Links: Quality or Quantity?
I always say quality, but... for example...
your SEO blog with 25 quality backlinks with pr0-7 from related blogs and SEO sites
VS.
SEO company blog with over 30 000 backlinks with pr0-7 from directories, music sites, online stores, sport sites, php development, videogames...
Who will win this battle?

Yep, but how to collect 25 links from Matt Cuttis blog, v7n blog, SEOMoz, SlashDot, Jim WesterGreen, SEOBook and others..... I don't think that it is possible.

Quality hands down in my opinion. I ran link campaigns for two similar blogs one blog I obtained a handful of high ranking links and the other I went for sheer volume. These both started out at PR 0 with the update the one with few links but better quality was a PR 4 the other a 3.

I think quality links win. But links is not the only elements that is consider by search engine.

Quality is better than that quantity. FOR EXAMPLE: if you have only 4 quality links that give you a PR of 3 and you have also 12 links that give you PR 3 also which would of the two you prefer to choose? I go for the quality with high impact in terms of relevancy....

IMO you need both quantity AND quality...actually let me clarify...you need a large quantity OF quality links to dominate.

It's possible...It would just require time and hard work. Like John said, create an authority site....build trust. Just remember...they all started out small like anyone else.

this question is the weight of the links that matter.
in another word.. the pagerank of the incoming link's website.
i personally think, regardless what site, it not much affection.
because directory in general, helps ranked my site well.

The quality of links always comes first than the quantity as these are the sites which give weightage to your site in improving its own PR just because of quality link backs.

I disagree with everyone. They are both variables that have value though generally I think naturally obtained quantity always wins :p but when your doing SEO only go for quality.
Quality i am sure we all agree is measured with relevance over PR however PR is still a good indicator rather than a gamble on PR0.

I won't as such argue beyond saying that I think your incoming links are most defensible if you target both quality and quantity |

I only have one link from a good domain and I already have PR5. The quality links win...in my case.
