Does Lightbox Gallery Clicks Count Positively Toward Page Rank?
-
When a user clicks through a lightbox gallery, are these counted as a click through for page rank?
I am using WonderPlugin Grid Gallery on multiple pages with multiple galleries.
I do not want these clicks to be wasted.
Please advise.

Counting clicks and click throughs are somewhat outdated for SEO. Google's gotten much better at determining relevnce with other, more sophisticated signals. You should be worried about clicks and CTR for your paid search, but SEO, it's less important.
-
The first question to ask is actually how much (if at all) clickthrough influences pagerank, and if that's the metric to really be concerned about, or if instead it'd be better to look at conversions, time on site, leads, etc.

Alexa Rank and Sem Rush Rank
Just wondering if these rankings even matter? One will go up while the other goes down.. and the Alexa ranking doesn't seem to follow any rhyme or reason in relation to the data I see in Google analytics. Anyone else using these tools? Is one a better indicator of a websites health than the other or should we scrap both from our reports?

Duplicate page content
I have a website which "houses" five different and completely separate departments, so the content is separated by subfolders. e.g. domain.com/department1 domain.com/department2 etc. and each have their own individual top navigation menus. There is an "About Us" section for each department which has about 6 subpages (Work for us, What we do, Awards etc.) but the problem is that the content for each department is exactly the same. The only difference is the navigation menu and the breadcrumbs. This isn't ideal as a change to one page means having to make the change to all 5 and from an SEO perspective it's duplicate content x5 (apart from the Nav). One solution I can see is to have the "About Us" section moved to the root level (domain.com/about-us) and have a generic nav, possibly with the department names on it. The only problem with this is that it disrupts the user journey if they are forced away from the department that they're chosen. Basically i'm looking for suggestions or examples of other sites that have got around this problem, I need inspiration! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
