Google PageRank Update Underway

Yes, an other Google PageRank update is underway. For example DigitalPoint.com has some data centers reporting a PageRank of 8, when it is currently at a PageRank on 7. Check the DigitalPoint's pagerank at this tool.

The data centers with the new PR at this point in time are:
DC: 66.102.7.99
DC: 66.102.7.104
DC: 66.102.7.147

As far as SEO, does this really matter? Again, the visible PR in that toolbar does not mean as much as it did 4 years ago.

You can also see our forums jumping up from a PR4 to a PR6.

Finally!!! I was put into the sandbox on one of my sites about 3 months ago, and have been sitting on a nasty PR0 since then. I knew I had been out of the SB for about 3 weeks now because I started ranking again for certain queries. I check that site and it looks like they have given me a PR3, which is not what it was before I was SBoxed, but it is nice to see what I already knew confirmed.

The interesting thing is that the links I gathered before the SB are still carrying weight in my query results, but they are not being applied to the PR. Only the links I have gathered in the last few weeks are being used.

 

It seems to be only older sites updating - from checking my sites against the different DCs, it appears that my 'older, established' sites and domains are all moving while my newer sites are all staying at PR0.

This is strange to me as my article site at http://www.free-journal-articles.com has much higher-quality backlink data than any of my other sites, yet is staying at a PR0.

 

I noticed the same thing. All my newer sites are still PR0.

 

I have got PR4 now... So happy to see that pld green bar... increasing for me too...

 

So in your experience if you see a different PR than you had before, then that will be the new one? My site was PR3 and now there are PR6's floating around at the tool mentioned in the above post. They're not staying put -- particular servers will flip-flop from PR3 to PR6 and back.

Is Google toying with me or will it definitely settle at PR6 after all is said and done?

 

i don't know how how the PR works, google still put me in PR1

 

I suffer from the same. An old website had a PR of three, and it’s been up for years although I didn’t do any marketing at all.

My new blog, although only a month old, has PR 0, but I’ve done a lot of work and have gotten a lot of links back to it via articles, web directories and so on. Very strange!

pr update what a difficult thing. google help pls . still 0 still 0 .

 

Pagerank is very important for some issues, but it should not be the only thing that site owners focus on. Because a website has lots of other features than PR. Nowadays a new update is coming and webmasters' love of PR is seen very clearly.

 

waiting when users will write about me... need to add more... submitted to Google 3 months ago, still 50000 pages indexed - I have more than 1,500,000!!! 250ms average response time, but Google still crawls a page each few minutes, not seconds...

 

To Albert, sometimes you don't need to do anything. Google's target is a natural PR distribution, maybe some website with good pagerank is linking to you without your knowledge

 

I agree, I looked up my website a feww days ago on google and there are people from all over the place writing reviews for my site. I like that !

Albert - just keep your focus on links and content. Your real PR is probably going up dynamically even without the toolbar update. So real PR is what affects your rankings and thats where the value is, right?

Update has come and gone ! It's good to see google is doing a good job of ranking sites. I am still not comfortable with their algorithm.

 

how often does google update it's PR?

 

I have got PR3 now... but i have a directory inside which has PR4

hi, i am really excited for my web site new page rank. i can't wait too much. but still in doubt wheather its true or not ? page rank updation thing. ummm lets see.

http://www.coolseller.co.uk

thanks,

 

Here is a tool http://www.pagerank-monitor.com/ that will crawl your site and show pagerank and summary for up to 2000 pages. It's a nice way to monitor pagerank changes. Last change on my site was one week ago, so something is going on.

 

I wonder when is the next pagerank update. Heard it was suppose to be at the end of July. I'm waiting like forever.

 

Most of the SEO blogs, downplay the value of Google Page Rank saying it is out of date by the time it is published. However, given that there are so many unknowns in the world of SEO, I would say it is a great to have a measure to at least give you an indication as to the success of otherwise of your SEO efforts. Therefore, my interest in the next Google PR update. At the time of writing, it has been 120 days since the last PR update and the blogisphere seems to have gone quite on predicting when the next update will happen. Does anyone have any thoughts on what is going on and when the next PR update will happen?

The PR update is happening, but remember that it can take 2-3 weeks for complete indexing. I still await my own updates.

