It looks as if the latest page rank update is complete. Despite Matt Cutts’ recent declaration that some earlier penalties will be revoked, several of my websites are still languishing at Page Rank 0 due to their previous association with the infamous PayPer Ppost embedded code. All links with that company were severed over six months ago but these quality blogs have still not recovered.
I have another domain that gets the highest traffic counts of all my sites and that has Page Rank 1, but that has stayed the same in the latest page rank review. I was disappointed because I post quality articles on that blog at least three times a week and I have worked hard on optimizing it. Maybe nex time …. The good news for me was that a new travel blog that I launched on 13 June has achieved Page Rank 1, not bad for a site that is only six weeks old. I got this site indexed by Google in four days and I have posted detailed posts at the rate of more than two per week ever since.
Why do I care so much about Page Rank? Because I believe that higher ranked sites will always do better in organic search results. Higher PR = higher SERPS ranking.
I know that a lot of bloggers and readers look at page rank as making a blog look better and it may but if you are in it for the money (I am assuming that you are) then page rank shouldn’t matter. The traffic that you get and the readers that keep coming back is what counts since they are the ones that help you to make money. I have also seen a page rank 0 blog end up as number 1 on a search term so I don’t feel that page rank has anything to do with where you end up on google’s pages. I hope that this makes sense.
