    SEO People - I got a ???

    How do webpages with 0 backlinks get PR 5? What's up with that?

    I'm not in the SEO game, but from my basic understanding I would think that to get PR5, a page would need at least one other website linking to it.

    Enlighten me with truth and knowledge oh great and powerful SEO gurus!
    I post on GFY so that when people ask me what I do,
    I can tell them that I work with the mentally retarded.

              So all that matters is that people are linking to the root page of the website? Not the individual pages within the site?

                    No worries, just teasing. Thought it was too ironic to pass up.
                    As for your question where the links point to does matter, but if the main link-receiving page (assuming the home page) has direct links to others on your site, it'll pass some of the PR on ...

                    For example, your home page (index.html) has a bunch of PR3-5 pages linking to it, it will get a PR boost from them - and let's say it now has a PR3. If you have 3 links to internal pages from index.html (say, 1.html, 2.html, 3.html) they will each get some of that PR3. But with the dampening down they may be a PR2 for example.

                    If you want 1.html, etc. to have a higher ranking then the PR3-5 sites would have to link directly to them, or have more/better links to the home page so it passes more PR on to them.

                    Hope this makes sense...

                      That was a perfect description of how it works Kevsh. When learning the secrets to SEO, and I still am of course, I would have killed to have found this description.

                      Cheers.
