Well, I have a PR of 3 so far, but I'm having a hard getting above that with any of my sites. I'd ultimately like to have a PR 5-6 for my site, but I just don't know how to break that barrier.
I was thinking it might be a good idea to start exchanging links with web designers in other areas, since 90%+ of my work comes from local and return customers... I figure I'd be better off getting to the top 10 for local searches while simultaneously boosting competitors' sites in their areas.
The only question I have is how to approach people with an offer like that... :shrug: Not many people are quick to promote their competition.
