I don’t get bloggers sometimes. They get all huffy about their Page Rank going down as if it’s something that they are entitled to.
Now, normally I’d be front and center on all these ego games but here the real truth is that Page Rank has been dead for years. That’s why I never even looked at it anymore.
Here’s why: back when Google started Page Rank was a pretty global thing. If you had a PR of 6 or 7, it’d apply equally to everything. That’s why, back in 2004, if you did a search for “offshoring” you’d find my blog in #3 position because I had a lot of inbound links so Google just assumed I was relevant for offshoring too.
Not true.
In the past few years Page Rank has gone from something that’s global to something that applies to each keyword differently.
So, while I am very highly relevant if you do a search for “tech blogger” you won’t find me any longer on offshoring.
The problem is that Google can’t really show you your real Page Rank anyway. How would it? It would need to ship you a spreadsheet to explain how you rank for each keyword.
Now, since we’re all talking about this, two other issues. First, bloggers were showing up too high in searches anyway. In comparing to my friends we got lots of traffic from Google that we didn’t deserve. The problem is that traffic isn’t good anyway. Put it this way, let’s say I showed up high in a search for Saturn Cars (since I’ve written about them). Most people wouldn’t have found much value in that post and even if they did they wouldn’t have stuck around to be a regular reader.
I’d rather show up for when you’re searching for tech or geek stuff. That’s the audience I want to be in front of.
Oh, and if you sell links to try to game Google you deserve to be knocked down the list a few pegs.

It’s important to remember that PageRank is just one factor out of about 200 factors. I’m not so sure that PageRank is based on keywords, because it is what it is. No matter what keyword you came to the site through, the PageRank has the same value.
I think what you meant to say is that “search rankings” are based on a keyword basis.

No page rank for me anyway. I've been trying to get my Racing Social Network site to get some traffic but have not really got the job done. Searching around the web to get ideas about how it works. Thanks for the info.
