Hi

I've just used the trial version of SEO spyglass to look at a competitors back links.

I've noticed that some of the links from sites which High PR for the domain are showing that the actual page linked from has 0 PR. This is for sites like Yahoo directory, yahoo asnwers, 192, free webs.

Would it be worth replicating these links?

Thanks for your help

    In short the answer to your question would be no. This is not due to the nature of the links but where the links are coming from. A link from a site with a high pr domain on the inner page of the site still carries some weight, (think profile links). But these links that you are speaking of are pretty much a waist of time. The yahoo directory link is NOT free. And links from yahoo answers are all nofollow links. They can get you a little bit of extra traffic, but not from search engines.

    I would go for a better quality of links. It is possible that you could easily outrank your competitors by doing so.

    Don't follow the competitor... just get high quality back links from other sources.
