    For me, I will choose both. High PR and high traffic. That will be more awesome. :D

    Why would you want a low PR with no traffic? Of course I would always choose traffic over PR

    Isn't the end goal of having a high PR to increase site traffic through better SERP rankings? I think that a site with steady traffic is far more valuable than a high PR site. Generally speaking, if a site has strong traffic, a high PR will naturally follow at some point.

    1. PageRank 3 with 20 unique visitors daily.
    2. PageRank 0 with 1000 unique visitors daily.

    With these two options i choose number 1. Even PR 0 will be increased with that number of unique daily visitors. better than PR 3

    the point of pagerank is to increase serp, thus increase traffic. Overall whats better?

    Gas or a Car ?

    you cant just GET traffic, you need a way to get it, usally thats by linking. Linking = getting pagerank..

    I could Choose PR if it was PR 5 or 300 visitors.

    1000 visitors is WAYYYYY better than PR 3

    PR v/s traffic battle has been going on for quite some time now. Which one of them carries more importance is a matter of personal choice. Some people like to go for PR while others prefer traffic. Pagerank Here we mentioned it as a matter of personal choice because different people expect different things from a particular site or blog.

    every thing is traffic who is looking for pr just seos and persons related with this kind of activity but real vistors like some mechical engg or civil engineer just reach your sit if it has trafic and i donot think every people has google toolbar installed in there machine to chk pr of each nad every page pr worths nothing as after 3 months u can nt say there the pages will have same as they are currently having.

    Traffic is important, but if you are using Adsense then Pagerank is the most important factor. Google's smart pricing lets you have more money per click (for the same ad) if your PR is say 7 even your site's traffic is not much. But You will get just couple of cents if your PR is very low say 0 or 1.

    Traffic is more important but if your site is new its hard to get backlinks from those with higher PRs so is there a way to get more traffic with your site with few backlinks?
