    Hi folks,

    Thought you might like to discuss this example:

    Recently took a site from a client wich was a total cr**. (not the client but the site) Now 3 months have passed and the index is still PR0 and most of the content pages are PR3 or at least PR1.

    Index page was to be optimized for 3 main keyphrases (don't ask me why).
    The Key-Phrase-1.php page is opimized for the "Key Phrase 1"

    If you google for "Key Phrase 1" you will get the Index page (PR0, kword density less than 2%) in Top10 and the Key-Phrase-1.php (PR3, kword density 5%, buzzing with juicy and relevant copy) in Top60.

    Is it really just because the index has most of the backlinks? I'll try a new internal linking method and post an update here.
