Are PR1 Domains Useless?

I want to register some PR1 expired domain names to park.

What is the level of traffic that should be expected. Can it be up to 10 or even 20 a day?

Or should I just save my money?

    The page rank is NOT related to level traffic.

    If you want to build traffic, don't buy any PR1+ expired domain names. Otherwise, you need to search expired domain names which have traffic.

    The PR of the domain =/= the level of traffic.

    It all depends on how popular the website is before it expired. A good way to check this is by verifying the alexa ranking of the domain.

    If they are related and NOT spammed to death with many other backlinks! No matter they are PR1 or PR8, they are still useful for SEO!

    PR means nothing more than the value of the PR from other websites that link towards you.
    I had a website with a PR5 from just one link coming in from a PR7. Traffic 2 a day.

    If you have a PR1, but you have traffic, then for me that PR1 has more value than a PR5 with no traffic.

    1. Pr has nothing to do with traffic.
    2. Unless your parked page has direct traffic, forget it.

    If you want to flip it then get it or else it has no meaning.

    I own some pr4 to pr6 which are much worse then a few pr0 ones i own.

    PageRank is just a factor, among dozens of elements considered by Google to give websites ranks and having a higher or lower PR does not mean traffic stats of websites can be estimated. You can find many PR 3 websites having much better ranks than their PR 5 competitors on Google. Traffic is the real value of the websites, so parking a high PR domain, without having any bright perspectives of maintaining that would be like wasting time and money because nothing will change even after a long time of waiting.

    PR is actually nothing if it does not have any traffic. I have seen many websites that are still PR 0 or 1, but have lots of traffic and some are PR 4-5-6, but no visitors.

    You cannot consider them as useless i would say you will get less traffic but you can work hard on it and you can do good seo and page rank will be good
