New PageRank update

Add to Delicious Digg this links to this post -

All sites have been updated.

But as I keep saying to our clients (but I still get comments such as: oh, that's a shame we have released the site a bit too late, the update doesn't show anything for our site), don't focus on it!

It is just a "marketing" tool, to convince people that your site "knows" what it "talks about". It shows that other site are pointing their visitors to your site. It basically means that your site gets good references from other sites.

Pagerank is used in the google algorithm, but th value displayed is not a real time one. So...having a pagerank null doesn't mean that your site will have to wait until the next update before taking off. It only means that you will have to wait until the next update to get a snapshot of what the PageRank was.

Pagerank is a bit like a star you are watching in the sky. because of light speed limitation (google have got their own limitations ...), you only see a snapshot of what the star WAS, not what the star actually IS. But it still makes people dream, or even speculate on the future...a bit like pageRank really! But at the end of the day, a star is only a star, and a pageRank is only a pageRank.
