Quote:1. Build Your Links
By acquiring a handful of links from high PageRank-endowed relevant sites, you will automatically enhance your sites worthiness in the eyes of the search engines. (PageRank is, on a logarithmic scale of 0 to 10, Googles importance score.) In my experience, a single link from a PageRank 8 homepage has significantly boosted rankings within several weeks. It's also worthwhile giving attention to existing inbound links where the anchor text is less than ideal (e.g. "click here" or "visit site"). If you can influence the text used in links by bloggers and business partners alike, you will profit in terms of additional rankings and traffic. Dont forget to build your links slowly or you may raise red flags with Google and Yahoo!
