Very nice article and right to the point. I don’t know if this is really the best place to ask but do you folks have any thoughts on where to get some professional writers? Thx

Jim -
Interesting news about Page…funny that he’s two years older than me. “Look, ma, I invented Google…”

“Yeah, right, son…”

The great thing about PageRank for someone in my shoes is pure validation. Just reading and applying SEO and realizing – yeah, I’ve done something right to see an improvement. Seeing as how you can’t officially ‘sell’ PR without incurring some penalty from Google – apart from selling the blog in question or attracting advertisers, it’s not really an indication of merit.

However, a lot of people do take it as such – or evaluate credulity by it, which may or may not be the point. I’ve noticed plenty of folks that I personally trust with no PR – others receive it and deserve it…then there’s me. Still trying to figure it out.

Alexa is far more unreliable than the Google PR. But all of these are only small components of what the SEO world is all about. The reason for such an “optimistic” cheer at the update was that it had not happened for such a long time and having the PR increased on your projects is sort of a validation for yourself that you really did a good job.

Hi James,

The reason your website has not improved is because it has very low amount of inbound links.

If you search for “yahoo site explorer” and enter your website, you will see the amount of inbound links. Then try and compare to my website here and see how big the difference is in amount of links.

Do bear in mind that the amount of links does not matter too much, but in this particular case it is one of the many factors Google use to determine value.

True, you can also shape link juice around with the NOFOLLOW attribute. It may be harder to manage on user generated content areas, but something as simple as the blogroll is no worries.

Since the last PR update was some 9 months before this one, is anyone trying to pretend that the real PR, what ever that is, has stayed static all that time. I think not, so ,it is a big wonder that we get excited by this green bar. OK, it looks good, but that’s af far as it goes. Alexa rating change daily, remarkable there isn’t that much fuss ofver them, or is a question of a simple number?

Jim or anyone else, any idea why http://www.digitalswitchover.co.uk remains at PR0 for years? Some PageRank checkers present the PR value as not valid which makes me wonder if something else may be technically wrong …

Yes, after 9 months google has updated page ranks. But i doubt if google page rank has anything to do with SEO?
