Page Rank Ying Yang
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. You can also follow me on Twitter. Thanks for visiting!
Google page rank is the most preferred ranking system by many advertisers. It is a good way to compare your company with your greatest competitors in online. Unlike, “New Alexa” ranking system, page rank is unpredictable. Some trials show that a sleepy blog (one post in a month) can reach PR5 with zero link building activity. When it comes to page rank, dofollow links plays the vital role. It is similar as the weight / juice that contributes or affect your current page rank.
Here, I’m going to share where you get positive (Incoming dofollow links) that will help you increase pagerank. Also, the negative points that will drag your page rank down. If you manage to get a good balance, then you next page rank won’t change. If your positive side is heavier, then most probably your page rank will rise and it goes the other way around for negative side.
Positive (+ve) Page Rank
1. Link from published comments from other blogs (dofollow)
2. Link from published pingbacks from other blogs (dofollow)
3. Link from blogroll (dofollow)
4. Link from forums signature and body (dofollow)
5. Link from social bookmarking (dofollow)
6. Link from article or other directories (dofollow)
7. Link from featured/banners/advertisements (dofollow)
8. Link from contents of web/blog/forums/etc (dofollow)
Negative (-ve) Page Rank
1. Commentators URL from your blog posts (dofollow blogs)
2. Links out from contents of your website/forum/blog (dofollow)
3. Links out from your blogrolls or sidewide or page links (dofollow)
4. Links out from featured/banners/paid links sidewide or page (dofollow)
5. Links out from your header/footer/plugin/widget from your website/blog/forum (dofollow)
If you notice, only dofollow links will be considered in page rank calculation. If you are page rank sensitive person, you should be wise in giving out dofollow links and getting more dofollow links pointing to your site.

If removed, then you are passing some page rank juice to your commentators which will reduce your page rank bank. If you involve in some link building activity, that can give a good balance.

Page Rank is quite illogical at times….mine seems to have dropped to 3, yet Google Directory still shows “4″. My links went from 4,800 to over 7,000+ between 12-31-08 and the present time……The GOOD NEWS is that PR has no effect on one’s SERP….my site is still on top of Non-Sponsored Results…one of my competitors has a PR of “0″ and his site is also at the top of the Search Engines.

PR have no effect on SERP. I agree on that. Luckily SERP is related to the keywords. PR is just a guidance. The most important thing is the traffic. Search engine traffic is most important of all. If we manage to keep good track record there, I think any PR will survive.

PR can be tricky. Have good content to pass around and the links come naturally. Doing a one way backlinks campaign can give you a boost. Great advice for those trying to increase page rank.

I agree with you. Good content will do the SEO part itself. But, it may take some time to get exposure. Most of the good bloggers don’t wait till then.

I’ve never been a fan of giving out dofollow in comments.In my opinion, it’s just a breeding ground for spam, or people who aren’t truly interested in what you have to say.

The main concept of dofollow is to give some value to our commentators. From reading their comments, we can know is it a spam or written related to the blog post. Of course, the amount of time to spend for a dofollow blog is higher as we need to do more moderation on comments. Well, that shows we are serious in blogging too. It depends on which angle we are looking at.

I don’t necessarily think that externally linking to a relavant site hurts a websites ranking. What is not helpful is free for all websites.

PR would. Any outgoing dofollow links will effect negatively and incoming dofollow link will effect positively. It depends on the weight of link (page’s PR) that the link goes.

I see! So you need a balance outbound and inbound links to consider to make a higher PR later.

A balance is to make sure we don’t lose PR. Getting heavy backlinks (especially dofollow backlink from higher PR pages) will help to boost our PR.

In terms of page rank is negative value. Dofollow blog have its advantages. That is why I still remain this blog as dofollow. I’m one of the proud dofollow blogs member.

Getting a higher page rank is the desire of almost all website owners. And my friends really go all out to make a good impression, in an ethical way at least.
