Google Update, PageRank, Backlink Information

[samflutch]

For those of you not yet aware, Google is currently updating the Page Rank they are displaying in their toolbar. Each update causes a stir among the SEO community and webmasters trying to get their websites to the top of the Google Rankings.Page Rank is essentially a score out of ten as to the “value” of your site in comparison to other websites on the Internet. It is based on two primary factors; the number of links you have pointing to your website and the value of the links pointing to your website.

PR is now less important than it used to be. It seems that Google has gone back to the old-fashioned keyword density. BUT if you are comparing apples to apples - two sites with equal links and equal density, the higher PR pages WILL go to the top! Having said that, you can push your sites above those of higher PR with great optimization.

Soo, in other words, PR still has importance, but is not of the highest concern anymore.

PR should be secondary to keyword optimization. I do not know why we still discuss this topic in threads with thousands of replies in it. There are people out there who still go after PR blindly without offering any quality content.

So we should note the purpose of doing site, not only for high PR.
Do you think so?

I agree with you that PageRank is less important than the targeted traffic and good ranking. Top ranking is based on the number of related back links and rich content

Since you tell here that PageRank is less important, why do you recommend getting backlinks. Am I missing something here? So do you mean that backlinks with nofollow would be good for you?

Google begun updating its pagerank information some time early this week. They are also updating sites backlink information. So, check out your web properties to see if you’ve been given a green bar boost. This is the first PR cycle that The Iteration Station has been around for and we debued at a PR 3- not too bad. Without getting into too much detail, PageRank is essentially a score out of ten as to the "value" of your site in comparison to other websites on the Internet. It is based on two primary factors; the number of links you have pointing to your website and the value of the links pointing to your website.

I think that happens when SEO is on Tour.

I have noticed that pagerank is being updated far more than it used too. In fact it happens probably every two months-ish from what i can see. post of it is just visual and does not really indicate Googles real opinion of your pages on your site.
