Hello Again Arindam,
I was just noticing some of the comments here on your blog and I must agree with the ones concerning Angela and her backlinks. I joined up with her service a couple of months ago (at your suggestion) and have noticed considerable site 'exposure' and numbers ever since. Thanks to you (and Angela) for all that you do...

Dear Arindam

I subscribed to Angela's backlinks a month ago, and as I was browsing through the stuff she sent me, I discovered your Nuttiezine and this blog.
All I can say is THANK YOU! I am learning so much from you and in such a short time that my mind is spinning.
My Relax and Rejuvenate website and my blogs are benefitting from your advice and Angela's backlinks on a daily basis.
I'll be back!

Hi Arindam,

I appreciate your informational e-mails. I am in the process of building backlinks to my blog which is more of a hobby at this point than a source of income - I just enjoy the topic - so your SEO blog posts are very helpful.

I realized that an excellent content on the Internet these days means very little if you don't promote it daily till you see some steady traffic coming to your site.

Thanks again,
Lia

It's not just page rank, Arindam is writing about. It is about gaining Google trust.

I have many sites. Some of them have high PR and still no first page SERPs. I have sites that score high in results with almost no backlinks.

It's about putting up good websites with lots of good content. It's about how old your website is. It's about a slew of factors. Often it's better to turn your back on PR and just play the PPC game. Not sure yet which is more expensive.

Hi Arindam.

I like your in-your-face style. You are absolutely right about gaining Page Rank. There are lots of cookie-cutter methods, and, some do work, but, the fact remains: It's takes hard work and time to improve PR!

I have used every method in the book. I began in May 2006 with absolutely no knowledge of the Internet. Since then I have learned and applied what I learned.

I have 20 blogs today. Most are PR 1-2-or-3 from working at it daily.

There is one caveat, however. Having a top ten page rank does not mean high volumes of traffic as some people claim. Page Rank is more a function of getting backlinks, as you say. Backlinks are "votes", good or bad, that Google counts towards giving you a better or worse page rank. PR does help but it's not the end-all solution.

I would rather have 1000 targeted visitors a day with a 0 PR.

Keep up your good work!
Jim

Thanks once again Arindam. Your first 2 SEO posts came in handy at the right time and now this 'blog' article comes just 2 or so weeks after I have started my first blog (The World's eVent). I was wondering just today why I get no comments (VERY few visitors so far) and now you have answered that question for me. I will just steadily trudge along and eventually someone will post. Thanks again for all of your information and leadership!
Sincerely,
Robert (sec)
