Many Webmasters and Publishers Are Still Hooked On PageRank!
Many website owners around the world have Google® PageRankTM (PR) on their minds these days. An interesting PageRank update happened recently, an update that added PR to index pages and certain internal pages that were heretofore languishing in PR0 territory. From what I've read in certain forums, pages with established toolbar PR have either stayed the same or experienced a moderate PR demotion.
Yeah, many of us were addicted to PR back when Google was the undisputed king of search. But now with other major players like Yahoo! and Ask.com aggressively improving the relevance of their search engine results pages (SERP's), many of us aren't as gung-ho about PR as we used to be. I think a lot of publishers out there are like me when it comes to PR: as long as my pages have some PR, that's just fine.
Of course, if a site has PR0 after months of white hat search engine optimization (SEO) then we panic, because if a site has nothing but PR0 pages despite serious promotion, then the site may have been completely and permanently delisted from the Google index, and that is definitely something to panic about.
PR Addiction Still Driving Site Owners Crazy!
Judging by the chatter in the forums where I often hangout, there are still quite a few site owners out there who are still addicted to PR. They act like PR is everything, like PR is all that matters, like...like if the index page of their flagship website dropped from PR5 to PR3, a deep and dark depression would ensue.
