PageRank Traffic Relationship
April 24th, 2008 | Published in Increasing Traffic | 2 Comments
As you may have noticed from the PageRank indicator on my sidebar, I have received Google PageRank 2 a month ago. I was really excited over the PageRank considering all those months without a PageRank and reading from other bloggers about the importance of the Google PageRank.
When I received my PageRank I really expected for a major traffic increase in my blog. Nevertheless the days have passed and the my blog traffic seems the same. The Google PageRank only stands for a indicator of site quality. Being awarded a PageRank won’t provide you any good unless you are trading links at your blog. Google PageRank updates 2-3 times a year and it doesn’t effect the SERP results of your page. I have checked for some keywords and the SERP results are the same before and after the PageRank change.
For increasing organic Google traffic PageRank is never enough. You have to work on ways of increasing inbound links and creating better target keyword oriented content.
