Skipping PR On Export?

[Mr Exotic]

What's the point in obsessing over google PR?

But to answer your question, yes I have seen some of my domains go from a 0 to a 2 and a 1 to a 3. I have even have had a handful of my free sites go from a 0 to a 4.

1. The point is higher search engine rankings.

2. I have also seen 0-4 but never 0-5 or 3-5 or 4-6.

PR has nothing whatsoever to do with your SE rankings - which is why when people ask to trade based on PR we usually tell them to stuff it

Mine jumped from 3-6. I thought it was a fluke and wouldn't last, but somehow it has. I have no real idea why it jumped.

I wish it was that simple.

Very cool SG. Thanks, now I know it's possible. I'd be happy with 4-6, how'd you pull that off?

LOL! If I had a clue I'd do it on all of my domains The only theory I can come up with is that it has to do with inbound one-way links from SSI's on AVS Sites, which have inbound one-way links from high PR AVS link lists. If that's true though, you should see a boost since you are on my SSI's

The only other thing is that my site is updated every day, around midnight, after a ritual sacrifice, while listening to devil music.
But everyone does that

I am anxiously awaiting the next export even though it won't be the actual current PR, but hey... it looks cool.

So, you are telling me that Google has been telling lies all this time?

I don't know why they would make something like that up, maybe you could fill me in on that? I borrowed the text below from Google themselves.

"Important, high-quality sites receive a higher PageRank, which Google remembers each time it conducts a search. Of course, important pages mean nothing to you if they don't match your query. So, Google combines PageRank with sophisticated text-matching techniques to find pages that are both important and relevant to your search. Google goes far beyond the number of times a term appears on a page and examines all aspects of the page's content (and the content of the pages linking to it) to determine if it's a good match for your query."

Also, just to be clear on my part, I am not saying that it's all about PR, but I do believe very strongly that it plays a very big role.

I respect your opinion, but I do not agree with it regarding this.
