    Hi,

    I own a forum that has 206,000+ pages indexed in Google but the HP only had a PR3 after we changed the subdomain.

    What sort of weight would this site gain? Im considering adding it to the CO-OP but only if the weight is worthy? Has the cap now gone?

    Thanks

    The cap is gone and the weight for that site would be pretty signifigant

    CHeck it with the api, and check that the site: command doesn't show any suppemental results. Forums can be very tricky, I have wasted big bucks expecting huge weight and ending up with something like 1k

    Thanks. :)

    Would the weight increase if the PR increased also? So a PR6 with 200k pages would be higher weight than a PR3 with 200k?

    Thanks

    in the words of Mike Grehan....

    I get asked often how to improve PR. It happened many times last week. My stock answer, "PageRank isn't so important, so just forget about it," draws some very confused looks from people who somehow are convinced it's vital for ranking.

    What's more, one question I was asked last week had me slightly dumbfounded for a moment: "If you're saying I can't value links that I buy based on PageRank, how do I value how much I'd be prepared to pay for them?"

    This is the stark reality: People still actually buy and sell links valued against Google's PR score. Which is ridiculous. It's just buying into the myth.
