Wanna say hello and a question about PR
 

Though I'd say hello to everybody as this is my first post in GG&J.
I have been browsing the forums today and saw in link trades talking about PR... As far as I can understand, this is the "Position Rating" in the SEs (or google specifically?) but for what keywords? To make the question clean, when somebody is asking to exchange hard-links with a PR-5 site what does he mean? How do I know what is the PR for my site?

Thank's all in advance,
Mark

miracle welcome and PR is page rank defined by Google. It is a numerical representation of the relative "ranking" of a page compared to all of the web pages in Googles index - not a specific keyword or anything :)
When you hear someone talking about a PR5 and wanting to trade - run the other way :) People that use PR to base decisions on linking on dont have a very good grasp of Google and how it works - they are looking at the Google toolbar that can be downloaded at Google, and it has a little green bar that tells you the PR of any page.

Nowadays it really is pretty meaningless although PR is among a little over 100 things Google uses to rank a web page in the search results - hope that helps :)
