The last few days I have looked on the internet to see how many links do you need to obtain a PR.

Below I will put all the charts that I’ve found with the explanation:

First :

There are many webmasters that keep a close eye on Pagerank to measure the effectiveness of incoming links or backlinks to their website or blog. The biggest question is how many backlinks you need to move your Pagerank up. It’s not only the amount of backlinks, but the quality of those backlinks.

Each Pagerank level is worth 5.14 times the previous level. In simple terms, a PR3 link is worth 5.14 PR2 links, a PR7 link is worth 5.14 PR6 links, and so on. It seems like a long climb to the top and for good reason, you have to work hard at it to achieve results.

If you are trying to build backlinks, it’s best to target pages that have a high Pagerank. Instead of getting 10 potential PR4 links, versus two PR6 link, it’s smarter and more efficient to spend time in getting backlinks from a PR6 website as it is worth 5 x 5 = 25 PR4 links. It’s not easy getting backlinks from websites that have a PR 6 and higher. You really have to be committed when launching a link campaign in order to improve your overall Pagerank.

Chart and actual calculation provided by Ted Ives – Vice President of Product Management at The Search Agency.

It sure is a huge climb between PR5 and a PR6, but it’s one that can be accomplished with time. There’s one other thing you should know, If a website linking into your website falls in Pagerank, so does the link value.

Here’s a list of dofollow blogs with a PR 5 or higher:

Happy link building!

Second:

The following chart is based on the Google pagerank calculation for how Google calculates the PageRank (PR) of an individual page and what is required for certain pageranks. You can use this table as a guide and an estimation of how many links you need to get to achieve a certain pagerank score.

How To Interpret This Information

This chart gives you an estimation of what your page rank would be, had all the pages linked to you been PR 1 to 10.Of course as is generally the case there will be manymore lower ranked websites linking to you than higher ranked websites.My suggestion is to use a tool to find the average PR of the websites linking to you.

What Do The PageRank Ranges Represent?

The “Start Range”,”End Range”, and “Median Value” show how many votes a website with that particular PageRank would be expected to have to justify a certain Pagerank score.Since a single website might only just qualify to be a Pagerank 5, it might have only 5,033 votes castfor it while a strong Pagerank 5 website would be expected to have up to 27,213 votes.

To find out the amount of links you need to gain to get a certain pagerank simply look across the top and then down. For example we want find out how many links we need to get a pagerank 7. In the collumn Links for PR7, I need 406,621 page rank 1 links to achieve my pagerank 7. For a pagerank of 8, I need 2.2million pagerank 1 links.

Please remember that the amounts of links are estimates and in no way can be 100% accurate because there are many other factors involved in how much link juice a website getsfrom an individual link to it. It is also important to note that the pagerank of a website is only a small piece of how and why websites rank well in the search results. Pagerank is only a guide as to the importance of this website when compared to all others on the Internet and is one small piece in the ranking of that page within the search engine results pages.

(These are only estimates. This is for education and learning)

Third:

Although nobody knows the exact Google PageRank values the table below gives a fairly good representation of how many external links, of certain PageRank values, are required to achieve a certain Google PageRank.

Here are some sites were you can calculate your PR:
