Increasing Your Site’s PageRank

Posted by Tay on July 28, 2007

If you have a website or a blog, then PageRank should be important to you. PageRank is the rank of a page measured from zero to ten, ten being the highest score. PageRank is based solely on links. The higher the PageRank you have, the more important your site is, and the more money you can make with it. PageRank should not be something to obsess over but it should be in your list of priorities if you own a site.

PageRank is determined using mainly three ways:

  • The number of sites linking to the page in question
  • The PageRank of those sites
  • The number of outgoing links you have

So if you want to improve your site’s PageRank, you want more people linking to your site, you want their sites to have as high of PageRank as possible (but even links from small sites help), and you definitely want to decrease the number of other pages you link to, since you’re spreading your PageRank juice.

If you want to learn more about what PageRank is, how to improve your ranking, and how to make money from having PageRank, then I suggest you see this article about getting ready for the upcoming PageRank update. It is a must-read.
