IŽve been using adwords for 3 months, but now that my site's popularity has grown over the web, I donŽt see my pagerank go up at all. I have links to this website in almost 30 websites, and google doesnŽt show me not even at the 30th result page for the most common keywords contained at my site and at the keywords meta tag.
You think Google may be doing that on purpose, in order to keep me an Adwords customer forever? Shall I turn it off, to see if something changes at the pageRank?
I hope you can help me. Thanks a lot.

Firstly, the ranking of the sites which host your links - are they good content-rich sites, or are they just link farms or holding pages.
Secondly, are the sites that link to you relevant to your keywords. Most SEO's say that if you sell, say, bananas, but your link is on a page of a site related to apples, it wont help you that much (but other SEO's disagree).
Thirdly, it will take time - several weeks or months - for your site to move up the list if you have done everything correctly.
I would suggest keep enhancing your site progressively adding new fresh content, and keep developing your links progressively as well - in time it will all show through.
