I dont know to what extent it affects where your page comes up in the listing for a given search term. I imagine google keeps that info pretty well guarded, although there are probably websites devoted to figuring out google's algorithms for the shear sport of doing it.
PR matters mostly here because unless you have X amount of PR, a lot of link lists wont bother even looking at anything you submit to them. One of the reasons I think highly of Greenie (  LULZ) is because he doesnt seem to do that, and gives everyone a chance depending on the quality of free-sites they build and submit. That is rare in this business today. He isnt the only one, but he's one of the few big dogs that seems to not have forgotten who and what helped him get where he is today.
My advice regarding PR - build lots of your own domains and get lots of inbound links from free-site lists like GG and TGP galleries like PK. Link to your own sites, but dont overdo it.
I havent tried it yet because I've been too busy, but you might look around for link dumps and slow moving futabas that don't have "nofollow" in there page source and post a few links to your sites there. Also, hard link trades with other sites. Don't expect GG to give you a front page hardlink, but you can find other beginners with PR0-1 that will.
And dont fuck people by taking down their link after they put up yours. In general, dont fuck people at all. |
What the hell are you talking about? A lot of what you say here Nate is utter bullshit. You kind of ramble on like you don't have a clue as to what PR is about or where and how to get it. The only worthwhile thing you said is that you need more incoming links to gain PR. And thats only the half of it. It has to be quality links - not those from Link Dumps - that's where PR goes to die.
As far as Link Lists not accepting low PR sites, I have no idea where that came from other than in regards to Blog Submits at some larger LL's - they require a PR1 to list the blog due to so many splogs being submitted.
If you don't know a definitive answer to help the girl out, I'd keep my fingers to myself. the link above to:
