My Google PageRank Increases to PR5

By Jian Shuo Wang on 2002-11-28 23:39 · Internet

When I started my website one year ago, I only have www.wangjianshuo.com and some very simple page. I don’t remember the PR value of that site since I didn’t know about this magic word.

Later, I found it is ranked PR4. I love this number very much since most of the sites are PR3 or PR4. Some of them are very large sites.

These days, I found the PR for both of my Personal site and blog site reach PR5.

This is very encouraging news

Why? Since I get listed higher in the result of Google search engine. Sometimes I don’t know why, but my sites are among the top 10 for certain keyword. Sometimes, it even appears as No. 1 site.

Interesting results

“Net send spam” - it returns my blog entry of “Net Send” - Yet Another Type of Spam as the top result record - sometimes as the second one.

“Pu Dong Airport” - the first three entries comes from my site.

“Hai Nan” - also brings a lot of visitors.

It is interesting.

Why this will happen

I believe it is due to two factors:

My friends are linking to me. Raymond, Christina, cnblog.org and Patrick’s site helped to increase my PageRank. Thanks. I will link back in a special section.
Two sites interlinking each other. I didn’t realized it before but I found home.wangjianshuo.com provides 80+ links to www.wangjianshuo.com and receives 100+ links from it. This may also cause the upgrade of PageRank for both sites.

The easiest way is to download Google Toolbar. After you install the toolbar, visit your website and your PageRank will be displayed as a small green bar on the toolbar. Move your mouse over the small green bar (marked as PageRank) and the numeric value (0-10) will be displayed as tool tip.

I'm glad your sites are growing. Why dont' you go into SEO??

— John Foster · 2003-12-10 02:52

Increasing pagerank is a hard thing to do. Still working on it myself. It's not possible to "trick" google into ranking your site high like webmasters could do to other search engines. That's why google was so popular.

How can I find out my PR without having to download the google bar?

— Darin Cawthon · 2004-03-12 03:25

Hi, right now I'm doing some research on Internet marketing, page ranking and stuff like that. Do you know where to find a tool which can tell me where my website is placed (in google) when a specific keyword is entered by the users.

— Cedric · 2004-06-11 05:59

Hi Cedric,

The is a very good tool that does exactly what you want, it's called "Free Monitor for Google" and it's freeware !

You can download it here: http://www.cleverstat.com/google-monitor-query.htm

I often use myself to measure the two websites i developped (http://www.agencearagon.com and http://www.alexandra-lloyd.com)

Cheers,

Fred

How do you explain a page rank of five on our site, http://www.freespaces.com/? We have almost no incoming links but got a page rank of 5 immediately? Any ideas?

— Tom A · 2004-08-05 01:33

For sure the reason is because this link is part of the google directory (dmoz.org project).

For example, the url http://www.alexandra-lloyd.com is PR4 and has exactly the same number of links (i.e. 3).

— Frédéric M · 2004-10-09 09:19

What do you suggest I do to get more traffic to my site, http://www.savingmybills.com/?

Very interesting site. How do you get your page rank up? I have my own site and recently added a Dish network site. I was introduced to the homeschool blog and found that my daughter is real good with the blog. Her secret is lots of friends and posting comments frequently.

Perhaps you could link to my site and improve your ranking too.

— Charles Anderson · 2006-06-13 07:35

I think it is mainly Raymond who brings you this PR. Two sites interlink each other - it appears that google do not count these links as many.

By the way, you have few links from http://travel.yahoo.com as well.

— Michael Hosting · 2006-06-30 02:26

You are right. My web site pr incresed to 3.

— Sara · 2006-08-08 03:13

I had heared a PageRank algorithm like this:

PR(A) = (1-d) + d (PR(T1)/C(T1) + ... + PR(Tn)/C(Tn)) is it true? The number of outgoing links on the page which points at your page has any role in your PR?

— Kenneth · 2006-08-08 03:23

Very interesting! but i am confused about search engines pageranking matter.

Uh, I have been studying the PR for a certain time, and as so much talks about it, from different "professions", I get confused.

I operate an online website that sells philippine calling cards. Does posting at blogging sites such as yours, increase my website ranking? What does the no follow inserted after my url in the post do? <a href="http://www.hellocallingcards.com/?"

Hi there, I run a relatively successful clothing site at www.heavenwear.co.uk

Does linking to lower PR 0-1 have an adverse effect on my pagerank or will it have no effect at all ?

Thanks in advance.

Is all search engines using this algoritm.

— steven · 2006-10-04 10:44

Hm, PR5 is gr8! I'm trying to get such PR for about 6 months, but still no success:(. Firstly, my site got PR4 from PR0 due to dmoz listings and some other links like wikipedia and so on. However, PR4 means tons of visitors and probably the most important thing is the pagerank value on other pages than homepage.

Hi everyone,

I have just started trying to increase my P.R ranking currently it's at 0, if anyone can give advice on what I can do it would be helpfull, here is my site http://www.personaliseyourgift.com What I was wondering is how do you get a listing on DMOZ as I heard unless you bribe an editor it's not possible?

— Chris smith · 2006-10-24 20:43

I update the template of this site(cromosoft.com) severals times per year(2,3 times), the PR is 4, but few days ago i found a lost page(with FAQs) of my site with PR5? this page isn't linked from the index,the content is old (one year or more)

Perhaps to increase PR i should avoid of changing templates and links very often, some ideas?

isn't usual to have a site with PR4 and a page with Pr5

Hello people specially Jiam,

In the years 2005 and 2006, i wrote comments in this same page, about one of mi sites, in the year 2006 mi PR was 4 with 92 inbound links, now i only have 20 !, but the PR increases to 5, who understands to google?

I have other sites but at the beginning these had PR 3 or 4 now because Google thinks that there is no important content inside them and the PR is between 1 and 3. :=(

Can any one tell me whats the maximum page ranking i can ever have?

— ebin varghese · 2007-02-15 17:08

I think there is too much emphasis on PR these days. There are many sites that rank high that only have a PR 4 o 5.

In a previous post(year 2005) i was worried because a page rank of 3,, In the last days, months mi PR was 5, but now today i discovered that is 0!. Mi site cromosoft.com isn't banned but what i'am doing wrong?

Mi links decreased from 100 to 13, it is terrible.!

— keylogger · 2007-04-27 14:07

My website droped from a pagerank of 5 to a four in one month. I did not make any changes the the website. How would this happen. I have tried to submit my site to the DMOZ. However, in my catagorie I have not seen a single site added in the last two years.

— Donald Abrams · 2007-05-09 13:05

I have had the identical situation happen to my website. It has droped from a PR rank of 5 to a current PR rank of 4 in one month without making any changes to my site outher than adding more content.

In addition I have been waiting for DMOZ to review my website and have also noticed that they have not added a single site in several catagories I have been watching for over a year now.

— Kathleen Criddle · 2007-05-20 08:42

The best bet donald is to sign up to be an editor of DMOZ.

PR is a dying breed. Whats matter is where in the search engine result your webpage is placed for a certain keyword.

Hi Jian Shuo - by the way, this site is now PR of 6 in case you were not aware.

I'm interested if after you blog, you ping? I understand that 'blog and ping' is a sure fire way to increase unique readers and therefore potentially more one way links.

— AussiePB · 2008-05-14 12:24

Hi Jian Shuo - not sure if u are aware, but you can now add html code to your FB profile... so what I did, was used my feedburner RSS feed to create a 'headline animator' and then copy and pasted the code into the html code application... so now I have a button on my FB profile that displays the latest blog post from my feed, and if users click on it, they can subscribe to my feeds... pretty neat in case you are interested.... :D
