No changes in PR here, althought traffic is way up.

There must be something going on, as every msg board is bubbling over the almighty Google PR.

Now, I need to re-UNinstall this spyware <cough> toolbar from my PC.

Heh Heh...

Paul,
No change in UKWebmaster PR but what the hell. I was not expecting PR increase on this site as I have not been building links that will increate pr but links that will increase traffic
But I am delighted at one of my new sites that went from PR0 to PR7 . I have been building links that will increate its PR but I excepted PR6 and not sever but I am delighted. The site is called: www.velnetweb.co.uk

Does higher PR mean higher rankings?

Does higher PR mean higher traffic?

Does higher PR mean higher revenue?

Is there an absolute answer, or just theories? I believe it's the latter, so my answer to the above questions would be an astounding NO.

Take the search term, "Free Games" for example (Don't click on the #3 listing, "Miniclip" or you'll face the dreaded, "Can't back out" script <Hi Donkey

>), you see PR6's at the top 3, yet a PR7 at #4. And low and behold, the net's largest, "Free Game" site, is at #5 with a PR of ZERO, or least that's what the redirect page is. Then you have Gamesville.com, the nets 4th largest, "Free Game" site, with a PR8, not even on the first page. The net's 2nd and 3rd largest, "Free Game" sites, Yahoo Games & MSN Games aren't anywhere to be found (Hmmmm...they happen to be Google's competition, as stated in their PRE-IPO statement). Oh wait, there's something that resembles MSN games, buried on the third page :roll: Heck, even Yahoo accurately list Pogo.com as the #1 listing, atop their own.

The #1 listing at Google has less than 200 backlinks. Pogo has 1800. The #2 listing has over 3 thousand. The #3 listing has over 4 thousand.

Google is broken, but I sure love the free traffic they send. :banana:

I wonder what the Googloids are doing with all of their lotto <cough> stock winnings <cough> earnings... :blue:

I could show you the above example for over 1 million search phrases. I'm sure of it.

This tells me I should continue to spend time building pages, rather than links.

JMHO

Peace.

Paul,
PR is not always there to generate traffic, PR generate CASH. If you go to sites that sell PR/text links you will know what I mean. Text link on a PR8 goes is priced between $200 - $600 and you can comfortably place about 10 - 15 such text on a strong PR8 sites. So we are talking over $2,000 profit without even putting the contents of you site into consideration.

With Google an immediate flood of inbound links on a brand new site can be harmfull.

Oh my, this guy/gal knows his/her chit.

Smeagain, IMHO, don't give too much detail via posts, yet write an E-Book. If you need help marketing it, PM me. Not saying I will market it for you, but there is a flood of suckers looking to learn SEO the EZ way.

Again, even though I partake in, what I consider SEO, "SPAM", in a sense, I feel I'm doing nothing wrong optimizing pages. And fine, call me, "KING" spammer hahahah. Won't be able to do that with my opt-in e-mail lists though, hahahhahaah.

Best of Luck.

Peace.

smeagain,
I am sure you know the sandbox effect is there to curb the effect of loads of inbound link flooding to a new site, no, I do not have loads of links pointing to the site, I have a few relevant links pointing to the site.

Temi,

Is the, "Sandbox" effect something Google has stated, or is it another, "Theory"?

Thanks

Paul
