Re: Fun with SEO and Google
I was going to just leave a comment on Kara’s post: Fun with SEO and Google. However, my comment got a little big so I figured I might as well make a whole new post.Â

Sometimes I wonder if Google is personally picking out favorites.
Did you sneak in my head at one point without me knowing? I know I never said that to you but dang girl, you took the words right out of my mind! Seriously, I had been thinking the same thing. While, I’m sure it’s not true, you can’t deny that it feels that way!
I’m the same way with Page Rank! I KNOW it means nothing and I teach that it means nothing but you can’t help but look. Too often I threaten to uninstall the Google toolbar! It’s a good thing I enjoy some of the other features or it would be gone. All it does is drive me insane!
I too got squished during the last Google Twist and my PR dropped. It had dropped here a while ago from a 5 to a 4 and now I’m down to a 3! YES! A 3!! But, get this … (another way to show PR means didly) my traffic has increased! (A lot even!) So, this explains what?? This shows the importance of the little green bar how?Â
But I’m with you, I’m so tired of trying to figure out Google that I’m done with it. Seriously, done! Like you said, stick with what works naturally and go with it. I’m a little behind on my link structuring but … I can work on that without a problem.
Wanna know how I really feel about Google?? LOL!

Old post I know, but I think I finally figured out why there was a such a huge drop in everyone’s PR. Want to hear it? DUH of course you do LOL.
I *think* it’s because certain types of backlinks were kicked out. If you notice your backward links took a serious hit in the last major update….mostly because the “link page” links were kicked out. Since PR never did make much of a difference to start with, our awesome content won out on rankings when craptastic sites with poor incoming links fell.
