Hunting For Good Blogs and more

In the never ending quest to find *good* blogs, I’ve found one that is appropriately called “Blog Hunting” that’s not only a good one in and of itself but it’s also good for finding good blogs because it features little mini-reviews of blogs and more than that, some focus on a particular entry or two on the featured blog.

It’s fairly new but it looks promising as an up and coming resource for finding good blogs and interesting articles.

On another note, I’ve spent some time looking around at other *.wordpress.com hosted blogs and I’m starting to wonder about something… are there any of them that have pagerank?

I’m asking because in the last week or so I’ve probably loaded a couple of hundred of them and Firefox’s searchstatus plugin is reporting either PR 0 or “unranked” for every single one of ’em.

I know the basic way to get pagerank is by getting inbound links… have known and been doing that for a long time on other blogs and websites for years but *this* blog simply sits there with a zero. It’s not super important because it’s not like I’ll ever use this one for any kind of paid posting or anything. It’s just one measure of how noticed a page is becoming. Of course, one most obvious way would be to post here more often and have something to say that people want to read… yeah.. that’s the ticket!

Link Building

While I’m not totally ignorant on the subject, I thought I’d run this up the flagpole to see if anybody salutes…

What are the top methods of building one way inbound links quickly? Ideally, this would include specifying the keyword / phrase for the anchor text and each URL being linked to would only appear a maximum of two or three times on a single domain. It would also be best to have them be on as many different IP addresses as possible.

I’ll bet readers can come up with things I haven’t heard of or tried
