    Hey guys,

    Looking for some advice on boosting my ranking in Google and Yahoo. The site is only a month old so I'm not expecting too much. ;)

    I also have a few questions if you wouldn't mind answering them..

    - Would paying for a high PR link (6,7 or 8) boost my search engine rankings?
    - Is it normal for Google to show no backlinks?
    - Are paying directories worth it (In your opinion?)

    Any tips, advice, suggestions, next steps etc.. regarding anything would be greatly appreciated. :)

    Thanks in advance.

    Nobody? :)

    How is a site like this - http://www.milanfc.com/ - which is a blatant spam site, managing to rank higher in Yahoo than mine! :confused:

    Yahoo is showing about 3,500 backlinks for mine, is this good/bad for a month old site?

    Another question (sorry ;)) - If I search "acmilan" in Yahoo, which only appears once on my page, I'm 8th in the Yahoo rankings. If I search "ac milan", which appears all over my site, im 89th.

    Any help appreciated :)

    A new site that gathers a lot of backlinks quickly in my opinion is bad as far as rankings go, if I wanted to start a new venture and wanted payback/listing quickly I would take over an existing domain.

    Google only shows a selection of backlinks and does not update as regularly as yahoo/msn.

    As far as the site design goes I would try and do more with the header, a lot of blank space up there.
