What directly affects your Page Rank? I know CONTENT and BACKLINKS do, but what else? Or is that all that affects it? Any help is much appreciated .
PR automatically increase if your page is most important for user. You need more traffic to become a important site for the user. You have to increase the interesting volume of the content in your site to drive the traffic.
Well I do know that my stuff is high quality, I guess what I'll have to do is really buckle down and spend time posting on related forums and work on posting comments in related blogs......That is probably a good way to start. I should also ask around work.....I do telemarketing for one of the major SEO companies in the USA. So they are probably a good resource if I can stop one of the web techs long enough to get into SEO....
I don't agree with you. If your website's content is valuable enough for you visitor then your PR will increase. I don't think backlinks are deciding factor for PR. I have experienced it. I launched my website with valuable content and only on-page SEO done. No off-page SEO. and after 3 months the PR of the website increased from 0 to 3.
BL, Content and also even clicks caus eto increase BL... possible ways is make BL rfom good site like DP and also update content regulerly...
We have a website for users not for SE so why you focus on PR and backlinks. We need a quality contents for users
Yes, but content may also indirectly help increase your PR. If your site contains some quality and interesting content, and other sites found it as a useful resources to their site, they will naturally link with your site. And if your link is placed in a higher PR and the link provided is dofollow, your site's PR will also increase.
