It often takes quite a while to be assigned a Page Rank - if at all - as it involves a lot more than just getting crawled by bots.

Your page has been cached by Google so thats a start. There is a lot you can do to increase the likelyhood of getting ranked; such as validating your code, getting textual content on the page to feed the bots, adding a Google sitemap and developing backlinks from related sites and directories.

Remember though that Page Rank is not directly related to SERP placements so concentrate on developing an interesting, content rich site first that will get good search results and a ranking will follow.

What do you mean by "validating your code?"

If you look at the source code for the page dadari.com you will see there is markup before the <html> tag, multiple closing <body> tags etc. These are errors that may have an effect on how Google would rank your page.

Have a look at the Webmaster Help Center that Google provide to gauge for yourself how important structured code is to them.

You can use the tool here to check the page.

May I ask why everyone is so worried about the PageRank but doesn't seem to be as worried about the rankings? Your toolbar PR has NO effect on your rankings. Worry about getting quality links and creating quality content to get good rankings not your PR.
Seems nobody listens to me though

If you're site is new, you page rank will not be diferent for about a month. This is called Google Sand-box effect.

So whatever you are doing, it will be noticed within a month or two.

Most advantageoust thing for Google page rank is link buildink - it is very important, that you build links only from "safe" web sites (that are not banned from Google).

You are very right there. But the biggest problem that I'm sure even you know is that 99.9999% of webamsters out there don't think the same way. I'm more then happy to exchange links with low PR sites and PR0 sites myself, and this does help as much as any other site.

The biggest reason that PR is useful is that webmasters that are scared of swaping links that will "leak" their PR out will be happy if you've got more PR. Apart from that it isn't much use.

One thing to remember from BOTH sides is tha tyou sitll need inboud links. The more inbound links the better your SERP's will be. On top of this, the more inbound links you have the higher your PR will be. Do one right, and the other one (should...) fall into place.

I totaly agree. Although I no longer exchange links. I only get one-way links but if I ever do I am more than happy to get a PR 2 link from a content page then a PR7 from a links page.
If link exchanging hadn't been so abused it might be still as relevant as it was a couple years or even months ago but Google doesn't count link exchanges as high. I do however still believe it helps especially if that is what your competition does and 99.9% of my clients competition do link exchange.
And it does greatly help MSN rankings as well.

Hello...

Here I have mentioned some steps taken by search engines to display formatted ranked page are:

-> Create an Index
-> Receive a query – a set of search terms and command.
-> Look in the index file for matches
-> Gather the matching page entries and rank them by relevance
-> Return the result page in HTML to the searcher’s web browser.

You can get this information in mind before getting about the page ranks.

Question What exactly quality links are?
Hi friends,
Sorry to raise a silly question here. But I really want to know what exactly quality links are.

I have read this forum so far and almost got very good information about SEO. I hv also got the point of Quality Links. Now just wanted to confirm whether I am getting right or wrong.

By Quality Links, Do you mean the links which are properly given within the website content or the Website Text Menu?

Suppose I have a website with 10 Links and I am displaying those links thorugh JS dropdown. Moreover I am making one Footer page which contents almost all of those links again in simple text. Is it fine as per Quality Links?

Giving link within content I am talking about Internal as well as External Links. I am not giving links to the content page at the moment. So do you mean I should give those link whenever its necessary?

Please guide me. Thanks in advance.

According to me, quality links are those links which are relevant with your site & with high PR.

To get high PR, just concentrate on your backlinks. Try to get more backlinks. To get more backlinks, submit your site in directories, update content regularly, prepare blog, & use targeted keywords. All these points will help you in getting more backlinks. When your backlinks are more then it helps in getting high PR.

I couldn't agree more with the previous comment on relevancy. If you have an incoming link from a high PR site that has nothing to do with your site theme or meta words then it does you no good.

I think that this is Google's way of discouraging indescriminate link buying.

Use a Free Pagebuilder to Point to your site
Another way of boosting page rank is to set up content-rich (not spammy) sites with pages pointing to your site. There's a great Free site builder that was just released today.

It builds awesome sites out of RSS feeds, articles and dictionary definitions, so you get totally unique content and sites that are actually readable by humans.

You only need one keyword and it builds the rest of the list and a page for each word for you.

Check it out here free site builder .

Link from some nice PR sites and you got a PR.

And PR has nothing to do with indexing. Your site can be indexed and have PR 0.
