I think the real problem stems from people just padding their post counts and then selling their sig links The same idiots turn up in every thread posting the same rubbish or just rephrasing what the person above them has said. It's a shame really as it used to be a good forum
You might have a high PR, but this doesn't mean you will get huge traffic flowing to your site... Thus, is all about the SEO stuffs, if you want to drive more visitors to your site.
Right i am out of this thread, people just don't understand how unimportant pagerank actually is. Seriously read the thread next time. Where have all the experts gone? -;- i wonder.... I totally agree with you mate, i see a guy all the time with 11k posts and he always posts three/four word posts which basically add jack sh*t to the thread its self. DP definitely used to be a good forum, it seems there are too many newbies and not enough experienced players on here.
It isnt as important as quality content and good anchor text back links, that will help you rank higher on google
they aren't related. I can show you some extremely important PR8 + sites that receive little search traffic and I can show you PR2 sites with tons of search traffic. Flash built sites are one example - they can have extreme PR (like the homepage of a major car manufacturer) but not return any searched terms.
I don,t think pr is so important I have three websites only one in my signature here. I been on yahoo and google ranging from one of my pages keywords on first page in the 1 and 2 slot very realy I get a hit from that page and yahoo and google have over 300 hundred thousand sites listed for that keyword. I get other keyword hits on it and there on page 6 - page 8. so I think its just hype.
Page Rank is the concept used by only the Google search engine. Remaining all search engine does not bother about the page rank. That means increase of the page rank does not only bring traffic to your website.......
This is crazy... I dont understand why people think Page Rank is important still? I have seen nothing on this thread to convince me that there is anything about it that is important. "You can sell links for a lot of money" This kills your page rank AND your SERPS... So it is not a value!
