    So I've hit a PR4 on google and i'm wondering should I continue building back links, is that sure bet that I will be jumped to a PR5. I'm somewhat struggling with building new content, any ideas.

    Well with enough backlinks you will eventually get to PR4, but now you should be more concerned with targeting specific keywords for results rather than going for the number in the toolbar. If nobody sees your site via search results, then the PR is useless anyway.

    Never stop building links - they are the lifeblood of referral traffic.

    PR is nice, but one must focus also on content and improving serps.

    i dont think pr is important like others.. my lots of pr0 site gets huge traffic only from google.. a lot of pr4 site listed under my pr0 sites.. so the golden rule is do your link building but firstly build up your content..

    Well, now that you have PR4, next would be PR5+. I would probably suggest getting social bookmarking and maybe even more directory submissions. Getting blog posts would be highly beneficial too. Good luck. :)

    Make another set of keywords, build links, PR5, another set of keywords, build links, PR6, another set, PR7 and so on.... It is a continuous work... It never stop because your competitor also never stop.. unless you want to be left behind.. :cool:

    the way i see things......

    now that you are at a pr 4 you should focus on the keywords found in your meta tags (title), content, header tags (h1), text links with in the site, and alt tags.

    PR fuels the content found on your pages, the higher your pr, the more powerfull your content is (keywords). Why would a PR 4 out rank a PR 5? becuase your content and tag optimization is more focused.

    Always build links over time, this is an on going task.

    Keep building inbound links. Don't focus on PR but focus on your rankings. Expand your list of keywords and get your site ranked well for more targeted search terms.

    You reached pr4 now. If you stop building links, your pr may also drop.

    Continue building back links to your site. It is good that you have reached a PR of 4 but it is also important to focus on your position on search engines. Continue to promote your site and generate more traffic. If you want to have a much higher PR then try to establish links from PR 5 or higher websites.
