google pagerank

Anyone who has a blog or a web site knows about the hullabaloo associated with page rank. Indeed, if you judge things by the fuss that everyone is making about page rank, you can say that it is one of the biggest things that concerns web site and blog owners. So why is page rank important? Does it really have any advantages at all? If so, what are these advantages? Here are a few that I could think of.

The higher your page rank, the higher you will be in the SERPs

Who wouldn’t want to be on the first page of a search query on Google? I have some other blogs that I write for and one time, I did a search using particular keywords for the blog. I could not even begin to describe the feeling that washed over me when I saw that the blog was in the first page of the results! More than the feeling, however, being on the first page – or first few pages – makes for more visibility, which in turn, could increase the traffic to your site.

The higher your page rank, the more trust people will put in your site

Though this point may be debatable, it is true that if people see that your page rank is high, they will think better of your site. For some reason, having a high page rank gives out the idea that your site is reliable and of high quality. Though that may not always be the case, it is reasonable to think so, don’t you agree?

    The fact is that PR really should never be used for anything else then a gage of links pointing to a website. Then when you look at those links and see the anchors in it you can determine what kind of traffic or authority that website has.

    I always here that the better the PR your site is, the better but the thing I would like to mention is I still get a good amount of traffic (from link building) and my site is still a PR0

    I used to get really consumed with page rank (I had one site that got to a pr6.) But now, I look at it as one indicator of how my site is doing, with traffic and conversion the real prizes. Hi Page Rank doesn’t necessarily mean high traffic.

    Thanks,
    Chris
