    Lot of guys are extremely happy and discussing about PR update.Let me ask you one question,What is the Use of getting PR,Whether your traffic increased by this.Whether your sales increased.
    I think this is just not a matter at all.We like internet marketers need to think about traffic not PR.Your thoughts are welcome

    it is about audiences if audience not webmaster its not important . My directory site is on the top for most keywords but its pr is 1 while my competitors have pr 4-5. This brings no money but little traffic.

    I agree with the topic starter. PR is useless. Just ignore PR and focus on the traffic and sales.

    In the past year, my PR has gone down but my traffic has increased month on month. I pay no attention to PR.

    PR is pointless. Would you rather have a PR8 site or have the most traffic? I'll go with traffic over PR anyday.

    Dude Google fluctuating PR.Once you sell your blogroll because of PR,Next update your site drop to PR3,Your customers ask refund.Better focus on traffic rather than PR.If you focus on traffic and get quality visitors PR comes automatically.

    all i know is this helps in getting some money passively by selling links. I never concentrate on building pr, but just concentrate on building traffic and pr picks up automatically...
    Now i am having pr2 and pr3 sites.

    Refund? The advertisers know that PR can drop, so they never ask for refund. :)

    Well I don't think good PR is useless at all.You can termed it like 'not a big matter'.
    If you've good PR then of course you can drive more traffic than not staying in a good PR. But for me PR is not so big issue. If I've good traffic then PR can be high automatically. So I think we should pay our attention more on getting traffic rather than higher PR.

    I personally think, we still have use of Google PageRank in link development of our website. It is always good in getting high PR links. Isn't?

    PR is for personal satisfaction of your efforts done in link building , sharing links in directories and also for ranking a bit

    Agreed. .PR will never make you money. . only SERP will. So if you got a PR5 site that ranks on the 3rd page for a specific keyword you can keep it while my PR1 site ranks 6 on the SERP . . . its so simple . but for some reason people love PR

    Having high PR doesn't affect keyword rankings (from my research) but it does mean that you will have a lot of eager paying customers for links that you sell.
