      Jdough should add some kind of VIP member status, for people that trade with high-quality sites.
      Exactly,i got some mails with some link exchange request and they want to give linkback from domain.com/shittybacklinkwithnojuiceatall.html .Such requests goes to spam.

        PR is overrated. What matters is the traffic that the sites get.

          Just decline the requests. I decline about 90% of all requests.

              That's the other point.

              They should add some info about the links - alexa rank, number of outgoing links, number of pages on the site, etc.

                Would be nice to be able to set some rules for people asking for links.

                So if I could say something like:

                Requester must have at least (10) choices to link back from.
                Requester must have a minimum of (2) PR3 sites to link back from.
                Requester must have a minimum of (10) PR1 sites to link back from.

                Then I can stop getting requests from people with only 2 free hosted blogs that are both PR0 asking for PR3 links from me.

                But for the most part I just deny their requests and then set those people to block.

                When you make requests you can set a PR limit they can choose from.

                    There should be an option where you could set min PR limit for a trade request.

                        If you think PR is that important you might want to reevaluate your thought process. Google 'Porn' and you'll see sites like http://www.wedigporn.com/ listed on page one which are PR0. Google is no longer updating PR frequently or reliably. There are also a ton of PR2 and 3 sites that haven't been updated in eons selling and trading links at high prices based on their PR when they don't even rank in the top 100 for any meaningful SERP.

                        Yes, two equal sites where one has a higher PR, I'd go with the higher PR site. Same with Alexa. However, the idea that Alexa or PR on their own are significant stats just isn't accurate anymore. Google figured out the only people who found PR useful were link buyers and SEOs trying to game the system, so they stopped providing useful information that way.

                        There are plenty of PR0 sites I'd rather get a link from than many PR1,2 and 3 sites I have seen lately. You'll be much better off finding PR0 sites that update, rank well, have good bounce rates, have original content etc... than you will with a link farm full of popups that make users leave the page faster even though it happens to be PR1

                          Nice post Relentless.

                          There's the also the other side. You have a PR0 site that gets 10,000 uniques a day and has less than a dozen outbound links. Meanwhile someone else has a PR3 site which gets 300 uniques a day, has 5000 outbound links and thinks you should jump at the opportunity.

                          You don't like my posts? Put me on ignore or fuck right off. I'll say what I want.

                            the pr of your site does not matter where you rank in the end. but for sites linking to you it matters a lot. although there are other factors when evaluating the worth of an incoming link, pr is the basis of the google algo and will always be. get a decent pr 7 link and see. it will trump thousands pr0 relevant sites with great bounce rates blah blah ....

                              qft, I'm getting some amazing traffic from PR0 sites that I have traded with on Link Spun. I could really care less about page rank as long as the websites are updated regularly and have good organic traffic.

                                The problem is you have to eyeball of of these requests. Some sort of filter that disallowed trades from .info domains or crap linkfarms would be fantastic.
