Page Rank is it really worthless and now nothing more than a Con?

Hi Gang

Sorry to be the bearer of such bad news but Page Rank as a cornerstone of most peoples linking Methodology is really on the way out. Confirmed in reality (reading between thye lines) by Mr Google himself, none other than Matt Cutts with his treatise on Page Rank Sculpting.

Our video take on it all can be found here.

As usual the Power poimnts and Word Documents can be found in the members only download area here.

I'll upload more information and documentation suchas Mat Cutts "Page Rank Sculpting" feature as soon as possible. Watch this space.

Yes I am with you on this, page rank is a myth, though in a small term in can related to popularity and traffic. You can have a pr4 site who's traffic is 300 uniques a day, or a pr4 website with 150 uniques a day. Maybe the juice you get is based on the traffic that website incorporates building links back to your own website. It is just a idea for discussion?

Reading in some articles today, one of the other reasons that I think Page Rank may well be on the way out is that Google apparently have only limted exclusive time left on the Patent which is apparently owned by Stanford University and not Mssrs Brin and Page. They registered the patent whilst still at University there, the Unversity therefore havew the patent Google an exclusive deal with them. They've extended their deal with the patent once all ready in 2003 and I can't see them going for it again as it would be too expensive and they would only have a limited time period to maximise any potential return.

This exclusivity on the patent expires in 2017 at which point the other SE's can jump on the bandwagon.

Hmnn can't imagine Google are going to like sharing that sort of concept
