Do You Depend On Pagerank?

It’s been said before - that one should depend on pagerank so much because it does change overtime. Good if you constantly get an increase in pagerank, but we all know that’s not always the case. Of late, the news is that there has been another pagerank update. Already, an update happened early this year (January 5, I think) brought my ranking from 4 to 2 and the last one, which happened just last week, brought me down to nil (as you can see… teehee!).

Whatever happened to my pagerank isn’t something I think about. Afterall, I did change this blog. But it’s also because I am not dependent on pagerank for my earnings. Adsense alone does wonders for me. As far as I’m concerned the downturn of my rank isn’t a slap from Google but just something waiting to happen since I haven’t been intent in promoting this blog. I think I was only able to actively promote it once this month and that’s due to this social network I’m putting up.

Which brings me to another topic.. why are people dependent on pagerank anyway? There certainly are other sources of income from the internet than just reviews. I mean, Adsense and other ad serving programs does wonders for you (if you have more than one blog) and if you actively promote them, they will be able to pay enough.

So anyway, afterall the updates, are you still dependent on pagerank?

    I have to admit I was a bit fanatical about PageRank when mine was jumping up and down but not so much now.

    Now I have focus more on social networking and less on my PR. I just noticed this morning that one of my travel sites went from a PR2 to a PR1 but I didn’t even think of jumping out of my office window, this time.

    Note: my office window is only 4 feet off the ground but it’s the thought that counts.

    It took a good friend and client to give me some perspective on PR though or I would still be focusing on it.

    My thought process was telling me that all I needed to do to get the traffic I wanted was to keep increasing my PageRank.
