. The first article I'll post will link back to the TLD (top level domain - the main url) of the site. Now, if I assume that subsequent AMR runs will, for the most part, publish to the same directories, instead of just posting links back to the TLD again, I'll link to an internal page. In my next AMR run, I'll link to a different internal page.

    And so on.
