Well, that statement is missing the point in a sense. I guess that all
depends on his client/s. An SEO for Dixons (if they have any), for example,
can quote high figures.
High PR and number of visitors are not correlated. I know a sites that have
an enormous number of visitors (10,000-100,000 a day) and a PR as low as 4.
Conversely, some pages of academic staff will have PR 6 and merely any
traffic.
