Disadvantages or having link pages on root?

Is there any?

[silverbytes]

I moved my link directory pages into a folder months ago leaving directory index on root at same level than content pages and link pages itself into a folder. I expected they get some pr but that never happened. Site is crawled regularly but links pages never get any pr.

So I'm thinking in moving my link pages out that folder and put it at root level as content pages. I'm pretty sure they will get some PR then. But I wonder about disadvantages of doing that.

First I see: disorder. I don't like to have all together.

Any others?
Should I do it?

Pages should get pagerank regardless of whether they are in a subdirectory/folder.

Google only updates pagerank (as seen on toolbar) once every 3 or 4 months. Did you make the changes more than that long ago? If you move the pages again, it might zero the counter for you and you'd be looking at another several months.

PR is passed based on whether a page is linked to. As was stated before, it shouldn't matter where you have your pages at.

Ok so waiting there is the only option right... I don't know but I think it was 6 months this far and pages keep PR0, the rest of the site is ok..

There has not been a Google toolbar PR update since January 1st. Be patient and you will see green.

PageRank update took place today. Hope it helped you.
