Tips to help you increase your pagerank

 What is pagerank?  Google uses pagerank to determine the importance of a web page and also how it is used to determine which page appears in search results. Pagerank is an algorithm used by Google to determine the importance of a web page by the number of links (back-links) it has.  If a web page has so many links pointing to it that means its content is of great importance to so many people.  So when someone searches for a keyword, Google uses the pagerank to determine the web pages to show in the search result. So Google uses numerical values between 0 to 10 to rank web pages according to its importance.
