Question by muaazab: How to increase page rank in google?
Does the back links of sites with different contents increase page rank? If my site is on topic of “website Designing” and i get links of different sites with different topics e.g “Online Money Making”, “pharmaceuticals” , “textiles” etc, will it increase the page rank of my site?
Or should i get targeted back links for this purpose (Only back links with web designing websites?
Any help in this matter will be highly appreciated.
Please tell me if you need more details.
Thanks in advance.

You can use SEO tools like keyword analyzer, Meta Data, tagging etc which emensely increases the page ranking.
Create Unique keywords, and ensure that you do not repeat the words too many times just to increase the keyword nos. SE robots n spiders consider it equalent to spamming.
best way is to get your website reffered by websites which have good page ranking. Robots then assume that your website is also good, as the same have been reffered by reputed websites
if your using Firefox, you will get many SEO tools as addons, which can be used for instant analysis of yours and other pages. If you are not using firefox, then switch to it:))

Google figures that when one page links to another page, it is effectively casting a vote for the other page. The more votes that are cast for a page, the more important the page must be. Also, the importance of the page that is casting the vote determines how important the vote itself is. Google calculates a page’s importance from the votes cast for it. How important each vote is is taken into account when a page’s PageRank is calculated.
So, it sounds like it doesn’t matter the topics of the linked pages, just how ‘popular’ the linked pages are (defined as how many other pages they are linked to and their links are linked to).
I hope that helps.
muaazab you ask “If my site is on topic of “website Designing” and i get links of different sites with different topics e.g “Online Money Making”, “pharmaceuticals” , “textiles” etc, will it increase the page rank of my site?
The answer is yes but by so little it is not worth doing.
The fact is that a thousand links like those will not be as beneficial as one high quality link from an authority site.
Look with Yahoo Site Explorer who links to your direct competitors that are high in the SERPs. Then try to get a link from the same source.
Hope that helps.
For the most part I agree with the 3 previous answers that you already received, and they are all included in my answer. I do agree that linking to relevant sites will give you better ranking than linking to non-relevant sites. Getting good high ranking relevant sites to link to can be tricky but with a little initiative it can be done. I posted an article on one of my article websites that will give you some tips on getting higher page ranking. Sorry, but it is a little lengthy but well worth the read.
The methods employed to increase your search engine rankings may seem like rocket science to you, so you have probably avoided dealing with this issue. A high search engine ranking for your website is so essential that if you have the slightest desire to actually succeed in your business, there is no way you can continue to avoid this issue.
At least 85% of people looking for goods and services on the Internet find websites through search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and MSN. The idea of optimizing your pages for high search engine rankings is to attract targeted customers to your site who will be more than likely to make a purchase. The higher your page comes up in search engine results, the greater the traffic that is directed to your website. That’s what search engine optimization is about.
You can immerse yourself in all the technical information available online to figure out how to optimize your web pages to achieve higher rankings. Or you can look at a few simple items on your pages, make some small adjustments, and most likely see improved rankings quite rapidly. The first item you should examine is the title bar on your homepage.
The title bar is the colored bar at the top of the page. Look at the words that appear there when you access your home page. To increase search engine rankings, the words on your homepage’s title bar should include the most important keywords or phrases, one of which would include your company name.
Then click on all your links and examine the title bars on the pages you access. Each title bar on every single page of your site should contain the most important keywords and phrases taken from the page itself. However, avoid very long strings of keywords, keeping them to six words or less. Avoid repeating keywords more than once in the title bars, and make sure that identical words are not next to each other.
The next item to put under your microscope is your website content. Search engines generally list sites that contain quality content rather than scintillating graphics. The text on your site must contain the most important keywords – the words that potential customers will be typing into search engines to find your site.
Aim to have around 250 words on each page, but if this is not desirable due to your design, aim for at least 100 carefully chosen words. If you want to achieve a high ranking on search engines, this text is essential. However, the search engines must be able to read the text, meaning that the text must be in HTML and not graphic format.
To find out if your text is in HTML format, take your cursor and try to highlight a word or two. If you are able to do this, the text is HTML. If the text will not highlight, it is probably in graphic form. In this case, ask your webmaster to change the text into HTML format in order to increase your search engine rankings.
Next we come to what is called meta tags. I know this sounds like something out of science fiction, but it is really just simple code. Many people believe that meta tags are the key to high search engine rankings, but in reality, they only have a limited effect. Still, it’s worth adding them in the event that a search engine will use meta tags in their ranking formula.
To find out if your page is set up with meta tags, you must access the code. To do this, click the “view” button on the browser menu bar, and select “source.” This will pull up a window revealing the underlying code that created the page. If there are meta tags, they usually appear near the top of the window. For example, a meta tag would read: meta name=”keywords” content=. If you do not find code that reads like this, ask your webmaster to put them in. This may not do much for your search engine rankings, but any little boost helps.
Lastly, we come to the issue of link popularity. This is a factor that is extremely important in terms of search engine rankings. Almost all search engines use link popularity to rank your website. Link popularity is based on the quality of the sites you have linked to from your links page.
If you type in “free link popularity check” in a popular search engine, the search engine will then show you what sites are linked to your site. In the case that there aren’t many sites linked up to yours, or that the sites that are linked up have low search engine rankings, consider launching a link popularity campaign. Essentially, this entails contacting quality sites and requesting that they exchange links with your site. Of course, this requires checking out the rankings of the websites you want to link up with. Linking to popular, quality sites not only boosts your search engine ranking, but it also directs more quality traffic to your website.
Search engine rankings are extremely important for a successful Internet marketing campaign. Before you go out and hire a search engine optimization company, try taking some of the simple steps listed above, and see if you can’t boost your rankings yourself. Don’t ever ignore this all-important factor in Internet marketing. Remember, the higher your search engine ranking, the more quality customers will be directed your way.
Good Luck!
