You’re perfectly right. I am looking for sales and those sales are coming from traffic, not from low or high PR.

As long as you can rank no. 1 on Google even without a high PR, it’s quite clear that even Google doesn’t care too much about PR ;-)

“Stop Crying…I really don’t give a S#$! about PageRank!”

How those words should echo over the internet instead of our pagerank crazy masters of the web

You’re right - we should all be worrying about how our human visitors perceive the value of our sites; not what the search engines think!

(My blog stayed at PR4 if anyone cares - I don’t!)

Yeah, that sounds right.

The problem is it’s a lot harder to sell links if you’re taking away the link juice.

Correct me if I am wrong: you can still sell text links and not loose your PR.

You only need to:
1.- Add a nofollow tag in your links
OR
2.- Use an intermediate redirection page that you add in you robots.txt file.

I think that google’s aim is to avoid creating a weakpoint in their system.
They want to avoid people increasing their PR playing with websites having a cheap text link selling programm or create ~~satellites~~ blogs with content and a text selling programm….

I agree about not being pushed around by Google.

Not only am I not bothered with Google PR, I am still selling TLAs and enabling dofollow for comments. I am not going to be dictated by Google on what I should be doing for my blog.

PageRank will always be significant to an extent. But of course, it won’t be as important as before due to the recent debacle. But PR is such a necessary evil that all bloggers deep down love a high PR.

Thanks for doing that. It was getting almost annoying.
