I’ve had sites with high PR that don’t get much traffic, while others with low PR get a lot. PR is only a small fraction of how you rank.
If you have a high PR but only a few pages you won’t do to good. Unique content and lot’s of it helps bring out the benefit from a high pagerank. How many backlinks and how relevant your content is to the search query and the age of your site, is even more important than Pagerank.
A blog is one of the most important things you can do to put on a website. Sometimes a blog is adequate BY ITSELF. So why is a blog such a big deal?
Blogs have become a niche market in the internet. And with that niche they now have their own search engines such as Technorati, they have their own blog directories and blog rating sites, and they have forum communities for bloggers to talk to each other and exchange links with. Without a blog you don’t have access to this huge traffic potential!
Lets not forget SERP’s you can get from the massive keywords you can put in your blog posts that will hit the search engines. Forums and Directories can do that too, but you can get this and all the above by just having a blog. Blogging is the fad of the internet. If you want lots of traffic to a website, you have to go with the flow and the flow is with blogging right now.
I recommend you get the wordpress software from wordpress.org and get your own domain. I’ve done that with my other sites, it turns out this site got a good ranking in the beginning so I didn’t want to touch it.
