    Hi,

    thanks for sharing these tips. I have worked a bit over a month in getting backlinks to my site and my PR went from 3 to 4. I hope it was cause of my effort and all, but not 100% sure.

    Daily content can help, but only if it is king content as some call it. It would not help if you posted rubbish everyday.

    I do my best to include alt tags on my images and links, post tags and descriptions. I have actually never paid for PPC and somewhat maybe will never, I just find it strange to do so. I think it’s probably just me or maybe there are others.
