Not really... pagerank is mostly about backlinks. I've got a blog that's had its PR updated twice in the past year and a half. Which is more than I can say about content updates... about two or three posts in that time. And it's just short posts about my kids, not sure that can be considered "quality"
Join forums, forums are a great way to achieve links to your website. In most forums you are allowed to have a signature and in your signature you can put a link to your website. But another important note to look on is making sure the forum is somewhat related to your website. You will still get credit if it’s not, but if it’s related to your website than you will be accomplishing two tasks at once.
There are several ways you can do to increase the Page Rank, while I've ever done is as follows: 1. Always Update. 2. Register our blog to Google, Yahoo, MSN. 3. Sending Your Link. This way is the most powerful way to increase Page Rank. 4. Blogwalking. This method is intended to make us become more popular blogs. 5. Submit to web directories, submit to profit from web directories is that we can get backlinks from websites that had a high pagerank, to search the web directory we can find it on google with the keyword "submit directory". 6. Submit blogs / articles to social bookmarking our blog, this method is very powerful because of social bookmarking have a high PR so quickly indexed by google. 7. Frequently visiting other blogs to leave footprints (comments) because this way we can get one way backlinks. 8. By using software such as RankEnhancer, you try to search it on google to download it for free. 9. Register your blog to the official websites provide backlink, but this way is not free. 10. List your blog to Growurl it. 11. Install the Alexa Toolbar, Alexa Rank Widget keep your blog and ask friends to review your Alexa profile. 12. Submit your Blog to the Webmaster.
