If my content page has an text ad that links to another site. Does that decrease my PR? Will it have any effect what position my content page comes up in Google's organic search results page?

And can I have Google AdSense ad on this same content page?

If you didn't nofollow the link, then theoretically it would decrease the PageRank passed to all other followed links. (I say theoretically because there are cases that indicate that this isn't true 100% of the time). Mind you, the amount that would be "leaked" would be marginal at best and shouldn't be of any significant concern.

Yes, you can use Google Adsense on the same content page.

Adam talking about PageRank and not criticising it once - is this possible?!

No and probably Not

I think that yes

i think if the other site is yours and it has a text link ad that links back to your site it will not decrease the pr but if there is no return link it will decrease the pr

We're back to the classic link exchange thing again then?

Just ignore this "advice" as it couldn't be any more wrong

Just make sure, you don't put so many links on your home page.

Webmaster guidelines from Google suggests not more than 100 links in total. [counting both internal+external]

It doesn't matter one bit!

Use as few or as many as you need without confusing your real visitors. If it gets too confusing that is the time to limit the number of links.
