I'm wondering if anyone can help me here. I have a site with decent pagerank on the homepage which has come from a link building campaign. The homepage then links through to various internal pages and subdomains, but none of these have recieved any pagerank. The links have been there for about 12 months, as has the pagerank on the homepage, so it's not just a matter of waiting in this case. Is there any reason why pagerank would not move throughout the site? and is there anything that could help?
Well an URL would help a lot, but now I guess that you don't use any static sitemap or thos links are written in javascript.
Actually there is a sitemap, all with html links, and there are normal html links(not javascript) on the homepage !!!
onpage optimization helps you ,link you pages to each other with good keywords.Get few backlinks to subpages also and crosslink pages
as of what i am seeing your pages are not html http://www.homefromhome.co.uk/site/booking http://www.homefromhome.co.uk/site/servicedapartments
Maybe I'm blind, but I can't see any sitemap (html file extension, not xml) that would make the PR flow easier among the inner pages.
Actually you're right the sitemap that was on that site was taken down. The same problem appears on an adsense site I have as well http://www.destinationlondon.co.uk/ here there is a sitemap, and the homepage has had pr over 12 months but none of the internal pages have any. Is it better if I make all the pages .html and then have a html sitemap on both?
This is very strange. The fact that .html is missing has nothing to do with the PR of the page, witch returns Content-Type: text/html;
Are you sure all your links in ( homefromhome.co.uk/site ) work? or not broken? The page you donot need any ((( /site ))) in href. Have a good day.
Yes the links are all fine on both sites, there's no obvious reason why the PR hasn't spread, that's why I'm looking for ideas :O on the homefromhome site there are no some external links to some of the inner pages, but that doesn't even seem to have helped
Friend, there can be several reasons why your page don't get internal PR. First - all your whatever.page.co.uk are subdomains, but google takes it as different domains and you get PR as for completely different pages for them. The second thing is there are practices used which can be penalized in google (automaticly generated content, keywords spam). I suggest to rebuild this page from the sratch. Good luck!
Ah yes I can see the subdomains could be an issue, I hadn't realised they were treated as completely different domains, that certainly goes some way to explaining whats happening on destinationlondon. There is no duplicated content however, content is split into subdomains due to there being different yet related subject matter on each.
I suggest to you to remove all 'related keywords' which can really hurt your site in Google position. Add more real content.
Odd ... I'd expect at least a PR1/2. However, they are indexed by Google, most of the pages show the main page linking to them (as of yesterday at least), they aren't banned/supplemental, and they come up in the searches. Given all that, PR really doesn't matter for your internal pages, since you probably wouldn't be using them for link building, right?
Hi Anita Actually we are aiming to do a lot of link buliding at the internal pages to drive trafic to them, more than the homepage really! in fact we've been building links to these already which only makes the situation seem even stranger!
