This seems very un-Google-like! I respect Google for much they have done and it’ll take me a little longer to let something like this tactic derail my opinions of them–but I surely hope they take this more seriously and avoid tainting their “don’t do evil” boyscout image.

I don’t care much about PR at all…certainly not on my own sites. I DO care very much about ranking in Google…as that is the difference between being seen and not being seen.

The only time I care about PR is if I am purchasing advertising (usually a text link) on a site. I want to know Google’s relative sense of value for the page…and that’s one indicator. Many pages don’t have a lot of traffic…so I need SOME sense that there is perceived value there.

But, as far as worrying about “passing link juice” and all that…nah. I’ve had sites rank #1 for their primary keyword phrase that were only a PR4. PR means little-to-nothing, in my view.

Do you honestly believe that this will in anyway affect Google’s status when you try to sell your site for ad revenue?

This battle has been going on for quite some time. There is the school that says that it is essential, and the other that says that it is not. I suspect that it depends on how much you depend on Google for your advertising revenue. The way I look at it is to have Google on your side will be a better option.

Does it matter whether the links you sell are no follow? In that way, the advertiser still get’s hits but you are not (in G’s eyes) manipulating PR.

I am a novice so expect to be shot down, was just a thought.
