My blog Netmediablog is a PR 2 blog while i have some inner pages with PR 7, PR 5, PR 4 etc, if backlinks are the reason for page ranks why do my front page with more backlinks than any inner page still have PR 2 while some inner pages have higher page ranks?

What can i do to grow my first page's PR ?

    Well its not about quantity of links, its about the PR of the pages linking to it and the no. of outbound links in those pages.

    That slide out in the lower/right corner covers an Adsense Ad in the right sidebar, might want to read the Adsense TOS about covering up Adsense Ads.

      There is no adsense ads at the bottom right hand corner and the slide out comes out at 70% scroll down, so you must have passed the adsense before the slide out comes out, and how does that affect my index page ranking?

        Whatever. I know what Adsense is & I know it was being covered by that lower/right slideout on your torrent article page.

        Good luck.

    I think you are wrong. I can't believe that one of your internal pages has PR7 and your home page is PR2. Its possible to have internal pages with higher pageranks, but if your internal page is PR7, your home page should be PR4+

    Your inner pages have higher page ranks because the page rank of the sites linking back to your inner pages are higher than the page rank of the sites linking back to your homepage. To increase the PR of your homepage, you must get backlinks (linking directly to your homepage) from sites with a high PR (preferably 6 or higher).

    Can you give an example of any of your inner pages greater than PR2?

    Anyway, PR is not all about number of backlinks, it's about the quality of them.

    You can link your inner page to the home page and put no follows on all out bound back links.

    It's possible your post was mentioned by another authority site.

    There are also a lot of PR 4, PR 5 posts on the blog so its hard to understand how the index page will still be PR 2, i am certain i have better and even more backlinks for the index page more than any other page.

    Hi,
    Your PR is your Page!
    Not your domain.
    So, your index page is PR2, another page PR5,6,7 . This means :
    Your content on another page is expressive, traffic more, than your index page.
    Google believes that another page is valuable.

      @Martinsee on what matrics exactly do search engines determine that? I've always believed its all about backlinks.

    Sometimes your index page contains static contents,. If it's a blog, the content on index page is often not full.
    Another page show the full contents and it has keywords, link, information.
    With my bad English, i can't explain all i know. sorry.

    Yep, backlinks are all about. But if you try to build backlink FOCUS to your ANOTHER page with exactly keywords, not Index page. I Believe that your SE increases better than INdexpage.

    Its understandable....guess building inner page backlinks and helping inner pages rank on Search engine will give my blog even more search engine exposure.

    And building links on only home page would penalize, it may be the one reason.

    I've never even heard of that big of a difference from inner to home page

    I am hoping by the next update Google will rightfully rank my index page properly because it hard to believe i could have such inner page ranks and still rank PR2 on home page.
