My first webpage to get a PageRank 5
Google recently updated their "PageRank database" - so the Google Toolbar displayed some new stats when I was visiting my websites.
The home page of one of the first websites I set up, WorkAtHomeMadeEasy.net is now PR5! Which makes it the first webpage that I own to get a PageRank 5. This site was created for me when I joined the Plug-In Profit Site system over 3 years ago.
So it has taken me some time to reach that level. But I haven't been working that hard on increasing my PageRank. I've just gradually been doing some article marketing (submitting my articles to directories, etc.), exchanging links and providing good content.
Having a PageRank 5 webpage has its benefits. All the other pages on the domain that I'm linking to will increase a little bit in the PageRank scale - as well as my other websites and other link partners that I'm linking to. It should also be easier for me to exchange links with high-quality pages now because many look at the PageRank of a webpage when considering swapping links (although PageRank isn't the be all and end all when evaluating the quality of a website). I should also be able to charge more if I decided to sell links on my site (although I probably won't because Google frowns upon that).
Increasing your PageRank is actually exponentially harder the higher your PageRank is - it's much harder to go from PR3 to PR4 than it is to go from PR2 to PR3.
- Getting a PageRank 1 is easy - you only need a few links from sites that are already indexed by Google
- Getting a PR2 is pretty easy - a few more links and/or 1 or 2 links from quality pages (PR4+).
- PR3 shouldn't be that hard - a few dozen links from good webpages.
- To get PR4 you need at least 100+ links (preferably from PR2+ pages) or a few links from high-quality pages (PR5+).
So, my next goal is to get a PageRank 6 webpage ;) But I'll need some serious amount of links (or a few high-quality links) to reach that level.
By the way, I just set up a new reciprocal links directory that people are welcome to add their link to if they want to increase their PageRank.
