Free PageRank backlinks through MyBlogLog

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

This is one thing i noticed today, MyBlogLog account subpages are getting quite a bit of a PageRank boost. I’m not the biggest MyBlogLog user, i just visit people that visit serverdome, but today while going through the option pages i noticed that the serverdome.org entry page has a PageRank of 1.

Now you’re probably thinking that’s not such an amazing thing and PR1 backlinks are a dime a dozen, but let’s compare a few things for a second. My own page which is a month old is at PR1, whle at the same time Stephan Miller’s page has a PageRank 4 profile. Stephan is about a hundred times more active on the service than i am. After a while, all those links from communities he joined and widget views start to add up, giving a PR boost to the entry page. Adding all your blogs to your page will help pass PR juice to every site linked from there.

For comparison, this blog’s page on BlogCatalog has a PR3. Too bad that the actual link from the subpage is coded in javascript and will not pass PageRank juice from BlogCatalog to blogs.

MyBlogLog observations

1. Whether links from widget views on blogs pass juice to your MyBlogLog page is debatable. The widget displays data through some funky javascript so i don’t think they do.
2. The blog link from the profile page seems to pass PR juice to your page, if you have more blogs, add them there.
3. You can’t use html on your profile description. (I was going to be evil and link to some serverdome articles there with good keywords, my brilliant plan ruined!)
4. Links from other users messaging you on the sidebar are NoFollow-ed, no sneaky spamming that way.

    The community page would pass PR.

    All I really do there is sign up for 15 communities a day. Communities that I would subscribe to anyway which is one of the reasons I have 700 feeds in my reader now. There is so much good stuff at so many blogs. Having that many feeds lets me spread my commenting out.
    And use tags religiously. For yourself, for your sites, for other users, and for their sites. Each one of these brings links pointing to your profile and/or sites.
    Some tricks. Sign up for sites that just show up. Only 21 profiles get links back from the main page of another community. If you are not in the 21, tag it. A tag links back to your profile as the tagger from their main page.
    And that’s basically what I do there. Hopefully that helps. The messaging system is to impersonal for me, so I don’t use it much there.
    Thanks for the mention.
