I may be interested in that trade depending on the following:

1. No BlackHat Advertisements

Google will penalize for unlawful selling or buying links. Another blackhat ad trick is selling your posts on your blog for profit or Pay Per Post. If you are going to do these ads on your site, use the ?no-follow? code rel=nofollow. This will allow Google to not track that you are following these ads or links. I would suggest even using it on all your 125×125 Block ads.



2. Use Do-Follow Forums utilizing forum signatures

Forums are great resources for hidden promotion gems. You can create a signature that displays your website/blog on ever comment you make in the forum. I was commenting on forums that were in my niche ?Social Media? like



* SitePoint forums, DigitalPoint forums and Warrior forums



You can use a do-follow search engine like DoFollow Forums to determine if the forum will give you PageRank juice with your signature links. It won?t make any sense to start commenting like crazy expecting results if the forum is a no-follow forum.

3. Comment on Do-Follow blogs

Just like with forums, search and find Do-Follow blogs to comment on. A good way to see if they follow a do-follow rule is look the blogger?s comments page and notice where the user will leave a website in the comment field, do a right click ?> view source to look at the code to find the website of that commenter and if you see a no-follow code right next to the commenters website then that blog is a no-follow blog.

There are many search engines out there that you can Google Do-Follow search. I have found that commenting on the Do-Follow blogs has also upped my community experience too in getting to know my blogger niche community.

4. Comment on Commentluv blogs

You may noticed my blog is commentluv enabled which allows my commenters a display of the last blog post they wrote if they opted to display their website link. This is a great link love where you can gain great authority and new readers with commentluv.

5. Find blogs with top commenter widgets

I have also found that finding blogs that display the Top Commenter widgets that show the top 5 or 10 commenters on the sidebar is another way to gain PR link juice. Since this will be static in showcasing your site, the main website is giving your site a major boost in back-link juice. I have found that major websites with high PR is very beneficial to get on the top commenter list even though it may be difficult to achieve.

6. Submit site to directories

First rule is to develop content first within your website . I wrote a good 10 articles before I started submitting to all the major blog and website directories out there. It may be tedious but its worth it.

7. Use social bookmarking

Social Bookmarking sites have really helped me with SERP and Google organic search results. Use Social Bookmarking tools to get your blog indexed fast and start gaining authority in the Social Media world.

So even though you may hate PageRank and don?t think its worth it. I highly suggest that you may reconsider and hopefully these tips/guidelines may help on your next PageRank update. It?s only 2-3 month intervals so if you were disappointed on the last update, hold your head up and make a major bounce back.
