pr vs serp

hi all

here i am just to discuss pr and serp

1)like i am working on 2 sites

on 1 site i am doing work for pr
so i will like to take backlink from maximum pr pages.

in my point of view

pr 6 is going to provide me better pr as compare to 20 links(pr 2) or more.

2)and on other site for serp

i will like to take maximum no of links (content pages) without any considertioan of pr but keeping in mind the page is cached
exact reverse of first case

so i am inviting all the webamasters to discuss this point here

Regards

Don't worry about Pagerank, worry about providing rich unique quality content that is useful and informative. In my opinion you should spend 80% of your time working on content and 20% building backlinks. The main worries should be search engine results, not Pagerank. In the process of building "relevant" quality backlinks you'll naturally gain Pagerank from those backlinks.

 

You won't achieve your business goal through PR... you need SERP for the same.

 

yeah, serp is way more important and will be more beneficial. pr is nice and all, but not that big of a deal. imho.

 

just get as many incoming links as you can

 

concentrate on SERP

 

For test purposes I can see the value of this, but obtaining high value links for test purposes is also a bit of a waste. It will be a lot more beneficial to combine the 2 in a way. Ignore PR but go for high value links if that makes sense.

 

Exactly First aim of SEO is Ranking...

 

PR will not give you business, So I prefer SERPs for my website.

 

Ive tried both ways, go for SERP's everytime, visitors = $$

 

Work for PR that's funny

PR is worthless

SERPS is all that mather

 

hi
first thanks to all for their valuable suggestions
and i think i have confused everone.
i never asked which is beter for business pr or serp

I was just intersted in some suggstions that

what should be my approach in both the cases
if i work for pr for my site and 2nd if i work for serp

I think now its clear to everone on this post

 

you should concentrate on serp. dont worry about PR.

 

Agreed. Many low PR sites demolish high PR sites for SERPs

 

How many of your end users will have the google toolbar installed?

 

There's a third option: get links that will bring you traffic, no matter what the search engines think. A nofollow link that sends a thousand visitors is better than one surrounded in text if nobody clicks it. You want visitors from search engines - they're more likely to 'convert' from visitors to customers - but you want enough sources of traffic so that if any one of them went down, or decided not to like you, the rest will keep you afloat.

Quality traffic > general traffic > serps > pr
