Google Page Rank vs. Alexa

PartyRiches has a ton of traffic everyday and an Alexa ranking of 38,591............yet a Google PR of 0........>My thoughts on both Alexa an Google.

Google PR isn't a measure of traffic; it's (in theory) a measurement of importance. It's only updated once a quarter or so nowadays. Should updated again really soon. You'll have PR then for sure, because you have links pointing to you, and that's what generates PR.

I just got updated to Google Page Rank 2. I guess thats a good start.

Maybe this link will be useful: http://www.msmobiles.com/news.php/3273.html

BTW - a search engine question: Does Google (and other engines) have a way to find if a link to a site is posted on a www accessible newsgroup or a forum such this one?
In other words, if I add something like that here: http://www.mysitethatdoesntexist.org - will google give me point for that or not?

I just got updated to PR-2 last night sometime.

In general, yes. Google will find your links in forum posts.

A lot of forums are implementing the rel=nofollow attribute on link tags so don't expect to get benefit from posting on forums or blog spamming. I'm sure there are plenty out there that haven't upgraded their code but I implemented the attribute on my forums.

I also have the rel=nofollow on some of my forums. Links still get picked up though that way, and a ton of webmasters have NOT updated their code to reflect that. Not that its a big deal, but alot of blogs get hit with this.

Also, the guy using EzBoard's to get to the top of google ranks is doing it too. Eventually it will kill EzBoard's serps . If its anyone here, great job tho.
