Is there value in consistently getting a link from a high DA sites?
For example, consistently posting on a blog monthly rather then only doing it once and getting a link/being done with it.
Could you list the pros of consistently getting links on high DA sites?

i would say its good to get a few links, maybe make it every 3 to 6 months as links can get deindexed or become no-follow over time or even become inactive.
one thing to note that if you do see yourself getting hundreds of links from the same site, this could cause you site wide link issues, depending on where the link is placed

Hi there
There is value, definitely. Google looks at links as a vote and also "who you associate with" aspect. If you hang out with a good group of people, people are more like to trust and view you as a good person. If you hang out with bad people or shady people, people tend to view you the same way. Think of it that way.
I will add this in here - the best way to link build is to ask the following questions:
- Does this link help my website?
- Is this link relevant to my website?
- Would I trust this site (that's linking to me) if I landed on it?
- Is the website or content in which I am being linked from topically relevant to my website?
- If you check metrics - does anything about the metrics (domain authority, page authority,Majestic, SEMRush traffic/ranking data, etc) make me feel uneasy?
Getting links from high domain authority sites that are not relevant to your industry or market aren't as valuable, because they're not related. Use common sense. You'll know a good link when you see one, high domain authority or not. Check out this resource. Hope this helps!

SEO value of home page links
I was looking at the website peak7.org and there are links on the homepage that rotate at the bottom. Do such links have SEO value even though they are not static text links? Are they still counted as links by Google if they are in that rotating carousel?

Value of Link Redirect from Google News
Some sites are linking to us with the URL from Google News instead of using a direct link. For example: "http://news.google.com/news/url?sa=t&fd=R&usg=ghjgjhggjhgkjghjg&url=http://www.oursite.com/awesome-news-010123/" Does this pass the same value as a normal link? I asked the publisher to replace the link with a normal link but they pushed back saying that the news URL is better.

Links from Related Sites with Low PR or semi-related sites with High PR?
Is it better to get a link from a site with lower PR but related content or higher PR but semi-related or unrelated content? For example, if I sell shoes, would a link from a PR1 or PR2 shoe or apparel site be better or a link from PR4 website that sells books be better? I'm not talking about sites with completely unrelated content, but how relevant is PR in obtaining relevant links if I am trying to raise the PR and rankings of my own site?

Low PA high DA
I've been reviewing the PA and DA of news releases on PRWeb.com. While PRWeb has a very high DA=96, the vast majority of news releases have a PA=1, even those that are several months or several years old. 1. What is the affect of a follow back link with PA=1 and DA=96? 2. Although the vast majority of news releases have a PA=1, there are a few with a PA=40 plus. Further analysis revealed that these pages had one or two back links from other root domains. So, it appears that it is possible to boost the PA of your news release by linking to it from another root domain. Would it be advisable to link to your own news release from other root domains so as to boost the PA, and thus have back links to your site with a good PA and excellent DA? Best,
