I just found this post from eches blog. Adding your blog to online directories would be a great idea to increase your blogs exposure to the web. By this people would see that your blog is existing with this type of topic and can visit your blog. This would help add back links to your blog.

SEO friendly directory does not:

• Use Redirects
• Use no index, no follow tags
• Have too many links on one page
• Prevent directory pages with robots.txt
• Put listings too deep for a single category

Ever wondered how or where to check your google page rank or the commonly use word which is PR?

According to wikipedia.

“PageRank is a link analysis algorithm that assigns a numerical weighting to each element of a hyperlinked set of documents, such as the World Wide Web, with the purpose of “measuring” its relative importance within the set. The algorithm may be applied to any collection of entities with reciprocal quotations and references. The numerical weight that it assigns to any given element E is also called the PageRank of E and denoted by PR(E).”

To simply check your page rank you can visit this page.

1. prchecker
2. pr.blogflux

Sometimes this two page rank checker display different results. But I trust prchecker better since its the first link that comes out of google when you search page rank.
