Hello Members, I have a query about how to maintain my site's Page Rank and increase quality traffic. please advice me.
Don't bother much about PR. Concentrate on search ranking, conversions and retaining your visitors. Create good content, get some quality links and you will get quality traffic. You PR may also increase because of the quality links.. but that shouldn't be the aim
PR does nothing to increase your traffic... unless the traffic you are looking to get are other SEO people looking to get backlinks from your high PR site.
You can increase your quality traffic by getting more links back to your site for the search terms where you want to rank.
Work on getting high quality links with favorable anchor texts, this will help your PR (not that it matters), and your SERPS (more traffic, that does matter).
just maintain what you're doing in the past months, over SEO can decrease PR. Just concentrate more on how to better optimize your site.
learn more about seo and get quality backlinks regularly. Use article directories, squidoo, hubpages and you will maintain your PR and also get targetted traffic
If Google takes your suggestion, than it will definitely gets collapsed. Look at here. Any question? than ask Google.
Believe me.. google won't collapse. They will like it. I have read that page multiple times and I had read the first version of the page too. Let me repeat.. DON'T bother about PR. concentrate on SERPs. You can get 1000s of backlinks but if you don't have the right anchor text / surrounding text you won't feature in SERPs. You can be number one but if don't have the right content in place.. if won't convert in sales.. and you might have PR10 and might be number 1 for the highest traffic term but if you don't offer good content you won't be able retain your visitors.. To repeat.. google will say the same thing .. don't worry about PR.. concentrate on SERPs. PR is just one of many (maybe hundreds) of factors.
Let me provide the link of Google official Page where some what written that u said. It should be posted on the Google domain. Note: Don't provide any Blogger's link
http://www.google.com/corporate/tech.html If you can read it you will find PR is not the only thing. . Do you work for rapid vector seo? I sympathize with your clients. I hope you didn't mean Matt Cutts by 'any blogger'..
I still think, you are very poor at reading. there are more than 200 signals, including our patented PageRankâ„¢ Can u list all 200 here. PR is the most Important that's why they have used specifically PR. And others are important but least important against PR. There is nothing what u've exactly said. Yeah, But more you need. Listen, Matt Cutts is only consultant, and he has own Blog and whatever he gonna writes, is not always right, he just writing his experience nothing else. And more than an assumption. Now it's my turn to say, I sympathize with your clients. You believe in Matt, more than a Google. Don;t try to spoil community. Remember, one thing expertise does not count by Post and Reps. You know any W3MASTER, He was having the same mind like you. He had triple reps, than what you right now having. and more than 13 K post, You haven't yet completed 1 K yet. He has already been banned because he was having more than 1 k to 2 k of post on this subject, what you are speaking. Now he has been banned in DP... At last be practical and get some knowledge.
If you want to enhance your website traffic then do on page optimization and also try to do off page optimization. If you want to know more then read blog by matt cutt or googlegenie blog.
No. I don't have a reading problem. Because I didn't say PageRank is not use for SERPs. But it's 'one of the many factors'. No I can't list 200 factors here. But I guess you would also know all the commonly used factors and since you work as an SEO I don't think I need to tell you the factors myself. PR is important and I don't deny that. I have low PR websites ranking higher than higher PR websites for terms that both the websites use in title. High PR doesn't mean good SERPs. It just a factor. And that's why I would again say that one should concentrate on SERPs, conversions and retaining visitors and not on PR. I don't care who matt cutts is .. and i know that he has retracted what he has said many times. I didn't say I believe in Matt Cutts (leave aside believing him more than google). It's funny how you managed to draw that inference. It was you who brought up his name in discussion by using the term 'any blogger'. He is definitely not 'any blogger' Don't sympathize with my clients. I don't provide SEO services and I don't feed false information to anyone. Exactly what I would like to tell you. DO NOT impose your biased opinions on others. I don't agree with people who say PR is everything and I also don't agree with those who say PR is worthless. But a webmaster shouldn't worry about PR, he/she should worry about SERPs, conversions and repeat visitors. You are the one bringing up post count in this discussion. It's you who is obsessed with numbers like PR and post count and not me. BTW, I agree with your statement that expertise is not counted by post and reps.. You obviously don't know what you are talking about People don't get banned in DP for saying PR is God or PR is worthless. They get banned for not following the guidelines. I am very practical and I am learning everyday. Thanks for the advice.
Listen, "For your kind information, i have not used any where, PR is only Important" I dun't care who mattcuts is too, but the name you taken first. I just wrote, only blogger, so how can u make an assumption? It's very good to know from you that you are really not providing SEO. U really did not know who the W3Master is: Asked to a senior member, why he has been banned? Hope you understand every thing. At last i would like to say, You are very diplomatic person, i like the way you responded. Good learner also should be a good listener. Don't get anything personally.
To maintain your PR always use ethical seo do not any type of black hat seo.May be doing white Seo you do not gain traffic immediately.But if you apply white hat seo you get quality traffic and get good results after some time.Your site will never goes down.Concentrate on the content for your site.
To obtain high page rank (PR) is great. You have gained bragging rights. To obtain high SERP placement for a keyword is great. You have gained bragging rights. But if the site has garbage for content, everyone will go away. We sell SEO services and get to brag all the time. But no matter what we say to our clients about content, bad content give them bad traffic. Good content get traffic. Although SERP placement helps, PR doesn't. Focus on making content that is current, needed and interesting. Then SEO it. Do one page at a time and don't worry about the whole site.
