How To Prepare For The Next PageRank Update
Do you want to be an ‘A-List’ blogger one day? What does it take to make it to the top? There are many factors to achieving your long-term blogging goal and PageRank is on that list!
I’m sure that most of you are aware of the famous Google PageRank system and if you are not then I will explain quickly. PageRank relies on unique independent identifiers used in a voting system determine by Google for which then give the value of an individual’s site.
During the last PageRank update in April this site went from a PR0 to PR5. According to the experts Google’s PageRank update takes place approximately every 3 months which in my opinion is an excellent amount time for preparation. Below you will read about methods that I have used that you can take advantage of to start boosting your PageRank today!
PageRank Prediction
To get started use a PageRank prediction tool to see where you stand for the next update. The PageRank prediction tool is used to predict your website’s PageRank based on the quantity and quality of backlinks. Take note that these tools only provide an estimate of future PageRank and should not be taken literally since its not precise.
- Selfseo: prediction tool
- iWebtool: prediction tool
According to both of these prediction tools this site should be a PR6 on the next update but who knows what will happen with Google in control!
DoFollow Blogs
Just yesterday I jumped on the dofollow wagon that started back in April. What the dofollow plugin does is remove the nofollow tag off the commenting section allowing readers to receive a full credit linkback. This is great news because this means that every comment you make on a dofollow blog will now count as a linkback to your site.
To get you started I have found a list of 170 + blogs that dofollow including mine! The draw back to this is it will be a time consuming endeavor because when you leave a comment you should be sincere and leave something relative (not a spam comment)
Review Blogs For Link Back
I’m not 100% sure but I think John Chow is the one that started the review my blog for a back link promotion so I give him credit. I started my review my blog 1st of March and since then I have completed 17 batches giving a total 170 backlinks from sites that reviewed my blog. The method I used was each batch that John uploaded I emailed those people offering the same promotion – that’s it. If you have not reviewed my site and want a PR5 linkback then just follow the rules below:
To do a review, all you have to do is link to this blog’s home page with the anchor text “personal blog” and link to this post showing the rules of the review. Here is an example of what I want:
The editor of Ja Kel Daily Dot Com personal blog is offering to link to your blog if you review his blog.
Then email me jason@jakeldaily.com the URL to your review and I will post your link with anchor choice in return.
Blog Networks
This is a paid method and I realize people are tight when it comes to speeding on their blogs because I was one of those people for a long time until I realized it takes money to make money in this industry.
Really straight forward just submit an article max 500 words with 3 links to your site, paypal $25 to admin@jakeldaily.com. Then with in 24 hours I will submit it to 40 blogs giving you a total of 120 links and an increase of 40 authority for Technorati. Soon I will be adding an additional 10 blogs for a total of 50 blogs – same price!
Free Directories
Getting links from directories can have a tremendous effect on your PageRank since some are recognized as high authority (vote) sites. There are few ways that you can go about this. You can pay people to submit your URL to select directories or you can submit yourself.
To submit to directories yourself I recommend a program called Directory Submitter Standard and it’s absolutely free unless you want to upgrade it for more directories. I’ve personally used the free version which allows you to submit to 350 directories and I found the process extremely easy. Submit to over 2200 directories.
Content Is Key
Without good content a blog will fail! Never upload for the sake of it! When you post an article you are representing your name/blog and should always take attention to detail to produce quality long lasting articles that are readable for years to come.
Google loves great unique content and this will get you index much quicker especially if the articles contain strong keywords. Do not confuse what I’ve just said because I’m not suggesting you write for Google/search engines. When writing your articles you should always write them the way you want to get your point across to readers and the Google indexing will come into play naturally.
Speed linking
Yes speed linking the most criticized method of boosting your backlinks. Everyone’s doing it and if they aren’t then they are closet wantabes! Two methods that I have used and found extremely successful are ViraTags and ViraLinks.
- ViraTags speeding linking is good for both SEO and Technorati increase.
- ViraLinks is good for only Technorati increase.
If you are afraid of all the rumors out there that you will be penalized for using such methods then I advice do not use them and stick to waiting and paying for links. Oh wait a minute I think I remember reading that paid links are bad also – who knows so just keep waiting for someone to vote for your site with a link.

Ultimate Link Building Stragegy
Jason, I had commented on this post day before yesterday, but I can’t see my comments in here :-S.
Possible it was caught by the spam filter and I over looked it.
Okay nevermind Jason, seems now I can read my own comments [that does mean I am getting addicted to your blog posts so coming back again to see if my comments or questions answered].
Anyways, I just used the two tools mentioned by you selfseo and iwebtool but both seems to be using the same code to retrieve / predict new PR.
On selfseo, after pinging the service for more than 5 times, I was asked to register / sign in and the sign up page took me to iwebtool.
Also, the overall report generation look very similar to iWebtool’s report.
I had reviewed another PR prediction tool at SEO Chat, but unfortunately it never worked properly for me. That sucks! Now, I am relying on iWebtool’s prediction of PR4 from PR0.
And yes Viral tags work great, that’s why I am here through the viral tagging, or I might not be even knowing you Jason.
It seems that my predicted page rank is 3. I hope it’ll be more than that as I want to sell links. Oh well, I just have to wait and see.
Yes Selfseo & iWebtool are the same type of service I was just giving a couple of choices to choose from for the prediction. No problem being addicted to the site I would like to think that from time to time I give out some helpful info.
Great Idea, review my blog for a backlink. i think i’ll give it a try
Just send the URL to me after the review if you decide to review my site. jason@jakeldaily.com
I will try to review this blog at http://lifeiscolorful.blogspot.com and would like a linkback to lifeiscolourful.com as I gonna move my blog soon on this domain.
By the way, what all areas you expect to be covered in the review of this blog?
It’s great to have you aboard the ‘dofollow’ movement - I have link love enabled my blog from day one; it is only fair to reward those that take the time to add value to my blog.

yeah
These are really awesome tips.. especially about the do follow blogs commenting. I never even thought of that!
[…] now and get your PR5 link now before the PageRank update occurs! Almost forgot to poor to pay all $30 at once I’ll even let you pay it […]
Pagerank actually is updated all the time not once in three months or so. ToolBar Pagerank (TBPR) is. I used to think when you get a backlink from a page with TBPR 5, it’s a PR5 link. This is not true since PR value is dynamic. Which means, when you try to start a link building campaign it’d better be after the update not before. Especially when your paying for it. Correct me if I’m wrong though.
Good comment Elegant, very true!
