So there is still hope for the post apocalyptic Google PR 0 massacre. IZEA is coming up with Real Ranks as a replacement to Google PR to measure a blog’s advertisement value. It is slated to up and running within 2 weeks. This is all good news but with a big number of posties blog value down to PR ZERO, I wonder if the advertisers will bite when there is no Google juice to go around.

The formula is relatively simple.
70% weighted towards visitors per day
20% weighted towards amount of ACTIVE inbound links per day
10% weighted towards pageviews per day

We are currently working on implementing RealRank inside of the PPP platform next week. The public site will be up within two weeks. I am excited to be able to finally provide bloggers and advertisers with a measuring stick that actually means something.
