Blog site comments

If I leave 5 comments on high PR blog of my niche, does google count that as 5 back links to my site from a good quality site? Or does google count them as 1 since they’re all from the same site?

Those should be 5 different links, however worth less then 5 links from 5 different sites

Better to comment on different sites but a few points of advice:-

  • Most blogs are no-follow so your link won’t really have any SEO benefit
  • If you do find a do-follow blog then at least take the time to actually read the blog and make a worthwhile comment that contributes to the conversation… Blog moderators get sick of reading ‘nice post you are so informed on your subject’ or something similar (speaking as a moderator of several blogs myself). Don’t be surprised if your comment doesn’t appear or gets deleted if you haven’t made a worthwhile comment.
  • Better still offer to write blog posts for other blogs related to your subject matter in exchange for an embedded link or two.

Or comment on 5 different posts from that blogger. Not 5 commments on the same post. However, if you are just engaged in the conversation, no problem. If it is for SEO benefit, then switch it up.

Several points:

  1. the page that you leave your comments on won’t have the PR of the “site” the “site” PR is actually the PageRank of the home/index page of that site. The actual comment page will be most likely PR0 or less
  2. Google only counts the 1st link to any URL on a page it finds, so if you have two links to http://www.example.com on a page, one with the anchor text “example 1” and the second with “example 2” then only the “example 1” link will be passed PR to that link and the anchor text used as the link value, the second link will be effectively ignored.
  3. If you comment on three different pages/posts, then Google will treat that as 3 separate back-links.

I think it would be better if you do leave comments on different blogs that is related to your site. Specially do follow blogs is much better.

Alternate the anchor text. I believe commenting on relevant sites does get credit.
