| | Now that you’ve got your new website
up and running, it’s time to start building your Google Page Rank, or “PR”. Page
rank is the value that Google gives your site, measured by how many quality
links are pointing back to your site, or how popular your site is. The more
links you have pointing back to your site, namely quality links from sites with
a higher PR, the higher your site will be ranked in Google’s search
engine.
The rank is on a scale of 0-10 - ten being the highest rank of course! It takes
time to get a PR higher than zero when first starting out. This is partly
because once you submit your URL to Google and other
search
engines,
it may take weeks or even months before it is indexed. It may also be partly due
to the fact that you just need to build good content for your site, and have
your links on other people’s websites all over the web. Even if you have a PR of
1-5, you are doing well, even though it may not sound like it. The challenge is
for webmasters
to increase their PR as much and as quickly as possible, but how?
First
of all, there are some tools you can use to check your PR, namely the Google
Page Rank Toolbar, which can be downloaded for free from the Google site, and is
installed onto your browser. This allows you to check your own site’s PR, as
well as those of other sites you visit, which will give you a good clue as to
which sites you should be linking to. Linking to sites with a higher PR will
increase your site’s PR. It’s a good idea to do a Google
search
for keywords related to your site’s content, and choose sites to link to whose
PR you know in advance. You can send an email to that webmaster asking to exchange
links.
Not all of them will accept, but the few that do could increase your PR very
quickly just by linking to your site!
Next, it’s important to do some
serious keyword
research
using a keyword search tool, one of the most popular being Overture’s keyword
search tool. With this tool, or other similar tools, you would type in search
terms, such as “make money online”. Since this is a very broad search term, it
is going to be highly competitive and will generate a high number of results for
number of times that term has been searched. When optimizing your site, you want
to avoid these highly competitive terms and use keywords that generate fewer
results, by coming up with a keyword that is searched less, but still
popular.
There are a few tricks to getting ranked higher with regards to
keywords, such as changing some of your source code keywords. For example, you
can change the title tag of your site to match the optimized keywords you want
to use. You can also look at the source code of other people’s sites by clicking
View/Source in your browser while visiting their site to see how optimized their
site is and which tags and images they use or don’t use. It is helpful to
highlight, bold, or italicize your website keywords to get a higher rank,
especially if your competition is not doing that. If you check what your
competition is doing, and do what the higher ranked sites are doing, you may be
able to outrank them!
