Do footer links pass less link juice?
-
One of my best inbound links for PA and DA happens to be a footer link, curious if it's less valuable or has any value at all.
-
Thanks! I was curious all of my competitors 'best links' (when looking at OSE) seemed to be footers as well.
-
They have become far less valuable (almost none now) for passing PR, but for internal linking its still a little valuable, especially if there arent very many. But for the most part footers are no longer valuable - Google cracked down on that a while ago.
