I have been wondering about how that works with PR… do you know when Google updates it? Does the PR fluctuate between the toolbar updates or does it only change a few times a year?

LOL yes you’re right about that! =] I recently saw one of my websites that had no PR drive a ton of traffic and revenue, so I agree that PR is definitely overrated and traffic is what we should be aiming for. Anyway, PR in the toolbar is only updated a few times a year, so we never really know the true PR of a site.

Yes, too many people pagerank is currency, but I’d strongly advise against seeing pagerank as currency – as a currency, it’s losing value even faster than the pound!

interesting perspective on pagerank. it is considered by many to be the “currency” of the internet due to its far reaching influence. but i do tend to agree with you that it is somewhat overrated. what really should be the measuring stick to a site’s success is the relevant traffic it draws.
