Well I know some of the more succesful affiliates dont like to post their websites and that is fine. But if you could please give us some morsels of information on achieving the coveted Page Rank.

Just Google search "poker", contact those top sites and ask them to exchange links.

Work your way down the list.

Obviously if Google thinks those are the best poker sites in the world, a link from them to your site is a big plus for you.

As always plain, old fashioned hard work will get you Page Rank. There is no secret to it.

PageRank is kinda irrelevant, having a high pagerank does not automatically give you a high ranking in google. Many Pagerank2 sites outrank pagerank5 sites in google.

Get links from other RELATED sites with your chosen anchor text and slowly you'll work your way up.

There are other ways to get links besides exchanging links. Do a search for "link building" on Google.

Here's a good link building tutorial.
