Golden Tips To Get Better Google Pagerank
Google’s recent Pagerank update which is still going on has been a maniac for the whole blogosphere. Every blogger tried his best to get a better pagerank but ended up with nothing or a downfall in his previous rank.
Before I start, let us first confirm what exactly Google Pagerank is and how it works.
Google Pagerank is nothing but a complex mathematical algorithm which ranks websites and webpages according to there relevants. Things on which this algorithm works:
- Inbound links
- Outbound Links
- Site Quality
- Search Engine Ranking
- Reputation over the web
So to increase your Pagerank, you need to work on these things but HOW? Here goes my tips to preserve your pagerank and try to get a better one too. 
Links
Links are the base concept of the Google Pagerank algorithm. The number of incoming links to your blog and the number of outgoing links from your blog is a big pagerank factor. The more no. of incoming links you have and the less no. of outgoing links you have determine the best pagerank for you.
How To Get More Incoming Links?
This is a tough topic. If you want more incoming links and authority links, you need to follow some steps:
- Write content worth linking to
- Comment on Other Blogs to establish a better relation which then leads to link sharing
- Never ask for link exchanges directly
- Add your blog URL in your other websites and webpages
- Add you blog URL to your social networking site profile pages
How To Decrease Outgoing Links?
If you want to link to some product your are reviewing, it is very important to mind that you are not overlinking to the site of the product. To take care of it, here are some easy tips:
- Include links at the end of post with the an anchor text
- use URL covering
- Add ‘nofollow’ attribute to the links
Another thing you should be more careful about is DO NOT SELL LINKS. This is very important if you want to please the Google God.
Site Overview
This point has been always forbidden and not taken care of but it is very important and matters a lot. Your website structure is the main thing. Things like javascript errors, wrong HTMLs, errors in CSS etc. can make Google Pagerank spiders hard to crawl through your website and so your indexing is not done properly.
What Can I Do To Make My Blog Perfect For Crawlers?
To make sure that your blog is perfect for spiders and crawlers, validate your blog. Goto W3C Site validator and enter your blog URL there and check.
W3C validator will show you the errors in your blog structure which then you can improve and correct. If you blog is totally valid, your blog is then perfect for spiders and crawlers.
Search Engine Ranking
Pagerank affects your better SERP but it also need a better ranking to get a better pagerank. Your blog posts should get good ranking in there specified category or niche for them to get a rocking pagerank.
How To Get A Better Search Engine Ranking?
- Use All-In-One SEO plugin
- Use better and more specific blog post titles
- Include more niche keywords
- Write the post smart and in simple language
Follow these steps and you will surely get a better Search Engine Ranking.
Site Reputation
Your blog’s reputation over the web matters in your Pagerank. If you have more no. of links from authority sites then it will bring more reputation for your blog. There is no tip to increase your site’s reputation other than to play safe in the blogosphere. 
Other Tips
- Try to concentrate for more incoming links on your blog homepage
- Try to nourish the pages which already have a pagerank to maintain them
- Try to including ‘nofollow’ attribute maximum in your blogrolls or outgoing links.
- Interlink blog posts whenever you write posts which are related.
Hope these tips will help you get a better pagerank in the next PR update!

Good point there Rishi,
I also think that our title description, permalinks, and meta tags help.

Your post has been very helpful, as I’ve not completely understood about page ranking. I had Stumbled upon another blog that provided a link to check my current page rank, PR3, so that at least gave me a head start on figuring all this out. Live and learn.
Yes, I got PR 2 for my blog.. I learn about All-In-One SEO plugin to achieve good ranking in Google. It’s really help me..
Thanks
What’s Up with Pagerank…
Google is doing what they do best…..that is, constantly updating the process whereby they rank the quality of your webpage or blog. It usually happens every couple of months and is always upsetting to those who try to trick Google into thinking t…
Hello! May I know what you mean by url covering? Thanks!
Interlinking, Social Bookmarking (not spamming), Article Submissions and On Page Optimization… This is all I did, and I got PR2 and PR4 for my blogs…
Great post by the way…
Thanks for the tips guys…
I really like the sounds of the All-In-One plugin..yet to use it though

Sad to see a blog such as yours advocating the ‘No Follow’ policy.
If you’re not prepared to show a little link love to people who spend the time to comment on your posts and thereby add fresh new content to your pages then, in my book, you’ve got the wrong end of the stick generally and about blogging in particular which to me is all about interactivity and connecting with people.
The Akismet plugin and comment moderation will stop all spam so why be so mean? There’s so much else you can do to impress Google and the ‘No Follow’ policy effect is negligible at best.I use Firefox developers plugin so I can see when a link is a no follow one and am actively discouraged from commenting on those blogs.
The first thing I do when setting up a new wordpress blog is to upload the ‘Do Follow’ widget and promote the fact that I’m using it.
You can find a link to the ‘Do Follow’ widget within this blog post:

and also how to remove the evil ‘No Follow’ attribute manually. Think about it this way: if you are leaving a comment on my blog which ‘follow’ policy would you prefer?
I agree with you Rashi. The SEO-All-In-One plugin is a great tool to optimize page ranking in search engines.

Sorry…My weblink missing…
Could u pls explain further on url covering, sounds interesting
Thanks for the link, I’ll be doing this eventually but I dont want to use a Widget or plugin, I’ll edit the theme files directly..
Hi,
Could you please explain about why to not ask directly for link exchange?
Many Thanks.
Ok, I am a newbie to blogging-I used a combination of EasyWordpress and WPInstaller, put up 9 blogs (I’m not going to go into how time that took) and I just used the validator to test two of them. One has 96 errors and the other has 113. To my untrained to code eyes, I don’t see what the heck the thing is talking about and I certain don’t understand the explainations in the results so how do I fix this?
Hi Mary,
I’m not able to help you in regards to this as I’m no coder. I just wanted to acknowledge that your question has been heard and hopefully somebody will pipe in with a possible solution.
Often when errors are highlighted it is due to some tags not being closed or an overly excess repeat of the same tags. But explaining this would only complicate matters more. The validator is a good strart and they also point you to some solutions.
Unfortunately they sound like gobbledigook for somebody not familiar with tech terms. It happened to me too. I tend not to worry too much about these errors if they don’t interrupt my blogs outlay and focus more on content.
Otherwise I’m afraid you might have to learn html coding to rectify the problems.
Monika
Most of the “invalid” codes don’t really cause problems on your blog, but it’s not just compliant to the “standards”. I recommend that you get a programmer to do this for you..
A very good article. Thank you.
Site Overview is often overlooked. I had a website, not a blog, built with XsitePro which however hard I worked on it persisted as PageRank zero!
Running it through w3c validation tool brought up huge numbers of errors
Two weeks after rebuilding it in clunky old FrontPage the PR jumped to 2 and then a week later PR=3. This with same content, links etc
And then I discovered WP!
Note to Mary above – perhaps post your blog URLs in the forum and I’m sure some clever soul will help!

Many thansks. I will try this to my new online shop….
I think that quality content is the trick, if you manage to write content that grabs your readers attention there is a higher chance that they will blog about it and link back to it. Also by gaining mentions from other blogs your site will get known by those readers which in return might also blog about your content!
I still have problem about this topic, i work hard but not work properly.
Quality Content is the biggest factor i think.
Hello,
thanks for your article. Good backlinks is the result of quality backlinks, so it plays all together to get a good SERP. Just one little tip: Writing relevant articles on article directories such as Ezine Articles helps to get targeted traffic and nice links :=)
Very helpful.
