It is common to see top twitter profiles by comparing the number of their followers. Well, pagerank is the way google look at your site with highest number of quality backlinks. Only quality link building matters. I did a simple explore on Twitter profiles and noticed that pagerank is not based on the number of followers. Before, I get the list of highest pagerank twitter profiles, let me share with you pagerank of highest following twitter profiles.
Top 10 Twitter Profiles With Highest Number of followers
1. 3,479,775 Followers – Ashton Kutcher – PR4
2. 3,126,299 Followers – Britney Spear – PR0
3. 2,725,698 Followers – CNN Breaking News – PR2
4. 2,256,966 Followers – Twitter – PR8
5. 2,199,495 Followers – Kim Kardashian – PR0
6. 2,161,299 Followers – The_Real_Shaq – PR7
7. 2,141,683 Followers – John Mayer – PR0
8. 2,149,395 Followers – Oprah – PR6
9. 2,122,700 Followers – Barrack Obama – PR6
10. 1,931,868 Followers – MrsKutcher/Demi Moore – PR7
Top 5 Twitter Profiles With Highest Pagerank
1. 2,256,966 Followers – Twitter – PR8
2. 1,093,834 Followers – Jason Goldman – PR8
3. 28,539 Followers – Tweetmeme – PR8
4. 17,039 Followers – Who News – PR8
5. 11,064 Followers – USA.gov – PR8
Due to search limitation and limited sources available, I’m unable to collect more than 5 profiles with PR8+. Obviously, pagerank is not based on numbers of followers we have. Also, highest profile does not mean they will get quality backlinks either. It’s funny to see Kim Kardashian, Britney Spear and John Mayer’s twitter profiles have pagerank 0. Personally, my twitter profile have pagerank 5 with 32k+ followers. I guess, I can live with that.











Everywhere I go someone is talking about twitter, from CNN to blogs to my friends…twitter twitter twitter
That is awesome…i feel the same way you just wrote and because I’m a working mom…if people spent as much time solving their own issues rather than getting into other’s business the world would be a better place…you are a such a talented writer and you summed it all up in a nice package…thanks
Nice, becoming celebrities sure feels good with millions followers. I bet they can sell anything from Twitter with all those many followers.
Yeah, they will. Look at Kim Kardashian for example.
I didn’t even think that Twitter profile Pagerank would count.
I think it’s amazing that there are people who also managed to get a PR7-8 WOAH! I always thought those numbers are impossible for normal people to achieve…

Hi Kylia,
Page rank on Twitter profile will not get us any page rank juice as it is nofollow tag. All links from our Twitter page is nofollow. But, there are so many Twitter syndication sites that gives dofollow link automatically on all links we posted. So, we still get some benefits from Twitter.
As for PR7-8 is not common for normal people. As you can see, these profiles are huge and well maintained. I managed to get PR6 on my twitter profile for now. Hope to reach PR7 soon.
My twitter profile is PR5 and top 3 search result in google. If it is no value of PR in twitter, I wonder how SERP value benefit with it.
Twitter profile itself contains nofollow links, either in user bio or tweets. It does not deliver any SERP value in Google.
I use Google tool bar. It is a 9 on the home page and since I followed a bunch of people, the other pages went to 0. When I unfollow to within 50 of followers, the other pages go back to 9 after Google drops by.
Like anything else, these things are always in flux. I stand by my statement that lowering your followed to with-in 50 of followers raises your score (For me by ’9′) on all pages. (After Google drops by which it does every three or four days.)
Hi Mark,
Are we talking about pagerank here? Surely, it does not work that way. I suggest some PR checking sites for you to confirm:

Sometimes, Google toolbar shows previous page’s PR. In this case, it could be the main page of Twitter’s PR. The profile page http://twitter.com/username get different PR from main page.

Is one of several with a PR9
Hi Mark,
I just check your Twitter profile, and it is PR0. Maybe, you should check with several PR checker like SearchStatus plugin on firefox, google toolbar, etc.
My twitter profile is 9 with 4k followers! a never know what Gooles thinking, (but I have some idea;))
Do you mind to share your twitter profile URL?
I didn’t know that Twitter profiles could have PR too
All the pages on the web are assigned with some PR. Although, twitter profile PR does not give any value to our website, it is fun to look at it and compare with some celebs profiles.
My twitter profile PR is 4 but my blog PR is 2. So, twitter PR is useless to me, it don’t give any PR juice to my own site.
You’re right. It is frustrating to see our blog PR is lower than twitter profile PR. That’s ok. Wishing you all the best for next PR update, expecting by end of this month.
