Would Links from 0 Page Rank Sites Benefit a Site

Can't see why a PR0 link from a related site would not be beneficial...
Just a FYI, there is a forum for SEO questions here: Adsense / PPC / SEO Discussion Forum

Thanks

Any link from a clean site is useful and helps in the rankings but they must be clean from blackhat,spam, link farms etc. also watch the themes often they have footer-links to banned sites. in this case it is doing more harm than good

PR0 alone does not mean a bad thing.

What IS bad about PR0 site is that you don't know why it has PR0.

If it has PR0 because it's new OR it has empty link profile .... cool! Link from this site won't harm you (it will not do you much good but it will not harm you).

If it is PR0 because Google doesn't like and it links to you ... you might get into trouble. (if you get more of such links)

My point is that first thing Google does after they find out that site is a link-farm or something other they don't like they lower it's PageRank.

That's why you should do your best to link only from PR1+ sites. Avoid PR0s and N/As.

Each backlink is a PLUS! You can't only have PR7,8 backlinks... It is normal to have 50-60% PR0 backlinks, about 20% PR1-PR3 and 10-20% PR4+...

Where did you get percentage like that from?

You know there is a difference between PR0 page and PR0 site.

If you'd have 60% of PR0 PAGE links coming from all kinds of sites with PR3, PR4 PR28 you would be most likely Ok.

However, if you'd have 60% of links from PR0 DOMAINS (aka sites) you would most likely get penalty for links coming from untrusted sources.

Nothing wrong with a link from that page if you ask me. The point is, there are many other factors to consider other than PR when it comes to where you get your links from. Don't get too focused on any of them. It leads to insanity.
Looking for niche related links would be the best advice.

Thanks

It also depends how relevant the page/site is.

There's a HUGE difference between a PR0 link that's ranking in the top 250 for your target keyword and a PR0 in an unrelated niche.

That would mean every new webpage or site shouldn't link to you?

Sounds very logical.

Cyberjoe - Any site will have backlinks from PR 0 sites. Just imagine if you had only PR 5+ backlinks... Would that look natural in the eyes of search engines?

I completely agree with cyberjoe, you should try to get variety types of links. Along with creating high PR back links you should get links from PR0, N/A, PR1 and no-follow so that sear engine can't catch the pattern and it looks normal

There's no such thing as a PR0 site, PR is for pages.

I wasn't trolling, a lot of people seriously believe PR is sitewide.

Look at all the fiverr gigs, or all the forum threads (domain list) here on WF that claim high PR links because the Index page has a high PR, where in reality they'll end up with a PRn/a - PR0 link buried deep in the site.

I'm afraid they really can't see the difference. Especially dudes on Fiverr.

In moderation links from PR0 pages are just fine and dandy. But, if you have a low authority domain and race out and build 100,000 profile or blog comment links overnight using link automation software, then you do run the risk of getting slapped.

I have a theory that Google uses the Project Honeypot spam database as an input to it's ranking and penalty algorithm. Just a theory. If you want to see a list of the top spam domains, have a look here: https://www.projecthoneypot.org/comm..._urls.php?dt=7

IMO any links even from PR0 page will benefit your site. You only have to make sure you link with the right site.

I'm thinking to do some link exchanges with PR0 or PR1 sites which have the related contents as my site. And my link will be in their link page and theirs will be in my link page.

Positioning on Google results pages depends on relevance and authority. Relevance depends on the keywords and synonyms on the page and underlying coding. It also depends on the anchor (linking text) - so even a PR0 link might add to the relevance.
We only see a PR in integers but Google uses many decimal places. So PR0 might be PR0.99999. Furthermore, Google updates the PR values for us no more frequently than every 3 months. Next update may reveal that the PR0 link has become PR2. The voting power of a link to your website is the PR of the linking page divided by the number of out-going links on that page.
It is generally assumed that a link from a related webpage carries more weight than one from an unrelated page - but evidence for this is difficult to find.
Hope this helps

Regards

David
