    I think its clear that Pagerank is only a small portion of google ranking algorithm, especially recently. I have been seeing a ton of low PR sites at the top of serps. I think site age is playing a larger role, as well as just good keywords in the domain and titles.

    PR is still important to others especially if they sell links, but for me, SERP is more important..

    PR is still important. Google would not have high PR otherwise.

    Internal pr is important. What is exported to the toolbar doesn't matter.

    PR is important...the age of a site is important as well...But there are young sites with low PR. But they're asked-for...

    Hi guys,

    that's true. we can agree with only SERP, PR is not much important.

    PR will only helpful in link building with high pr sites.

    but if you 've got good back links so you will get also PR juice from google, that's fact.

    only your targeted keywords is important in search engines, so you can get good traffic and as well good business from Your business website.


    Thanks
    Jay

    PR is simply a gauge of how much you can earn in advertising and link sales.
    I can get my site ranked at #7 for a keyword of over 7,000,000 competing pages. And it is only at PR1 but over ranked site which are PR 4 -5. Basically it is building of one way quality links, keyword density, framework of the site, onpage optimization and following the guidelines of Google.
