My pagerank has declined but my traffic has doubled from Google. Does pagerank really matter?
I find that writing relevant content for my users works.
Has anybody challenged Googles patent and will it stand up to challenge.
Surely if Pagerank really worked it would be completely commercialised by now and you could buy links from high rank pages.
Google will decline if it doesent get rid of crap results. At the moment though with their reliance on Adsense it might not be in their interest to penalise the 'AskJeeves' type adserver sites.
Maybe its time to publish a blacklist of sites that people can download to their browser that would work with Googles API to just not show these sites in the SERPs

Maybe Google might make the information collected about its chinese customers - sry users - with the legendary long-life google cookie. Anybody searching for Fa*** G*** from a chinese IP might expect a knock on the door from a secret policeman carrying not a search warrant but a google user search record.
(Google are rumoured to be negotiating a deal with the NSA to do just that with American user data.)
Personally I think it is a major mistake of Google to stop being a proper search engine in China and becoming a AOL style rubbish portal.
Obviously people in China will use searchengines and meta-search-engines that dont restrict thier searches as and when they find them.
Shame on you Google!!
