He says based on experience and the continuous evolution of the search engines they now assign value in a hierarchal sense, hence the ‘step away’ part. If you had a link from a .gov page that had 10 other links on, it would not mean the value of the page is split into 10 but instead they all obtain the value of the page. Link juice is then staggered once these pages link out again. Which is why it is called step away theory, value is assigned on a basis on how many steps away from the powerful source. Hope that makes sense? :0) Thanks for all the comments.
