Buying Links to Increase PageRank
Buying High PageRank Links
Perhaps the quickest route to dramatically increasing traffic and getting your page to the top of the search engine heap is to get one or two “Super Sites” to link directly to your site from their home page.
As a general rule of thumb. A one-way, high Pagerank link will give your site a Pagerank two points below that of the linking page. So a link from a PR9 site should get your site a PR7. However, at the lower end of the scale, I have seen 1 PR-5 turn a new PR-0 site into a PR-4.
Why Buy Links with High PageRank?
A one-way link from a high traffic site that gets millions of visits per month would give your page a large Page Popularity boost. As an added bonus you would also receive hundreds of visitors from such a link.
However, all links are not the same. Some are more important to others, and having just a few links from important web pages can factor more highly in link analysis systems than having many links from unimportant pages.
The good news is that such links are for sale. They are not cheap, but they are available and some savvy SEOs are weaving “Pay for PR Links” into their overall strategy to increase pagerank of their clients sites.
How much do High PageRank Links Cost?
Currently the best rates available for high pagerank home page links are:
- PR5 text link: $5/mo. to $30/mo.
- PR6 text link: $30/mo. to $70/mo.
- PR7 text link: $70/mo. to $120/mo.
- PR8 text link: $120/mo. $250/mo.
To cover the cost of buying high PR links, some enterprising webmasters are in the business of buying a few PR 8 and PR 7 links for PR 1 - PR 2 sites and turning around and selling 10 to 20 home page links based on the resulting PR 6 that their web site ends up receiving.
Buying links as a Short Term Strategy
If you decide to go this route I suggest that you do so for only six to eight months. Because of the nice PR boost your site will get from such a link, you will find that it will be much easier for you to find other high quality reciprocal link partners — for free. After you load up on some great free links, move away from the pay for high pagerank links.
PageRank Buying Guidelines
- PR5 - page: Now that pageranks have dropped across the board these links have solid value and are worth purchasing to give your site a jump start.
- PR6 - page: Very good, harder then ever to come buy and there value has risen sharply.
- PR7 - page: Outstanding, definitely worth buying these links.
- PR8 - page: Excellent. Buy these links if you can get a decent price.
- PR9 - page: Nearly unattainable. Worth lots of money and will make you lots of money.
