The key factor in achieving top positions in search engines is link popularity. The more sites are pointing to your website, the better. Any link you obtain has some impact on your search engine rankings.

Thanks, Julia, for taking the time in publishing this great post. You’ve explained linking very well and I shall now check our MyWayLinks! I have a few blogs and have many posts that have yet to gain PR, but I have seen one of them recently gain PR1 after about 10 months.

Curricula says: “I like to know if its still worthwhile to post to a blog page with no PR.”

Julia: “Yes, if you see that the post is relevant and worth to leave a comment, why not do this. With time the blog can obtain a higher PR so your link in the comment (if it is approved) will be more valuable.”

While it is true, as Julia says, that it can be worthwhile leaving a post on a page with no PR ranking, if you are attempting to build links to a specific page in order to advance it in the SERPs, it is probably better to find high PR ranking sites to post to. This will get your page ranked higher in the SERPs quicker than posting to low-ranking PR websites.

Hello,

Yes, if you see that the post is relevant and worth to leave a comment, why not do this. With time the blog can obtain a higher PR so your link in the comment (if it is approved) will be more valuable.

I like to know if its still worthwhile to post to a blog page with no PR. Does it make sense to do so?

Julia, You quote the relative value of links on different parts of the page. I can buy into the difference between within post and navigation menu links – the nav menu links are repeated on every page. How do you know the difference in value between navigation menu links and footer links – has this been measured through a test?
