Difference Between Increasing Traffic and Increasing Page Rank for Your Blog


Many bloggers think that increasing traffic and increasing page rank for their blogs are actually the same thing. Perhaps in the old days this is a fact, but now this could not be so because increasing traffic is only intended to generate suitable income, and increasing page rank for your blog is a mere trust given to you by Google and other search engines.
Increasing traffic involves a lot of SEO techniques. These SEO techniques are intended for the sole purpose of gaining as much viewers as you can get.  In order to gain viewers, these SEO techniques are done to have relevant and valuable SERP or Search Engine Results Page. This means that when users try to look for information on a specific topic, which is evidently what your article is all about, they will immediately find your blog or a post to that blog first page on the search results list.
Increasing traffic involves both on-site and off-site SEO techniques. On-site SEO techniques include site design, content keywording and analysis, relevant outbound links, and among others. While off-site techniques involve outside your blog like backlinks or links that points to your blog from other sources or sites, search engine and blog directory submission, and joining social networks. These techniques can ultimately gain you a lot of viewers as you would want, and eventually earn you revenues.  
Whereas in terms of increasing page rank for your blog involves more on the content itself, and by not participating on blog promotion and marketing. This means that you would only gain traffic based on the high reliability and constant updates of your posts or content. By doing this, other blogs will also try to link your blog on their pages and will subsequently build trust on the relevant information that you give them with regard to the same Niche or product you and they are advocating. So blogs that opt for a high PR don’t have to create backlinks voluntarily, because other blogs or sources are doing it for them.
Thus, increasing traffic for your blog is most likely intended just for immediate money. While increasing page rank takes time for you to acquire income. Page ranks are given by Google and this means that you are doing online business discreetly and fairly. This is not to say that doing SEO techniques is not a fair business to begin with. This simply means that when you do a lot of SEO techniques, you are vulnerable to certain violations and errors against Google such as link farms and voluntary advertisements, without you being aware of.
It is difficult sometimes to be aware of what is proper marketing or not because Google has its own algorithms that can’t be known to the public. It would be unreasonable for Google to give high page ranks to some blogs that are earning for more than half a thousand dollars a month as the same PRs to other blogs that do safe marketing.
Even so, increasing page rank can also gain more viewers and generate revenues at the same time. The advantage of increasing page rank for you blog is that you give high value to your blog for viewers and search engines and earning money at the same time. While for increasing traffic is solely for business purposes and cannot be considered valuable by search engines and by some readers, even though this can boost revenues in no time.
Some bloggers don’t care or worry about page ranks because all they care about is how much they can earn for their blogs; while for other bloggers they give importance to page ranks and can wait for the proper time to earn. Most of these bloggers don’t necessarily after for money but for the purpose of expressing themselves and free speech.
