Tip to get back Page Rank
Thursday, March 6th, 2008BerryBlitz asked how to get back his PR2 (his blog now has PR0). Apparently, he is one of the millions affected by the PR sweep as punishment by Google on paid links.
Well, here’s a tip for those who were affected by PR drop:
I was Stumbling a while ago when I found this timely and interesting post from Yaro Starak of Entrepreneurs Journey, one of the successful netrepreneurs and probloggers, on how he has managed to get his page rank back to 6. When the big sweep happened, his blog went down to 3 from his original PR6.
Good for him he has now managed to get back his page rank. He added no follow to all paid links in his blog, then submitted a review request with Google at their Webmaster Tools then patiently waited for Google to give him his original PR. According to him, “Google simply doesn’t tell you whether you have successfully adhered to their requests or you still need to do more to have the penalty removed.”
I was also affected by this PR drop so I might also need to do some cleaning up. Right now, I am making every effort to get my PR back to 4:
1. I removed my LinkWorth Linkads script.
2. I removed my TLA plugin.
3. I am posting more regularly to get more traffic and subscribers.
4. I am exchanging links with relevant blogs.
5. I will also be putting nofollow in all the paid links in this blog. I was a member of BlogToProfit previously but fortunately I backed out because I couldn’t keep up with the deadlines.
