Google Pagerank update January 2008
Posted: January, 12 2008
For those of you not yet aware or totally missed it (like we did) as of January 10th 2008, Google is updating its toolbar PageRank.
Each update causes a stir among the SEO community but does it really matter any more?
It’s common knowledge that page rank holds very little weight on search engine rankings. Old data, normally a couple of months at least, (~ October last change), shows you how little bearing it has on your ranking today.
I’ve always believed you should build and maintain a website for your customers and readers as well as for yourself; I enjoy adding new content, it’s a method of keeping up to date with current technologies and trends, as well as creating more genre specific content -
A lot of people use ‘Black hat’ SEO techniques to get a page noticed, which probably do work to a degree, but that’s kind of a moral choice to make more than anything… anyway, most of these methods are short lived - what’s that old saying?
It’ll all come out in the wash
