What is PageRank

PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual pages value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B. But, Google looks at more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives; it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves ˜important weigh more heavily and help to make other pages ˜important.

What are backlinks?

In simple terms, search engines consider each backlink a ˜vote for your site. It is a way for Google to determine the overall authority and popularity of your site. This is all you have to do to build authority for your blog. Ideally you should have about 1,000 backlinks in Google, however, be careful not to build these links too fast (100 links/week is acceptable).

Mary... The only track we have with Google is of course the advantage of having very unique names. If our names weren't unique we would have to pay you the big bucks to make it happen for us :) On another note...Please tell me you don't have that tattoo :) TLW...ROAR!

I would love to think I could win this! So my "guess" would be.... June 2nd. Why June 2nd? Well, it's National Leave the Office Early Day, National "Bubba" Day and National "Yell 'FUDGE' at the Cobras in North America Day." (no kidding!) I have no clue.

Another great post and training tool my the QUEEN MS MARY I will turn of the TV and have to sit down and study all this great info

Mary, I wish I could guess the date. I am still trying to figure why I'm falling in the page rankings.

What a creative pic, ha! Well I have guessed a date, now just have to wait and see!

I think a little birdie suggested not too long ago when this should happen. I'm guessing May 28...at least I'm working on backlinks as if it is May 28th.

I think it just happened today. I'm so happy my blog went from 3 to 4 and one of my websites that was a 2 is now a 3. My activerain profile and blog are both 3's. At one time I think my profile was a 4 so I guess I got demoted.

Thanks Mary, I don't always comment but I've been following your great tips.

Hi Mary - I must admit I'm more than a bit overwhelmed when I read what you do and know. I've spent a lot of time learning and implementing how to have a successful website, but it never seems to be enough. Blogging is fairly new to me, but I recognize the importance of having a blog and ActiveRain has provided an easy platform for getting started. Sometimes it's good, like when I'm on page 1 for a search term and also have 3 other references on the same page because of AR. I'm totally organic which is just another term for "home-made" and always feel like it's hit or miss. There's so much information out there, it's simply impossible to take it all in even when I put in 12 hour days (too many of them). I like the way you present your information and maybe, if I go about this systematically, I can fill in some missing links (no pun intended :-) and feel somewhat more confident entering the next level. Thank you for all you do! Should you find yourself near Titusville, please feel free to call.

No idea, I'm still looking at the picture that you posted, and can't think about anything else.

Lots of good information... Thanks for sharing. Lu

Mary, not only are you the most GORGEOUS female on AR, but your blogs are packed to the brim with such useful information. I've been reading a lot of your blogs, and I don't think I've expressed the gratitude yet. Thank you! Keep up the great work, including the weight training to Christian women!

I'm a long time subscriber to your blogs.
