Hey there fellows! I haven’t been blogging the last few days much. My time was taken up by school and other secret projects ;). Recently, Google updated its Pagerank. So, whoever worked smart or hard for their site in the last quarter got a juicy Pagerank. And guess what Pagerank I have got? A PR 3! I was actually surprised. So, I did work hard for my blog.
What about other blogs?
Almost all of my blog buddies got a PR update. Tom from StandoutBlogger got a PR 2, same for Melvin. Rajaie from RajaieTalks got a PR 3. Jason from The University Kid got a PR 4.
Looking at the top A-listing blogs in the blogosphere, I can say that some of rankings were not fair. John Chow got a PR 3! Hehe. John and me are same. Jim from The Net Fool has done a fair value analysis of the Pageranks given to different blogs.
How you can increase your PR
Google will most likely update its Pagerank after 3 months or so. So, till then, here are some tips for you to improve your blog’s PR:
- Kill outgoing links - You need to do this first to ensure that your PR doesn’t get affected by this. Although linking to other sites is not bad, there are a few spammers that try to take advantage of this. If you link to shady sites, then there is a sure chance that your PR will take a hit. So enable nofollow on all your comments.
- Comment on other Blogs - I have been emphasizing on this point since the beginning of this blog. Comments are the biggest source of traffic for my blog. If you are smart enough, comment on blogs that are dofollow and have CommentLuv enabled. But be careful, don’t just go and spam those blog.
- Use a smart way to get PR - This chart shows how many links you need to boost your Pagerank. Use it smartly. Instead of getting 3055 linkbacks from PR 1 sites, you need just 18 links from a PR 4 site to get a Pagerank 4. Isn’t that smart?
- Write quality posts - This is the most important tip. Write quality posts. Only this will ensure the survival of your blog.
Follow these tips and you’ll surely get a PR update in the next 3 months :). Tell me what you think.
