uhm I never said that, I said that people who have links on my blogs have said that their PR went higher. As for incoming, and outgoing links, incoming links will help you, and outgoing links will help others. Basically if you are planning to have incoming links with no outgoing links, you won't have as high of a PR than you would if you have outgoing links also. In my case, with me having all the outgoing links it hurt my PR but did not diminish it. Also I noticed that traffic is actually higher since I've added the links. So basically you have to ask yourself if you are in it for the traffic, or the PR rankings.
As for a balance of both incoming, and outgoing links, it is hard to define. The key is finding links that match your site's or blog's content. IF you are looking for traffic, and not PR then having inlinks , and no backlinks is fine. IF you are looking for PR, the best thing to do is to pick sites to trade with that already have a PR. If your site does not have any PR at first then what you can do is ABC link trading. Pick one of your blogs that DOES have PR, and offer a link on that blog, while the other person puts the site that has 0 PR on their already PR-ed site.
It's basically trial, and error. I have seen sites that I have no backlink to, and them have an inlink to one of my blogs, show up on Google before my original blog does. The trick is not to have too many of either the incoming, and outgoing links to one site, or blog.
