I think also that content is the most important thing, then backlinks, traffic.. I hope I have PR5 some day
As much as I would love to achieve it, It does not seem to want to happen Depressing, I am looking at alternates though. Sean
I want to gain some quality backlinks, I currently have 8 with my hosting business but want more for both that site and http://atechforum.com. Sean
i used to get 4-5 websites with PR5 in each update..now i hardly get one!! anyway i got PR6 twice...my target one day to achieve PR7
I'm sitting at 2, but have only started my efforts with SEO. Its interesting on this site, as some people tell you to focus on IBL, and others have you just focus on the content, and the IBL will come. I doubt the latter as I am a business site, but I guess there is a happy median to be found here.
Didn't happen to me but if you reach high pr, don't add links to your site. Pr will drop at the next update
The best that I've been able to get is a PR3, but for me it doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is how much a site makes me.
My blog is a pr4 last time I checked. Used to be a pr7 but I proved a major open source developer to be a liar and a racist and lost all those support forum links.
I achieved PR4 on one web site mainly with backlinks from forums, especially from forum.joomla.org forum, since they have some PR5 pages.
Some blogs that i see only have PR3 but his traffic is like 18000 to 15000 per day lol. How is that possible???
I had PR5 briefly a few years ago (primarily due to a link from a PR6 page). I lost that link and have been PR4 ever since. Many of my inner pages are also PR4 or PR3. I have an extensive internal linking strategy and don't "hog" the PR on my home page. Many of those inner PR3 and PR4 pages get traffic directly from the search engines, not via the home page. P.S. Yahoo Site Explorer shows 7,432 backlinks.
