Make sure when you are placing links first make up good anchor texts with your keywords in it.
Or not, a tonne of incoming links with exact match keywords might raise a few flags. Natural links tend to have brand names, web addresses, etc... in them, and generic things like "click here".
I'm not saying it's not a relevance signal but it's certainly a lot less of one than it was. By all means get a few exact matches, partial and phrase matches but I'd mostly go for the relevance through the site/page content and the fact that it's relevant, trusted sites/pages that are linking in... and not so much concern with the anchor text.

Hey...
First off all i wanna say dont get to hangup about pagerank. I have a site where i only put some links in high pagerank sites of my own in the footer and some blog comments and it already has pagerank 4 .
I just started this site and it does not get much traffic because the links are with an anchor text wich is not generating much traffic. So the pagerank 4 is nice to see but does not bring me traffic.
So if you want to get an higher pagerank just get some good links from good sites and you will get your pagerank. However it think you want your site to generate more traffic and therefore have higher ranking with your keywords. Make sure when you are placing links first make up good anchor texts with your keywords in it.
Your pagerank will not change right away because you need to wait for the new google pagerank update wich will take a few months i think because i think they updated it not to long ago.

As far as I can see the PA for your page is 21, and your DA is 10.
The SEOmoz toolbar tells me that you do not have that many external pages linking to your site, which is a good way for increasing page rank (and also traffic). So that could be a suggestion. Put some effort into getting external pages to link to your site, perhaps having some link exchange with other relevant sites?
Also your page does not have any meta description. You should definately add this. And also, you should consider changing your page title to a more descriptive title.
"HomeEscapade Articles, Reviews and Opinions" should perhaps be more focused on the keywords you wish to be found on, and have the company name as the last word in the title. The most important keywords should be mentioned at the front of the string.
The homepage has no
tag, which is also recommendable. You can have a headline containing important words for the site.
Hope this can help you a bit!

Hi Michael
Assuming this is Google PageRank that you're referring to, I'd suggest not paying much attention to it.
This is because it's only updated usually 3 or 4 times per year and is the public PageRank that Google occasionally publish, not Google's up-to-date internal PageRank for websites.
- There are alternatives that are more significant and meaningful, such as SEOmoz's Domain Authority, Page Authority, MozRank and MozTrust.
A really useful resource on SEO Ranking Factors is "The Periodic Table of SEO Ranking Factors" over on Search Engine Land.
Also, check out the "2011 SEO Ranking Factors" here on SEOmoz.
Making use of the SEOmoz Pro Tools to help with ideas and strategy to increase your website's authority signals will be far more beneficial than focusing on PageRank.
Hope that helps,
Regards
Simon

Practical steps to increase Domain Authority
Having read the Neil Patel's guide to DA, I am still at a loss as to practical steps, I can do to help improve my Domain Authority. This is a summary of findings / action plan so far: 1. Building quality incoming links by producing excellent content that people will love! 2. Having "related articles" to keep users on site for longer, and provide more information I am certain I am missing some more steps? More worryingly my DA has gone down from 8 to 5! I do not know how to improve it? Please help with real practical steps that I can use.

Wondering why PR hasn't increased?
Hi there, I’ve been working on a website for about 6 months now and the page rank still remains at 0 - Google Page Rank. Fresh content has been created across the majority of the site, blog implemented, titles and meta’s, schema.org, we've built some good links etc. There are a lot of 404’errors but a lot of this is to do with stocking issues, products being sold/taken down and new products being put up. Do you think this is the major reason the page rank is not moving – but 404’s are a regular occurrence on a lot of E-Commerce sites. Also, the server went off line on two occasions(obviously Google frowns upon this) but in general server is grand. Also when we started working on the website it wasn't in the best of shape DA: 11, now it's DA:17. I know still not great but moving in the right direction. Just wondering yer thoughts on the PR?

By giving link do we lose our PageRank?
Hi moz fans,
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | atakala
I'm asking this question because I've faced this (http://thatsit.com.au/seo/tutorials/a-simple-explanation-of-pagerank)
Till now I know that when we link to a page we **don't **lose our PageRank, we just give a PageRank but not to lose it .
I mean let's say If we have a page PR 1, and another page B which is pagerank 0,
And If we give link a to page B from page A, At the end of the iteration, we have Page A PR 1 and Page B PR 0,85.
**But **he said above the link If we give a link to a page, it would result like this.
Page A PR 0,15 and Page B PR 0,85. Which one is true ?
Thank you!0 -
Does google can read the content of one Iframe and use it for the pagerank?
Beginners doubt: When one website has its content inside Iframe's, google will read it and consider for the pagerank?

Controlling PageRank vs flat site architecture
Hey all. Here's the scenario. I have this pretty trusted site with a relatively high PR. The navigation menu has around 300 links. But this is because it is a CSS menu that drills down into subcategories. Now, would restricting the amount of links in this menu be beneficial? I am not worried about any subcategory pages not being crawled or indexed, but I am concerned that subcategory pages will not receive as high of PageRank if they are not linked to directly from the home page, thereby lowering the ranking potential. Even with new pages that are created they receive a PR of 5 if linked to from the home page. But I'm also thinking that toning down the menu size would be beneficial by funneling more PageRank to category pages and increasing the likelihood of ranking for some core head/middle terms. I have seen sites that externalize the menu in JavaScript files and disallow it in Robots.txt to prevent too much PageRank from linking out, but SEO isn't really a one-solution-fits-all in my experience. I may try a test. Externalizing the menu may also increase the relevance for pages because I won't have a bunch of other content on the page not relevant to that page's specific keywords. Anyone with experience in this arena? I would love to hear your input. Thanks
