Does wikipedia links useful to increase SERP?

Dear Members,

Recently, I taken a project of site building.

• Took the domain
• Posted the unique content
• Backlinking

While doing Backlinks , I used the wikipedia to create them, no other backlinks are there otherthan from wikipedia. And I got 2 wikipedia links (PR5) are live to the 2 different posts in the website. And all of them are on page 1 for that keyword. But unfortunately, there are lesser searches for them.

Now I would like to know that, "does these 2 links are helpful to increase the page rank and SERP of the website to any keyword?"

Wikipedia links where popular but now after the Penguin update I doubt if they will add value to the backlinks.

No doubt you will continue to receive traffic.

I don't think Wiki build a link to increase SERP but adds value to your website..

Yes it helps alot in bringing traffic.

Links from Wikipedia is really too good and it helps a lot in SEO as Wikipedia is an authority site, I would say.

yes it helps to increase ranking and value of our website but i do not know how to create backlinks from wiki.

Yes wikipedia is very helpful for gaining high traffic and more backlinks for your website.

you just have to search for quality wiki sites.

i totally agree with vmousi answer it will definately helpful to your sites.

hello Wikipedia is popular i think it's will really help u from getting more traffic for your site.

Link from wiki certainly increase your traffic, but increasing your SERP ranking is doubtfull.

good information about wikipedia links

Yes Wiki links are important and valuable but Wiki strictly set some filler for this purpose they hardly allow any of link.
