PR vs. SERP! Can Better PR Sites Gain No SERP?
Many webmasters are confused and mix up the real differences between Google Page Rank (PR) and Search Engine Result Position (SERP). They believe that the PageRank is directly equivalent to the Search Rankings. But after doing some researches and discovering important facts about PR and SERP, I saw that I should find an answer to the frequently asked questions; Can Better PR Sites Gain No SERP? And Can Lower PR Sites Gain Better SERP? I want to reveal the fact that both (PR & SERP) are completely different, Page Rank is only one of the many factors that are included in the SERP algorithm.
SERP includes many other important factors in addition to PR such as content relevancy, freshness, keywords in domain names when it comes to ranking of a page.
On the contrary, the only factor that determines the Page Rank value is the incoming links that point to a certain page (Inbound links) These links are extremely valuable especially if they contain relevant content.
Hence having a high Page Rank does not guarantee a good SERP at all, and it is OK to for a page that has a Page Rank of 4 to receive NO Search Engine Traffic. But this doesn’t mean that PR is not important, on the contrary, PR is very important to attract quality inbound links and therefore achieve a good SERP.
Since Page Rank is only part of the whole SERP algorithm, a last advice for all webmasters that you should always aim for a high Search Engine Result Position (SERP) rather than high Page Rank (PR).
