Anyone know any forums with high pr

Anyone know any forums with highish pr on the page you post on.

Ignore PR its not as powerful these days and forum back links are even more devalued. What you want is links from many deferent sites.

Ozzu is the most powerful PR site I post on and sometimes a page can even beat my own design site on Google . http://www.htmlforums.com can be hit or miss if your really interested in showing Pr3 back links.

Yeah,

Theme is becoming increasingly important.

Try posting to the free directories such as
Business Directory and Small Business Directory

I hope it does become important but as of yet no evidence proves it has been implemented.

Every link is important, but theme base non reciprocal more, then theme base reciprocal, then others. Yes, forum links are less value, I have seen site with 150 or more forum links and most of them are more than PR 5, BUT site is still PR4.

1. Theme make no deference - yet! There is no evidence it has and it cant be done without a human backboard like a dmoz/Zeal directory). Dont get confused with an expert based system during the florida update ( theory http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~georgem/hilltop/ )

2. Reciprocal makes no deference and why should it?


oh I see erm...IMO non of your sites on the footer make for effective SEO.



This is so false; links from different IP’s are what’s important these days.

A couple of questions.
Are 3 pr 3 links from similar ip number worth more than a pr 3 & a pr2 from different ip range.

I cant say with any degree of accuracy but I would say:

For the PageRank of your page the higher PR is better, but for Ranking on Google the IP range is worth more even with only pr2. We have assumed the link text is the same.

The forum at http://www.lordsrendezvous.com/forums/ has high PR and lets you have multiple signatures

"This is so false; links from different IP’s are what’s important these days." check your info on this according to Google Director of Technology Craig Silverstein links from the same IP are viewed as links from different IPs : http://interviews.slashdot.org/intervie ... tml?tid=95 (see question #5)

Non-recip links are also given more weight....this is considered natural linking because it is a one way link which means that the person linking to your site thought the site was valuable and therefore linked to it without requiring a link back.

Just to add to the above...don't think that you can get 20 sites on the same IP and link them all together and get big PR...the sites have to be unique and have links from other sites...just like an individual site would have...but there is no penalty for connecting them together if the linking is relevant.

I get this stock reply all the time! We are not talking about the same thing! Craig is talking about hosting sites on the same IP, I am talking about the total number of unique IPs pointing to your website. 2 deferent concepts. I also have never claimed penalties only a added boost.


I have seen no evidence to prove receptacle links carry less weight. It is totally feasible that 2 related websites would link to each other naturally. Lets not forget the technical limitations of what you claim… IMO it would be asking a lot to cross reference each link within a domains containing thousands of pages.

It's also feasible that two sites on the same ip would link to each other naturally....the basic statement that Craig makes is that virutally hosted websites, those on the same ip, are viewed the same as sites with a static IP address.

I haven't seen any evidenance that reciprocal link don't carry weight.....I have a few sites that only have recip inks and they rank very well.

Here's a quote directly from the article:
Q: "Why in this day and age does google continue to penalize sites that are virtual hosted? With ip addresses becoming harder to get/justify every day why does google discount the relevance of links that don't come from a unique ip address."

A: "...Google handles virtually hosted domains and their links just the same as domains on unique IP addresses."

He directly addresses LINKS...not hosting.

huh thats what was saying you had said they carried less weight! Just cos they link to each other it dont make them bad. Maybe I was not clear enough so I edited my above post.


The IP thing came into effect the same time as sandbox last December and so that article was written before that (Jul 03). I still don’t think even with the “their links” the statement is that relevent.

If there was no IP recorded then a site with multiple Pages and domains can point hundreds of links at it from one domain. This will rank a site very well but not higher than a site with more Unique Ips and less page rank.

Highly cross link site still bring up the PR since you can see that stickysauce.com scripts.com and their link exchange network can get PR 7 & 8 doing that. It is amazing that they can get minimum of PR 7 by doing that. They just make this website topratedtraffic.com become PR7.
