LOL BIG PINK TEXT DOES NOT MAKE YOU RIGHT. IF anchor text is THE KEY, how do you explain away that there is NO difference between posting anchor text links for promotional reasons and posting anchor text links for a Google Bomb. Do you not understand that Google is dead set against using ANY...

Sorry mate, but your stats are wrong. In August I had 712 visits and served 5773 pages. In Sept 652 visits and 5098 pages.

Actually I am reporting what my EVIDENCE has shown. Couldn't be truer. If the OP wants to and can rank his sites without link building, then more power to him/her. However, that does not mean that links don't count anymore. If they didn't then Adobe Acrobat Reader's download page would not...

Not true. When Google remove the PR tool bar they also said "We've been telling people for a long time that they shouldn't focus on PageRank so much; many site owners seem to think it's the most important metric for them to track, which is simply not true. We removed it because we felt it...

Josh, where are you getting your link stats? What do you think governs PR?

Right on m8 right on. I have bolded what I feel are your salient points and replied in a contrasting color. Right on. best Reg

They do this now. The Google system uses a form of LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing) to compare and evaluate not only the words on the page but the relationship of the words to one another. This is one of the things that was done to the long tail in the Mayday update. Instead of allowing long...

Josh, What is PageRank if it is not links?

Buddy, my clients are one happy bunch. A real happy bunch. If you cant argue intelligently and provide proof it is best you just fade away. I am not saying you don't make money. What I am saying is that you have little concept of how that money is made. If you think that links affect SERPs...

From Google support in their webmaster central, The higher the Pr the more often the visits. Personal tracking shows PR1 site with once a month and PR4 sites, daily.

By all means retire this if you cannot give some concrete examples of building links to improve SERPs. Some folks just don't want understand or change. Saying linking doesn't affect SERPs can affect their incomes. Some folks just go along with what amounts to urban legends. Step back and...

Dude, do your own research. Google started off using PR as a SERPs indexing factor and then started reducing its importance as link building escalated to position improving schemes rather than being the organic factor pictured. If you want to see how many times Google has announced tweaks to...

Thanks for the heads up on the 404s. When I added a new article to the page my software changed all the links to relative and not absolute. The reason that my pages are not using keywords in the file names is that, due to the amount of onpage SEO that I do, I do not want to get an "over SEO"...

Seems like name calling is pretty standard around here when you do not understand (or agree with) what is being said. Ya Google changes their algos big time. It does not look like you have caught up to Caffeine and Mayday yet. So you are saying that in this case, if the onpage SEO is...
