I’m so busy this few days due to final semester examination is coming, tonnes of test and assignment almost kill me. Between, I’ve received a question from my reader (BM) regarding my previous post, I said that Pagerank was important for search engine ranking, BM was asking why I said that Pagerank was important I have PR0 now. Okay, I write this post is to answer BM’s inquiry and also answer my previous post, I’m going to say that Pagerank not really important and not really affect our search engine ranking, maybe it does affect search engine ranking but not 100%.
Answer BM’s Inquiry
BM : You’re telling me that PR is important, but you’re got a PR zero. Done something wrong?
Answer : Yes, I did sell text link before and my Pagerank was slapped by Google from PR2 to PR0, I did mention it in my previous post. I said that pagerank did affect our search engine ranking previously, but I have to pull back my word and say pagerank doesn’t really affect our search engine ranking.
Pagerank Doesn’t Affect Search Engine Ranking
Pagerank doesn’t really affect our search engine ranking, my pagerank was slapped by Google few months ago, my optimized keyword is still stay in page 3 or 4 in Google Search Result, I get into Top 10 of keyword of “Make Money Blogging” few days ago and I realized that Pagerank doesn’t really affect our search engine ranking.
If you realize, when you search for something else (i.e. Food), sometimes you will see the lowest or without PR’s site will appear in the Top 10 search result while those blog with high PR will sit at the back. Yea, perhaps Pagerank will affect search engine ranking, but it takes a very small portion. Perhaps Pagerank takes the large portion, but fresh and unique content takes the biggest portion right now, it’s the big factor that affect our search engine ranking.
I still do like to get back my PR although PR doesn’t affect search engine ranking, PR is something like a “medal” for me, I feel proud to have it. I’d already sent a reconsideration letter to Google last month and still wait them to review my blog again, but I’m not rush to get it back because I think that build great content is more important than everything. If you don’t know why Google slapped our PR, perhaps you can read my previous post that talks about the reasons that Google slaps our PR.

Lisas last blog post..LINK LOVE
Lisa : Yea, it’s depend on our content actually. So I have to pull back my word and say Pagerank is not really important for search engine ranking since I can get into Top 10 of my keyword although I have PR0. “Google Search Result”. :)
Lol. by the way, I am trying some ads now, like socialspark, adsbite all that, get the appropriate ones for myself =D
mike : Oh that’s great! It’s great to test few make money program, then just stick with the one you made the maximum profit after you tested it. Do let me know which one brings you the maximum profit after test okay? :)
it’s always good to have a high PR, i agree it’s like a medal of your achievement..i still believe high ranking PR is worth it but the real benefits of it are still lying out there somewhere…maybe we can write to google and ask them about it….LOL
|1f34|-|1r3 : Haha, yea I prefer to have high PR too. It’s like a level of a blog, the higher PR you have the higher level you’re in (It’s my thought, not true want). :)
That’s why PR is not important and doesn’t really affect search engine ranking, with this 2 things, I prefer high search engine ranking. :)
Page rank is basically a measure of the blog’s authority. If 10 other blogs mentioned about your blog, it is considered having more authority than those blog with no blogs mentioning it.
Personally, page rank is still important in search engine result ranking. You don’t want to be the top 10 for only the keywords Make Money Blogging right? If you have better PR, you will even able to appear on front page of keywords like “Pagerank search engine ranking”.
Believe me you will have unique visitors coming from search engine in three digits :) (Just sharing)
