    google pagerank demoted

    Google PageRank, which has caused its fair share of excitement, disappointment, worry and FUD over the years, finally seems to be on its way out.

    Although Google has been telling people not to treat its public PR scores as an all-important metric for some time, the statistic has now been dropped from the Webmaster Tools.
    Google employee Susan Moskwa says:

    We?ve been telling people for a long time that they shouldn?t focus on PageRank so much; many site owners seem to think it?s the most important metric for them to track, which is simply not true. We removed it because we felt it was silly to tell people not to think about it, but then to show them the data, implying that they should look at it
    PageRank is still displayed on the Google toolbar, so it?s perhaps not a completely redundant measure just yet, but it certainly shouldn?t hold any real weight for those serious about SEO and the health of their web site.

                I've always put more effort into building relevant links in than PR.

                        Don't worry, nothing has changed. All that articles says is that its been removed from google webmaster tools where it lists your sites highest PR pages.

                          I've had my PR 3 sites go to PR 0 and back to PR 2 with no loss of traffic, or any change in keywords...

                          Pagerank is retarded and the people who preach it are retarded as well.

                                        pr3, pr4, pr8

                                        So which one is it?

                                        I never said there was a PR8 porn site, what I said is that there is no 'cap' on Page Rank for adult sites as you so 'matter of factly' stated.

                                                Pagerank always sucked.
                                                I have a forum and most forum's will have more outgoing than incoming links.
                                                So I have thousands of pages indexed, and nice traffic. But google still says it's a pagerank 2.
                                                Pagerank is only nice-to-have if you are selling something, like hardlinks.

                                                    It's 5

                                                    But doesn't matter a whole lot anyway

                                                    I stopped caring about pagerank when the tables turned on PR to traffic ratio (if that makes sense)

                                                    When I first started building sites, the one's with higher PR had Higher traffic, now it seems pretty much round the other way with a few excemptions.

                                                    Haven't checked my Pageranks for ages.........

                                                          Links are not just for PR, I think that is secondary, links are for relevancy and link popularity... if you have good content, and a popular site with good links, you might become more and more authoritative in G terms, so you will get better serps and consequently more traffic and $ ( this in response to the " linksellers are dead now " )

                                                                    I believe that link would still be good. Think of what would happen in real life ( without any SEO working for a site, buying or getting links etc ) you could not prevent people with small, or new sites from linking to you ( how could you? ) Imho having a % of pr0 links is healthy and makes the site look natural. G hates patterns and I think their algo is not a simple 100 pr4, 2000 pr2, 10000 pr1 ;) What gives a site authority is a combination of things.

                                                                    I would watch for banned sites, etc, but shouldn´t be ultra strict about it either, to preserver the " natural " appearance of the site. Also when buying links one has to be able to poderate the potential, if it is a pr0 with lots of potential, I would pay good money for it, if it is just a flat pr0 no traffic, etc then it would be a different price and so on.

                                                                    That is why it gets difficult to price links individually, you have to consider traffic, age, link pop, serp, pr, and am sure other things too.

                                                                                      p.s. and after I showed you my seo results, you still say that I don't know anything about seo? Where do you get that from? Do search engine results not matter to you? If not, what do you call SEO? Getting sites with pagerank to link to you and hope for results? I do it different than you and still have good results. So there must be more ways to SEO than just what you know. Just because you didn't buy a link package from me doesn't mean you have to lie and try to harm my link business. You saw my results and so did a dozen others. Sad that you turned out to be a lying cunt.

                                                                                              they are right though, pagerank is useless to people who dont know what it means. they are just proving themselves to be idiots who know nothing about seo. if you use it to get killer google spots without any work of course its useless, if you have half of a clue and use it to get a ballpark idea of how good of linking power a site has, you will love it.

That's why the sites only had one banner and one dating ad. That's why they don't make many sales. The new owner can do what he wants with the niche traffic thay have.

                                                                                                  Your selective amnesia makes you seem childish, and at your age, that is very unprofessional.
