Traffic before page rank any day. Especially since I run an e-commerce business. Generally, traffic = money, page rank is... well, not really useful. Yup, got to agree.

Interesting enough, my stats are the other way around and I have just never bothered about SEO.

27.26% Direct Traffic
14.31% Referring Sites
58.41% Search Engines

I’m not saying don’t bother, SEO is important and once I redesign my sites, they will be SEO friendly and I will specifically be building incoming links – just don’t lose sight of the content itself :)

anyway………… traffic over page rank.. particularly from a long term monetizing point of view.

Check out my stats: (direct) ((none)) 214,999 60.50% google (organic) 68,201 19.19% yahoo (organic) 13,297 3.74% The rest are sites linking in, so that means 77% of my traffic comes from people that have bookmarked my site or have linked to it. If developers focused a bit more on content instead of going crazy over SEO, Google wouldn't have so much power over traffic IMO. I agree with Daniel. Check out my stats:

People get all freaked out about this and that for SEO and end up losing sight that it;s about having a functional and interesting website and ultimately you want to attract and keep people there. A great site does that. Focus on your content and building something interesting and then people will link to you anyway, thus page rank and traffic going up. it’s all about the traffic.

My profits went down. I focused on getting traffic using other methods instead of depending solely on Google. My traffic came back and profits are up and I'm still on the last pages of search results :) 11+ million page views in the last 30 days and rising...
