Does Page Rank Equal Money?

Posted by Paul B | August 6, 2007 .

I was chatting to a mate of mine over the weekend about supplementing his income when this question cropped up. You see I reckon that if you can elevate any single website to a page rank of 7 then you should be able to make enough money from it to be setup comfortably for life. I can’t repeat what he said exactly but it rhymed with rollicks!

I have a habit of making things sound too simple but my reckoning on this one was easy. If I look back at my own websites over the last year and look at how much money they bring in then it goes something like this:-

  • Page Rank 3 Home Page - Averages around $4 a day
  • Page Rank 4 Home Page - Averages around $10 a day
  • Page Rank 5 Home Page - Averages around $50 a day

I’ve got quite a few websites spread over a lot of different topics and those seem to be fair averages of my income earners, some get a lot more traffic than others but that’s how my sites balance out. When you add to that the fact that JohnChow.com with a page rank of 6 is pulling in somewhere around the $400 a day mark then I don’t think it’s unreasonable to think that a website with Page Rank 7 should be making somewhere near $1000 a day for anybody with any clue on monetising websites. Of course with Page Rank you get the added bonus of a better search placement and chances are more traffic but just looking at Page Rank as a goal, do you think that getting a single website to PR7 would be enough? How about we all try and get themakemoneyonline.net to Page Rank 7 and I’ll be happy to share the answer!

    So this is all just speculation from you eh? Interesting. But I think the values should be higher for ranks 4-6.

    I’m only going from what I make and a rough estimate of what John makes from his one PR6 site. I agree though, you should be able to make much more from a PR5 based site. What do you think though, is one PR7 enough for a good living?
