Improve Your Blog's Page Rank With Z-List

Basic concerns for start-up blogs are about increasing traffic to their blog and also to improve page ranks for their webpages with search engines like Google, Technorati, etc. An effective solution to counter these concerns is Z-list.

What is Z-List?


The Z-List is a concept started in December 2006 by Mack Collier, from A Viral Garden, as a meme. A meme is a "unit of cultural information" which can propagate from one mind to another in a manner analogous to genes. The Z list is a blog meme, which has bloggers creating and sharing a list of many links to blogs in a single post. This list is known as Z-List since this is a list of blogs which have less exposure as compared to A-List Blogs.

How Can Z-List help?


Search engines like Google, Technorati, etc. have a democratic system of ranking your blog / website. The number of other sites / blogs that link to your blog / site is taken into consideration while assigning a page rank to your site / blog. Therefore, when link of your blog / site, listed in a Z-list is posted on a number of other sites, the number of blogs / sites linking to your blog goes up and helps to improve the page rank of your blog. Secondly, the webmasters of the blogs which are included in the Z-list, on your site, may want to see who is linking to their blog and may visit your site, request a backlink, leave a comment and even may subscribe your RSS feed if they get interested in your content. This also helps in increasing the traffic to your site.
