    So recently google rated my blog a 0/10? how is that possible i thought you get a page rank based on how many keywords you are listed in ok. I am listed in over 100 keywords, why is my blog not a page rank 3 based on this chart im looking at in my SEO book.

    Can somebody please explain.

    PageRank has NOTHING to do with keywords! PR is based totally on the quantity and quality of backlinks to a page. You need to get rid of your SEO book.

    SEO for dummies is the book and i know this guy is right because they wouldnt allow him to write a book if he was an idiot and, im pretty sure he is right based on the fact my first blog got listed in 2 keywords now my new blog is listed in over 100.

    The chart in the book looks somthing like this

    You need to go back and read the book again. You have totally misread it.

    The numbers in that table are number of LINKS not the number of keywords!

    Just because you rank for different keywords doesn't mean those links count towards page rank. Page rank comes from actual links to your site.

    First off if i didnt read the book right how come i got over 900 visitors the other day?

    10k in page views this month with little work i spend about 2 hours a day on my blog?

    By this chart im a pr 3 because i have over 200 backlinks. This chart makes no sence.

    Even when i read this explanation im left dumbfounded.

    How about you explain how this works rather then just attacking me. Look if you dont want to help thats your prerogative but if you do help dont sit and just attacking my book. In fact if you have a problem with the writer of the book Peter Kent then you can email him and fight with him.

    I am not attacking you.

    You came here making the claim that PR is based on keywords. I simply pointed out you were wrong. PR is has nothing to do with keywords.

    Please show us exactly what he said in the book that PR is related to keywords. I guarantee he did not say that,

    The chart is not accurate. If you have 200 backlinks to your site, then they could all be PR0 or on pages not indexed in Google, which means they pass no link juice to you.

    I bet he did not say that! A backlink is NOT a backlink - backlinks are not created equal. A backlink could be from a site not indexed in Google --> its a useless backlink; a backlink could be nofollowed --> its a useless backlink; a backlink could be on a PR0 page and there are a 100 other links on the pages --> its a useless backlink; etc.

    or a backlink could be on a high PR page and if there are not many other links on that page --> its a fantastic backlink.

    I get a ton of backlinks from reddit users comments sure they are not ranked by google and doesnt really help that much but that is a lie backlinks help no mater the case. They can help with traffic or getting more traffic ect.

    Idk what is with this lie that backlinks with little to no page rank have no value.

    I have 100 keywords im listed in the top 10 im listed in a keyword number 1 that gets over 5k searches a month so obiously im not far off.

    It may take some time for the page rank algorithm to readjust your rating.

    By the sounds of the traffic you're getting, you're fine. :)
