You've got great info on your site. I'm just starting up my blog site and in my research for optimizing my site for search engines, I stumble across "robot" in Google. Google tools advises to put a "robot.txt" file in the root folder of my site so that site crawlers know what to look at and what not to look at when on my site. I was just wondering, what are the pros and cons of such a file? Cheers, Wil Hi Lisa,

I am sure people will be driven crazier than ever. As google is not longer giving credits to directory submit, I hope to see more quality backlinks in google and hope more unique content based people will have excellent ranking better than before.. but it's true, it's time people stop worry about ranking, especially alexa which could be biased and man-based... because of toolbar... It's time people care how to generate more traffic than ranking :) nice article.. i have never cared at all about those rankings… sometimes i feel so strange that many ppl are so addicted about these rankings..

I've seen people become almost obsessive-compulsive over their PageRank or Alexa rating. But I think more important than that is (like you state in your article) providing quality content to your visitors. Even if a site has a horrible PageRank, people will still go to it if it has quality content (word of mouth marketing by your own visitors often results from quality content!). Nice article.

They would spend a ton of money on statistics - I think that you are right, don't obsess with rank - build a website that users need/enjoy - and you will get traffic - don't lose focus.

I have the Google toolbar on my browser now and it is somewhat discouraging to see the page rank of each site I visit and realize mine is so low in comparison. My Alexa score has also been dropping, even though my traffic is going up. It is a relief to know I don't have to spend much time focusing on these numbers. Thanks, Lisa!

I think this information is very important. I was paralysed for about two weeks using different free internet tools. The problem was that they showed different results and there were so many keywords to consider. I lost faith in my personal theme and couldn't find another niche at all. My personal theme where I feel strongly about, seemed to be saturated , but I had a lot of doubts if this really is the case at all, as there was not much qualified competition really, when I checked various high ranking websites on my theme. But I finally reached the point where I believed that no niche exist anymore at all for myself, because my theme seemed saturated and I lacked the skills to use other themes. But after a lot of confusion I finally returned to my personal theme and I think about buying SBI now and try to make the best I can to bring up a quality website on a subject where I feel strong about.
