Increasing PR?

lauraddirectnet · 01-10-2007, 01:56 PM

What are some great ways to increase the PR of my website? I have read about blogging and search engines and such,but is there anything more that can be done.

I know there is no quick fix, but how long can it take to go up for example from a 3 to a 5?

All comments are appreciated!

Manage to get a link back from Pr 7

lauraddirectnet · 01-10-2007, 02:13 PM

Haha!
Would you have to have a number of higher ranking links or will having one affect my ranking?

Have a look!! if you get a backlink from PR 7 ,it will influence a lot

I posted this question in a few other forums. Look into and see what PR is all about.

Press release, directory submission, submitting to social bookmarking sites and article submission in ezine article site are the other means to improve your PR.

For a noob this thread would look like :

Increasing PR? Aka : Increasing Piss Ratio ?

So guys use full terms , For noobs Pr = Page Rank not Piss Ratio.

Back Links from good page rank sites and lots of traffic

How do you know if you have back links?? When do you get them??

I'm still learning all this stuff. It's alot to take in

lizza · 01-13-2007, 12:31 AM

Get a PR9 backlink. This will definitely help.

Backlinks are links from other websites to yours. Google uses them
as a measure of how popular your website is. If very popular sites
are linking to you, then you must also be popular, which is why it's
good to have PR6+ linking to you.

Laura - you're right, there is no quick fix. Getting more backlinks and
making sure your site is well optimised for search engines is pretty
much the only way of gaining PR. It's a slow process!

Also lets not forget that PR has no correlation to overall traffic. Remember that ultimately it is the amount of traffic that is going to make or break a site. Back links and PR will help with getting ad dollars though as they increase your visibility and advertisers like this as well, but they do look at your traffic stats and many will not advertise on a site with a high pagerank and no measurable traffic. So your plan has to well balanced.

Natural backlinks with proper anchor text though will get your page rank up as you get your links on more sites with varying PR's which in turn will eventually result in higher rankings in the Search engine result pages. Really a vicious circle. Or you could do as some sites do at the beginning and pay for your traffic if you have the money to do this and eventually if your site becomes popular they will link to your site and your PR will shoot up from this as well. Since most people do not have the money needed to do this at the begining doing the hard work of getting natural links is the only way they can truely accomplish all three.

If you are, however, trying to get your PR up this could happen quickly with your first update if you have a good mix of higher PR sites linking back to you. Or you may have to go through a few cycles to hit the up levels of PR. It all depends on your willingness to work at it and your budget if you plan on paying for one-way links.

Personally I would worry more about my traffic and back-links from as many relevant sites as I could. PR is a third place for me on this list.

there is true and false in getting backlink from high PR site.
if you doing that, yes it will faster for ur site to get increase in PR. but its costly, and there is no guarantee in increase.

indeed there is high PR site, that not have many backlink, or only have few small pr backlink, and they can PR high as well. so this incoming high PR cant explain this phenomena.

treat PR = public relation.
more people know & recommend & talk about ur site... the higher ur PR is.

In my experience the pagerank system is a strange one. I have several sites that have PR5 and PR6 pages, but i have less than 10 backlinks all on PR1 sites, so i really can't work out how my site is PR5 and PR6.

But in theory if you want a higher pagerank, try and get some .edu and .gov sites to link to you, but as we all know thats not as easy as it sounds.

submit to directories
article submissions
link exchanges

Write something useful. Create something useful. You will be surprise how many links you get for free.

Write glowing reviews of products/services you like. Many providers will link to your review of their product/service.

Alternatively, you could buy your PR.

It is just...

Links..
