There the a popular forum, run by people claiming to be SEO experts called cre8asite (http://www.cre8asiteforums.com). They have recently changed their forum software from phpbb to invision. The funny thing is, is that their google PR has gone from 5 to zero. And they seem to think it is not an issue. So Is a high google PR important of not.

The only reason the length of domain registration would come into play is it supposedly lets Google know that you are creating a site for the long run instead of a quick spam site. Of course you could be creating a spam site so length of registration just becomes another of the small factors they might use for SE rankings.

I would have never guessed that length of domain name registration is a factor in page rank. Not sure if that makes any sense or not.

The point of adding links to your sites from your blog isn’t necessarily to boost PR, but to boost natural traffic. You can’t rely on SE traffic since that fluctuates, but actively promoting your sites other sites is good way to keep traffic consisten. And believe me all those damn PR 6/7 sites on WIN, Inc. aren’t from external sites. I guess now though they will have a tougher time.

For almost every point mentioned… there is a thershold of abuse…
After x amount of sibling links, your sites will actually be losing relevance – especially your larger sites.

Whatever you do, use common sense and don’t abuse the search engines. If something tells you that what your doing is immoral, you probably are. However, not everyone has morals.

I only use sibling links (as I call them) to inform Google of a new site that needs to be spidered. Anything beyond that I feel is spam and will be regarded as such.

Great post Darren!

PFJ – I agree that in my experience its not completely useless – but I’ve noticed that links between my sites are much less powerful than they once were and this is what I suspect they are saying. In the past they were quite powerful – but now they are far less powerful.

Linking from one of your sites to another of your own sites is not useless. That is BS. It isn’t given asmuch “weight”.

Man, this really makes me want to stop caring about SEO. I’m not sure if that’s Google’s intention, but it’s just too many variables to worry about.
