For ecommerce sites, how many sites are going to tell their competitors how much they've made recently? Probably none, but they'd all love to know how much each of <b>their</b> competitors had made!!!

If it is an E commerce site, for example then the true measure would be the money it makes. News sites should be visitors and so on... Pagerank is over-rated and too difficult to directly control or even quantify (how much better is PR 5 over 4?).

PageRank does seem to be the be all and end all for some people and the advertising sites rank everything by it, I don't think it's a particularly good yardstick myself (nor Alexa Rank) - but I do think it's the only thing that some people have got. I've got analytics on this site, it's steady traffic, but I'm really not bothered - I just enjoy it when I get the interaction from others (not the spammers mind!) - that's my measurement!
