    In short , not really. Of course if you get into a category high enough that has PR then it will give you some PR juice , you shouldnt really worry about PR however since it gives you very little benefit in serps.

    If you built good traffic , PR will come naturally over time. Advertising should never be based on PR , if you sell text links its a fast way to get penalised from google , if that happens then all your hard work is down the drain. Build links in increase your natural search and then sell proper advertising banners. That will be consistent as long as your traffic remains high

    Dmoz helps PR. I notice that my websites has higher PR after they're approved by Dmoz.

    In my own experiences, DMOZ is still helpful for PR purpose but it is not essential for higher PR. You could get a higher PR by using fresh and original contents on site plus building backlinks from high PR and niche relative sources. :)

    Thanks,

    Backlinks from good website are always valuable. Dmoz is one of the best. But it is very tough to get listed in.

    Dmoz can help but don't concentrate with that site alone, try to do a lot of backlinks from different sites that relevant to your site, join different social networking and bookmarking sites, directories and listing site, forum and blogs site, article and press release submission site and always remember that upon doing this always follow white hat technique and avoid black hat techniques. On that way it will help you increase your PR if thats what you after to.

    If you submit your site to the DMOZ directory, you will get a valuable link from the directory itself.

    Since DMOZ is a DoFollow Directory Site ofcourse it will improve the PR of a website as long as relevant to category.

    Yes, since DMOZ is a DoFollow Directory site, it can pass the pr link juice to DoFollow link.

    That's right! I think PR is about traffic, popularity, and backlink.
    Thanks for good point!

    Listing in DMoz is very effective because of Google gives more important compare than other quality link .
