Links from internal pages from other website.
-
A website link to our site from internal pages of that site where page rank is 0 but page rank of home page of that website is 5 ,it will helpful or I should get links from a page where page rank is available there?
-
Is that page ranking or is that page indexed? Because sometimes can happen you have a link in a page that Google has not indexed (that happens in case of directories, sometimes).
Then, with the Mozbar, check the metrics of that page and of its domain. mozRank value corresponds almost to the real PR of the page and DomainRank and DomainTrust metrics can tell you if it is an authoritative site.
If the metrics are good at least on a domain level, then be happy, because you have obtained naturally a link from a new unique domain name which has good/excellent domain metrics that helps yours domain metrics as well (especially the domainTrust one).
This is the case of being linked in an internal article of the New York Times, for instance.

I would also look at what traffic the other site gets - I like to get links which have a real chance of referring relevant traffic. The websites I work on exist to sell products, so I want links that can attract customers directly as well as indirectly through helping our rankings.
-
Get both.
PR is not everything, what is more important is page and linktext relevancy

Pursuing the Google toolbar PR is a waste of time. PR is a measure of how popular a page is, not how well it will rank. What good will it do if you have a PR5 page that ranks poorly for keywords?
The question you need to be asking yourself is "What keywords do I want this page to rank well for?"

Other websites copy content and giving a link back
Hi, I've just noticed a few back links in Google Search Console, I was excited. But when I saw the backlinks, 2 other websites that had completely copied my content and then gave a backlink to my website. Is this bad for SEO and would google penalise my website for this?

One page hit with 10K no follow spam links, should we disavow?
Hi everyone, I'd like your opinions on the best way to handle this situation: One particular site page just got hit with 10,000 no follow spammy backlinks over 10 days time. I've read that it's pointless to use the disavow tool on no follow links (since it basically does the same thing) but we want Google to be aware that this WAS NOT US and we don't want to be penalized for these spammy links. Couple of questions: 1. Do we send backlink removal requests to each domain webmaster? 2. Should we skip removal requests and move right to disavow? 3. Should we take other action? As a site we have NEVER used any black hat SEO tactics over a 15 year history and have many HQ do follow and no follow links to the site and this particular page. Thanks for any suggestions in advance!!

Should I ask sites that link to me to update links that redirect?
I have found some links to my site that go through a single 301 redirect to get to my site. Should I contact these websites to ask them to update the link, or is that not worth the time?

Link profile problem? User-generated reviews website suffering after Penguin
Hi all, We run a user-generated reviews website and we link to the websites of businesses with reviews. Many of them also link back to their reviews page (and in fact, we give them a widget to encourage this). I have a couple of questions about this; Most of these links are to legitimate, but fairly small and unknown businesses - which means a lot of our inbound (and outbound) links are low quality. Could this be hurting us? Given that the links are 2-way, could this be viewed as spam? Some businesses (including a couple with high traffic) have included our widget in their website footer - so there are thousands of (low quality) links from a single domain. Problem? The reason I'm asking is that our traffic suffered in the Panda update, and is again suffering with Penguin - despite the fact that we have a lot of unique content in the form of user-reviews. We've never engaged in any black-hat techniques. Any ideas or advice would be much appreciated. SEO novice here!
