Get a pagerank 4 without any external link !!!

At the beginning of this blog, I had planned to keep writing about my SEO efforts. There were only 2 posts (here and here). There were no more posts after that because I got busy with content creation and with another venture of mine. I had forgotten all about SEO till I happened to install google toolbar on my browser and surprisingly I have a pagerank 4 for binaryday. I was surprised because I have not tried to get any external link till now.

The reason I am posting it here is because the pagerank goes against all conventional SEO theory I have read till now.

    The domain is not old. It is less than 6 months old.
    I write about diverse topics. I have never thought about SEO while writing an article. So you will not find any keyword concentration on my page
    Most importantly the blog does not have absolutely any external links to it. There are a couple of linkbacks from comments I had left on other blogs like techcrunch, but I am sure google must be heavily discounting those links.

Then what explains this sudden jump in my google pagerank? I am not sure. If any SEO expert happens to read this post, then will request to let me know what is it that I am doing right.

    By the way you have couple of links coming in to your site. The easiest way to keep track of incoming links is through scribe fire. I covered it in a post here. You might find it immensely useful. I literally do all my blogging through this firefox plugin –
