I think content is not king. i found pages wich have only a 1 line of text with title and the rest only adsense... and are on first page of google search result

The answer is, in short, content is not king.

You make changes to the Google algorithm everyday? An amazing insight into the evolution rate of Google search change. Also as a stockholder of Google, it is really refreshing to have a company so "open to the public" about their business process, something I have never seen from Apple or Microsoft.

then content is still king but links are important as well , it is safe to say that a full synergy of these two parameters will result in better rankings...
