Browsing through Yahoo! Once I came to know that people highly search for Search engine optimization , better PageRank in Google etc. Infact I too was one of them , I would like to state some common tips I came across for increasing page rank and better listing in Search Engines.
Linking
It`s where your site`s existense is , if you make a page and tell a friend or 2 nothing happens no one will know about your site.Get links to your site from wherever possible, if you have 5 links to your site not only people will come to you from 5 locations , you are making it known to search engine`s as it crawls to your site 5 different locations and you`re indirectly increasing your google pagerank too.
PR distribution can be blocked by adding rel=�nofollow� in the url tag.
Sitemap
Using sitemap is a great way to get users what they want , If a visitor is lost he can easily find out the way using a sitemap. It`s like the “You Are Here� boards at parks etc. Usually website`s using flash as thier menu`s and links should use this as this is the only alternative to get linked for search engine bots. But make sure to make the sitemap short, as search engines may not crawl the high size files for too long that is just few links get crawled. If you’re still concerned about your page’s file size, maybe you should look into converting your site’s code to XHTML/CSS, which has been known to reduce file sizes by up to 60%.
Rich Content
The more the content , more will be the people coming to your site .Suppose a person searches for keyword “Hosting� , and one of your site`s page have the word “Hosting� then your site page gets listed in the search . now if you update content of your site according to the need of the users obviously your page will get more hits . Getting hits nditerectly means that u make money `cause as many people browse through ads to ads .Offer as much as you can to your visitors, this is the only way you can make your visitor come again & again, If you`re site is a mobile information site give the user some free tone`s and mobile software and make a promise to add more later .
Google PageRank
Better Pagerank means better Hits ,
* Although People go mad for pagerank , You will never know what your true PR is. The toolbar PR is highly inaccurate and is not updated for months , you get different pagerank on different PG checking site`s for the same URL .
* PR is not related to how high your site will rank. Rather, a higher PR will cause Googlebot to dig deeper when deep crawling your site. it is good to have high PR but you don`t have to run for it.
* The best way for a page to achieve high PR is to get linked from high pagerank site`s and forums. Spamming on forum helps a lot , LOL
