Default Google Page Rank

People often ask me how to improve their website page ranks - for those that don't know what it is, there's a very brief summary here.

To be honest, I don't know how to manipulate Google (and wouldn't want to get caught trying) and always tell people to just build a clean site with good content and then it should do okay.

Well, I've just noticed that the North West Carp homepage is already a staggering 4/10 page rank. I've known sites that have been around for years that struggle to get above 3/10! Considering that domain was only registered a few weeks ago and the skeleton of this site was thrown together in an afternoon, I think it proves that Julian and co are going the right way with regards to the layout and content.

Nice work. Keep it up.

I'll take my anorak off now

I went to a Chamber of Commerce type freebie presentation on search engine optimisation a few weeks a go which, for the part I managed to remain awake, was reasonably informative.

Like Elton says, don't try to manpulate the search engines or you'll just get black listed. One thing they did mention was the use of reciprical (sp?) links which don't necessarily have to be clicked very often (or visible) but in your source code to get picked up by the 'spiders' when they visit and boost your ranking... or something!

Shortly after that I drifted off!

Yeah, in all honesty same here.

Although it had the same effect on my boss when I got back to the office!

Boss: So was it worth taking a day out of the office?
Me: Yes, did you know... ... spout, spout... reciprical links... spout blah blah...
Boss: Er... no... so you learnt a lot then, very worth while?
Me: Absolutely!

Sorry chaps, the photo HAD to go. I think it was having some subconcious effect on me, as I got ready for work on Friday I found myself thinking 'Hmm... how should I style my hair today?' and I started to think maybe I should give it a go

Very disturbing.

It will do eventually. It takes a while for the 'deeper' pages to get ranked.
