    Today one of my site turned to PR1 from 0. It is known that google updates in every 3 months and since April update it is expected to happen in July. But I just got pr1 today, so do I need to work on more seo for getting more PR or give a short break because nothing will be happen in july ?

    You should continue your linkbuilding activities to get higher PR and stable google ranking. SEO is all about persistence and hardwork.

    I have a property management company and the website has 0 backlinks indexed by google and has a pagerank of 4. I have no idea how but I never do any link building and update it maybe twice a year. The site is about 4 years old so that may have something to do with it?

    the increase of your pr from 0 to 1 is a good indication that you are on the right track, it only means that you have to pay more attention and hard work on your website and besides seo is a continues process not a one time process only.

    I do not understand how can getting a PR be a goal as it serves no purpose unless you are making a site just to sell links or the site itself! :confused:

    Concentrate more on the serps as that is the best way to get traffic and revenue!

    You should be working on SEO every day! There is no end to the number of links you could get out there! And, don't forget to try to get some high PR links while doing this; also, don't worry about your current PR. Hope this helps!

    PR by itself has no real value. I would rather have visitors that buy ( or click Adsense). I never worry about PR (and I don't sell links).

    Getting better ranking for keywords is what matters. Add fresh content to the site regularly and get more backlinks every week.

    I never sell links and do not seek small amount of money from link selling or adsense. It is obvious that if you have competitors with same keywords and also good content you cant be on their top in SERP, PR effects on SERP listing for making you on top if your competitors have also high PR and good content. Do not tell me SERP is not dependent on PR, it is big lie. It might be true if your competitors haven't high pr.

    SEO needs continuous working on your site for example building your links for getting good rankings on your targeted keywords and good PageRank from Google.

    You are walking down the right road if you experienced a PR Update, though PR is not super important, its all about backlinks. Fresh content and hardwork is what you need.

    I wouldn't back off at all, and try not to worry about PR too much either, if you create a good authority site with good quality backilinks the pr will come naturally :)

    Agreed, building your website takes constant work. If you slack off for a while, your efforts could go to waste.
