Trying to increase my pagerank

[gregdavidson]

I'm trying to increase my pagerank for the two websites in my signature but I don't seem to be doing too well. I recently started distributing an article around to various article directories and just hired somebody to submit my site to 500 free web directories. What else can I do to help out my PR? If I can achieve a PR of 3 I should be able to find relevant websites to mine who are willing to trade links. Unfortunately nobody seems to want to trade links with me now because I don't have PR.

PR updates approximately every quarter, assuming you have relevant high quality links pointing to your website, achieving a PR3 is not hard.

You just need patience

Articles are your best bet, and aslo social bookmarking.

Search engines search crawl your website to see if you have anyone valuable linking to your website, usually other websites with pr higher than 3. If you use social bookmarking, you can have sites with a pr 4-5+ linking to your website. This won't get you onto the first page of google alone, but it can help.

Flooding the market with your articles is the best way to get tons of people to your website for a lifetime. Just keep writing articles. You'll start seeing huge traffic after you write about 250. It's a lot, but it's well worth it.

There is an ebook going around that is stating certain myths with search engines called Search Engine Myths Exposed, and I think that you should read it. You can get it for free at this link: Search Engine Myths Exposed!
