Where can I learn it? So that from a list of directoires I can select those directories that export PR
These are some of the points you need to look out for:
Clean, no-nonsense links, without any Javascript redirects or 302 redirects: <a href='www.example.com'>, that sort of thing.
No rel=nofollow tags.
The page that the link is on is not hidden from search engines by robots.txt.
The directory has good ranking in the search engines, and is fully indexed.
The page your link is on should not contain too many other links, or be over 100K in file size. Because PR is shared between all the outgoing links, including those links that point back to the directory itself. It's far more valuable to be on a directory page with 10 other sites listed, than on a page that lists 100 or more.
That's all I can think of for now.
Would you please help me telling how can I check
1 .whether the link is Javascript redirects or 302 redirects
2.Whehter the site uses rel=follow tags.
3. Whehter the page that the link is on is not hidden from search engines by robots.txt.
4. Whether the site is fully indexed.
5. the size of the page the link exists
Thanks in advance

Right-click and view the page source, and look for your link. If it isn't good then you will see rel=nofollow written there, or a javascript onclick event, or whatever. It won't be the kind of clean link I described above.
3. Whehter the page that the link is on is not hidden from search engines by robots.txt.
Robots.txt is always at the domain's root, for instance www.example.com/robots.txt . If there's no file there, it's good. For a detailed explanation, see the robots.txt forum.
4. Whether the site is fully indexed.
On Google, search for site:www.example.com
5. the size of the page the link exists
In IE, right-click and look at the properties.
