i used to have an awesome page rank under sandyrowley.com, i changed the biz name to megastarmedia.com and now have 0 rank. i have a good deal of back links and more are being added monthly, but it has not affected it at all. i search for megastarmedia.com in google and it is not there, but if you search for text megastarmedia you can find it. does anyone know whats up here? thanks for your help
Is megastarmedia.com a new site? If so, then you have to start from scratch in the eyes of a search engine.
Do a 301 redirect from your old site to the new one. Search for 301 redirects in the forum; you'll find out how to do it.
Well, I think Google is updating PR every 3 months+ now, but you'll need to get links in order to get a PR at all. I suggest joining the Free Coop Ad Network (it will help to build your back links). Also, submitting to directories would be helpful. Check out this thread for a list of free ones: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=144 . That should get you started, but there are 100's of other things you can do to build PR (or more importantly rise in the ranks of search engines). Hope that helps and good luck!
There is no fast way. You have to earn it. Your site can be crawled just by putting your URL on your sig.
