Links from low PA pages on high DA sites... What effect do they have?

[StalkerB]

Having links from diverse and quality domains helps a lot in terms of link building. The fact the pages that you have links on have low authority isn't bad and pretty natural looking.

That said they're not going to be a magic bullet in terms of getting you ranking but should definitely count as another domain pointing in. I would definitely recommend getting links like these into your business sites as part of your link portfolio.

As for why they don't show in OSE, could just be because OSE hasn't crawled it.

Thanks for the tips, Dan.  They are much appreciated.  As far the URL's are concerned, our page shouldn't be pw protected or blocking robots

One thing we did about a week and a half ago was redirect our non-www pages to www.....

Thanks for your help, Barry.  The link-building campaign is just beginning for our site and I see lots of work up ahead!

New profile pages on any site (high DA or low DA) will also have a PA of 1 to start off with.

I believe that is not something you have to worry about as long as it's from a high authority trusted site

One thing you might want to look into is whether the link is a do-follow link or a no-follow link as Google don't follow no-follow link, if you are trying to rank in other search engines (such as yahoo), then it won't be too much of a concern

Thanks, Clement. Driving traffic to the profile pages is imperative.

I hope the link-building campaign is going well! Q&A is more active than ever; feel free to come and start a new thread with any questions you have, you'll have lots of people to lend you a hand as you continue working on your site.

Your linked in link is no follow. If it was do follow, I would try to get links to that page to raise the PA, but other factors matter. I have seen many pages with lower combo PA and DA rank higher, not sure exactly why though.

Why do all the news releases on PRweb.com have a PA=1?  It makes sense that the news releases start at PA=1, but news releases from 2009 are still at PA=1.  Is it because the vast majority of news releases have one internal back link?  What is the affect of a follow link from a page with PA=1 and DA=96?  Also, is it possible to increase the PA of your own press release on PRweb.com by adding your own external back links to the press release, thus having a decent PA and a very high DA?

Best,
Christopher

Christopher, you might want to ask this as its own question, as this is an old thread and new responses won't bounce a thread to the top. I only know of this question since I happened to be subscribed to the thread.

I'm not an expert in PA and DA, but my guess would be that a new release from 2009 doesn't get a whole lot of links and traffic in many cases.

A common response to the question of "should I build links to one of my inlinks to increase the authority of my inlinks" is that you should spend that time getting links to your own page, not doing someone else's linkbuilding work for them.

Thanks, I'll start a new thread.
