: The American economy today is facing lots of crisis and the people that are average earners only are being very much affected. That’s why providing financial options to the people is a very good step for them to cope up in the present economic situation. Financial option like short-term installment loan could help a person in times that he urgently need money. Consumers must seek first for information about the best financial option that could help them.

Page Rank is the Ultimate Measure of Online Influence

Piercemattiepr,
Oct 06, 2008
: I semi disagree. Using blogs as an example, I know several well known and highly influential beauty and fashion blogs who previously held a page rank of 6. When Google last did it's major shake up a few months ago and stated that affiliate links needed to have a "no follow" tag in the code, these blogs suddenly became a 3. They had been using affiliate links in their posts without no follow tags. To any advertiser, marketer or PR person coming upon these blogs for the first time after the Page Rank striping, a 3 is mediocre and it would be assumed that they may not have much of an influence in the blogosphere--and they would be mistaken. Of course, you also have those bloggers who have been around a while that may be jumping off of the Blogger.com bandwagon and establishing their own domains. Automatically they start from scratch with page rank even if their traffic came with them.

However, I do agree that it is something that takes time to build and is earned and I do think page rank is part of a well rounded look at the quality of a site.

What do you think of the splogs out there that have gained page rank despite being entirely stolen content?

:
@karenswim This is exactly what I was discussing with someone the other day! Influence is more spread out and not solely contained to one location for a specific "influencer." The conversations that take place may be fragmented because of this, but it doesn't make them or the person initiating the conversation any less important or influential due to the page rank being higher or lower for a particular profile/page.
