PR Question.

I've always wondered this, and thought I'd ask here:
I have 3 blogs , 2 of which are pr 3 right now.
Every new blog post I create is, effectively making a new page on my blog, a page that has 0 pr. My question is, because the domains have the pr value and not individual blog posts, why is their so much value in selling blog posts on PRed domains? Would it not be more beneficial from a seo perspective to put links to your money sites on the actual root domain index page that has the page rank? THX.

    Depending how the blog is setup and how often it is posted to, that article is going to be on the root domain of the site. If it gets posted to a lot, it will roll off fairly quickly.

    If the site is structured fairly well with tightly organized categories and not posted to a hundred times a day, the individual posts will often gain PR.

    So basically as long as the posts containing links to money sites remain on the front page, they will receive PR from the root domain?

    Stop right there. Domains don't have PR, only pages do. Now it just happens to be that it is generally the homepage of a site that has PR, but that still doesn't change the fact that the PR relates to a specific page.

    why is there so much value in selling blog posts on PRed domains? Would it not be more beneficial from a seo perspective to put links to your money sites on the actual root domain index page that has the page rank? THX.
    A lot of people that buy those links, don't really understand much about PR. You may well have a link from the homepage with PR for a short while until it gets bumped off.

    However, don't forget that some PR flows through to the inner pages. As to how much, it depends on the number of links and PR of the originating page.
