Google PageRank Explained
1. What is PageRank? " PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page's value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B. But, Google looks at more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives; it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves "important" weigh more heavily and help to make other pages "important." In other words, PageRank is simply a mechanical algorithm by Google that attempts to evaluate the importance of your website larged based on the amount and quality of backlinks your website have.

Google states that they do not recommend webmasters exchange links to increase their PR. They see it as trying to "game" their search engine. Lastly, many people believe that a higher PR causes Googlebot to crawl through a page more often. 4. Is it a good idea to buy links for a higher PR? 5. But I still would like to improve the PR of my site. What should I do? 6. How many links would I need to get my homepage to PR7? 7. I've acquired many backlinks to my site. Why isn't my PR improving? 8. How often do PR change? 9. Why is my PR in the Google Directory different than my toolbar PR? 10. Why is it so much harder to go from PR6 to PR7 than from PR5 to PR6? 11. I just lost all my PR! 12. If PR is virtually useless, then why is it so expensive to "buy"? 13. What's up with the PageRank formula I see on the Net?

So why make your web site so hard for search engines to figure out? How To Indirectly Get To The Top Of Search Engines There are millions of web sites trying to get listed in the top 20 spots of the major search engines. That amounts to a lot of competition! Even if your website can't get in the Top 20, you can use indirect ways to get it there. Have You Heard Of Website Optimization Have you heard of website optimization ? If you are building a website or have a new one and you have never heard of it, then you had better take note, because if you want to climb the ladder on the search engines it is something you need to learn about. Website optimization means optimising your website so the search engine spiders will love it. Press Releases Can Increase Search Engine Positioning When you write a press release, what is your ultimate goal? No doubt, getting the information to as many publications and on as many Web sites as possible. The focus lies in moving outward? taking the press release to as many *other* sources as possible.

We block them by IP exclusion which is another story entirely. Top Ten Listing? Hmmmmmmmm This is my question... The Other Side of the Search Gods Abracadabra! Thousands of servers ...billions of web pages.... the possibility of individually sifting through the WWW is null. The search engine gods cull the information you need from the Internet...from tracking down an elusive expert for communication to presenting the most unconventional views on the planet. Name it and click it. Beyond all the hype created about the web heavens they rule, let's attempt to keep the argument balanced. From Google to Voice of the Shuttle (for humanities research) these ubiquitous gods that enrich the net, can be unfair ...and do wear pitfalls. And considering the rate at which the Internet continues to grow, the problems of these gods are only exacerbated further. Even More Tips For Getting A Top 10 Search Engine Ranking! I have spent some time discussing the 5 different options you have for getting your web site listed in the search engines. Just to make sure that we're all on the same page, let's quickly review? Would You Like More PageRank? The higher the PR of your site the higher will be its search engine position. So the goal is to get lots of sites linking to your site.

Search Engine Spam Running an online business relies to a greater or lesser extent on search engine traffic. Be this free search engine traffic or pay per click traffic your business still relies on the search engines to profit and survive. LSI and Link Popularity When Paypal's official Web site no longer ranked #1 in Google on a search for "paypal," it was obvious that Google had become more aggressive in penalizing sites with "unnatural" backlink anchor text. Although the high-profile Paypal example has since been rectified, thousands of webmasters are suffering the consequences of not ranking for even their official company name, let alone their top keywords. It is important for search engine optimizers to understand both how anchor text penalties are being applied and how LSI ensures that anchor text variance will not dilute a link popularity building campaign.
