I'm working on the content. I have a blog on a subdomain which is just PR3 right now. The blog of course is more diverse with the content. I wrote a post about once a week and put some time into what I write. I'm giving it a year (started in Jan) of posting once a week to see what effect it has. Just from the few posts that have done well, it has been worthwhile so far.

I'd say that SEO and page rank are good things to have but they're not going to be sole (or majority) drivers of traffic for everyone. So it's good to think about other forms of marketing too.

I had a period of time where I was very interested in SEO. Mostly because I thought I saw an easy path to more traffic and more sales. I put some time and effort in (keyword picking, optimizing parts of my site, blah blah) and saw some changes but nothing I'd consider too worthwhile. This led me to where I'm at now, focus on content and let the rest happen.
