I got a link from website having page rank 5 but out of it page under which my website is located has no rank.Then which rank is considered valid by Google?Please somebody put light on this topic.

This is a massive topic but I will try and be as concise as possible.

First of all, you are referring to toolbar PageRank (the PageRank you see in your toolbar). This is only updated, typically, every 3-4 months, so it’s probably the case that the PageRank value for the site beneath you hasn’t updated yet. This said, Google’s own internal PageRank updates on a constant basis, so while it’s not reflected in the toolbar, it has still likely been assigned.

You should also remember that each page is assigned a certain amount of passable PageRank i.e. not all the PageRank value from a page will be passed on and what’s more, the value is typically divided between the majority of external links on a page.

Both of these links are likely to have been "considered valid" by Google. However, remember it’s not solely about PageRank, it’s also about trust, relevance and site-wide/domain authority.

Toolbar PageRank is a bit of a flawed concept for a lot of the reasons I have stated above. What’s more, Google’s own internal rank is decided to multiple decimal points.

So, for example, the PageRank in the toolbar for a page may be PR 5, however Google’s own internal PageRank may be something like 5.6735264738 — this means there can be the world of difference between two PR 5 pages.

    Hi,
    PR of a particular page is considered by Google in which web link is given.
