Which metrics are better for linkback when it comes to PA vs DA?

[emerald]

Which metrics would be more attractive for receiving a linkback from, at least in theory, from the examples below?

Gettting a link from a high PA page on a low DA site or gettting a link from a low PA page but on a high DA site, or something in the middle with both (assuming all other factors similar).

For example which of these page metrics would be more preferable to be listed on?

site 1: PA:19, DA:75

site 2: PA:1, DA:80

site 3: PA:39, DA:55

Thanks!

Hi Emerald,

I would recommend you two very good White-Board-Fridays by Rand Fiskin:

http://www.seomoz.org/blog/which-link-metrics-should-i-use-part-2-of-2-whiteboard-friday

In these two Rand talks about a few tricks and tips how to use the link metrics.

I believe if you watched these videos you will gain the answer to your question.

I hope that helped,

Istvan

Assuming all other things equal (keyword relevancy, anchor text, etc) I'd go for site 3. The DA is good, but I'm really liking the PA/DA combo on that one. Second choice would be site 1.

Thanks I somehow missed those whiteboards and they were right on the mark - really enjoyed both!
