Hi liew,
I read somewhere that, if a high page rank connects to a low page rank (mine is none at the moment as we just launched) google crawler will doubt if it is correct or it is something wrong there.
So, do you think for people like me having this promotion would be of something good?

@Avijit Paul: never heard about it before. Don’t need to worry if you have a quality site (even it is new). By the way, PageRank 7 is for BOTW domain, not all the inner pages.

hi
Thats a very fast reply. haha. Well, since I am from a newly founded startup company, I was searching how to improve my page ranks. So found this in http://www.theonlinemarketingguy.com/page-rank-alexa-ranking/
In essence, you’d like to have sites with similar PR vales to your own pointing one-way links to you. Pepper in a few sites with higher PR vales and stir.No sense trying to get a PR 8 website linking to your PR 2 site – they’re so far apart, Google will think something amiss. I mean, a PR 8 site is a TRUE authority/resource. This would be like CNN linking directly to my personal website – might happen, and would drive a boat-load of traffic, to be sure, but the two just aren’t in the same league.It does happen, though, that a higher PR site might link to a page of yours with a lower PR value.
Its almost at the bottom. This is the first time I read that too.

@Avijit Paul: not sure how truth it is since no proof about the statement. Anyway, I agree about “don’t chase PR”. I always advice web authors to focus on contents first and do basic SEO.
