Back Links and PR

Hello


I am slowly getting to grips with SEO.

When i check my page rank on some sites i am told that i need more back links.

I have seen that i have about 70 links mainly from forums. What advise would you give to do the following:

1. Increase page rank
2. Increase back links

Any assistance would be brillent.

Kind regards
James

1)join forumz and post your URL on them.(better to just put your URL on the signature part in the forum)
2)Submit your site tsearch engine directories
3)get links to your site from other sites

(also submit your site to http://www.pagerank10.co.uk/ they give you heaps of backlinks like a thousand or something

and moderators please do not delete this or because it is from ages ago)

Thank you for the recommendations.

I have added myself to the URL.

I think i need to work on my back links as i am registered with google, yahoo,etc....

I have also added myself to the site you suggested.

yeah and another thing try to add your URL to dmoz directory since most search engines crawl through that site heres the link http://dmoz.org/add.html

Just a note. Here at Webforumz we have a rel="no follow" added to links so google will not see your link unless you become a supermember. Then your links will show.

i read in some post by rob he said if you become a super member or if you link to webforumz then he will allow your site i forgot which thread it was in

Yeah that's what I just said..

no you said if you become a super member

God.. read your post!!! Whatever............

Now now. I do believe that you pay $20 or something and that gives you the supermember status. You get a lovely shiny badge and as linda said the rel="no follow" will then be removed. Or you'll be put on an allow list. Or however it works. I keep meaning to do that myself.

I think we've covered the fact that WebForumz puts rel="nofollow" on signature links. But we should also mention that most forums do this, so going around posting like a maniac isn't gonna help.
Also, links from meaningless pages won't help. The validity of an incoming link depends on the text used, the context it's in (sorrounding text), the title and description of the page, the headings on the page, etc...

This won't directly affect your PR, but it increases your exposure, which can eventually lead to more links, which can eventually increase your PR.

Again, relevance is the essence of incoming links. Link text, surrounding text, page title, description, headings, keyword density, humber of links on the page, PR of the page, and so on...
I'm sorry to keep referring to my own blog posts, but I recommend you read this before you get carried away 'link hunting'.

Well... I can see the appeal, but I would concentrate my efforts into heavier SEO techniques, such as article marketing.

okay listen to spinal007 hes the next Rob. I am not an SEO expert.