 

new updates can come anytime and webmasters' love of PR is seen very clearly. but for me i hope google ged rid of TBPR

 

Any one know of any future pagerank predictor service? There used to be a few that worked but they stopped working somehow...

 

Is page rank still largely based on inbound links?

Nick
http://www.3cx.com

 

I take the point that page rank has little or no bearing on success but it a least indicates how well you are developing inbound links.

 

I have 3 websites there has been no changes in PR of any of my sites since last 4 months. Moreover as far as I know, all PR with N/A goes PR0 after every update. But it has not been so for me. Therefore seems no PR update for me.

 

As of now there has not been a Toolbar PR export for 138 days. The longest time between toolbar PR exports recorded in the below Page Rank Export List was 122 days (Oct 19/2005 to Feb 18/2006). What's going on?

 

M7 blog is 6 - 7 months old now, is this considered new? My page rank has stayed the same since the last update several months ago..

 

there have been updates to the Pagerank if you want more info you can see this at www.googlebugs.com

 

Looking forward to the next pagerank update, my website is new but has been rapidly building backlinks, curious to see if I get a nice PR boost or if Google SB's me for too many backlinks.

Today is Jan 03, 2008, when was the last PR update and when should the next one be?

Is it every 3 months sends out a PR update?

 

I dot the same experience. Previously on pr5 now pr2

 

When will be come the google next PR update. Other seo companies said that Google PR update only come 1-2 times in a year. Is it true?

 

Is page rank still largely based on inbound links?

 

My understanding of it is that Google Update PR regularly, however they only publish PR once in a while and when they do the PR is already outdated. Published PRs I think tend to run around 3-4 months old. Last update I have was between 2/28/08 and 3/8/08.

 

Like you said, clearly we are due another PR update. From the novarossi guys!

 

I'm so happy my site is went from page rank 0 to 4. My hard works is paying off.

 

I'm having Page Rank problems, my toolbar shows gray, but in the past it has always been a 3. Does this mean I'm not in google anymore? My domain is http://www.mytampahomestore.com

Thanks for any info

I've noticed some competing sites have had a PR change recently, my domain is http://www.effortlesshr.com and we are still a 0 and have been a 0 even though the site has been live for a few months. Any comments on this behavior?

 

Aaron....

I checked out your page and sent some eMail to the main eMail address listed under contact...

 

we are waiting PR updates as soon as possible :)

 

does anyone know when the stupid PR update is supposed to happen ??

 

I'm still at PR0, and I've been live since March. I've got a decent number of backlinks... any advice?

Hi,

Pagerank in almost constantly updated, according to what I've read. How Google delivers the search results is someting being always updated and no every three months or so.
If you write good and unique content on your website/blog on a regular basis, you'll see it moving up the search results.
So, the pagerank is there, what happens is that Google displays it once in a while.
Concentrate on the quality and you'll move up.
Good luck.

 

How clever you are Shan. This is about pagerank update and not positions. You need to know where to place links and thus pagerank update is really important from this perspective.

 

i have 3 websites and all of them the last 2-3 days are moving in search results..hope it is a new Google Pagerank update

 

The site linked to in this post is ab out useless.

 

Hi,

We want a better pagerank as a way to gain visitors - there are many ways to gain visitors - and with so much competition, one of the best ways is to write good content with great quality.
Keeping an updated blog/website, or both, is a great way to gain search engine results.
Write about what you like and write on a regular basis.

Have a nice week,

José

 

does anyone know when the stupid PR update is supposed to happen ??

 

Not sure it's just old sites updating. I've got a domain I registered in April and it's now pr5 ;)

d

 

My web directory main page is still pr4, but category pages went to PR0-2 after july update :(

 

Anyone know when was the last pagerank update, as of August08. Also David, how did you get a Pagerank of 5 in only 3 months of having a new website? Any input appreciated.

 

My site http://www.onlineperfectgifts.net is not updating its meta tags after changing them in the Google search and cache. So tell me the way to regularly crawl my site in the Google main index.

 

I too experienced some of my friends blog which had lost its PR. But i still have my PR2 site www.ssecganesh.blogspot.com safer. Can anyone guess when is the next PR update going to be??

 

I have 3 websites that our company designed 4 months ago, Now today on 28th sep 2008 i noticed 2 of them have PR with 0 to PR1 and PR3 after this update which came around 28th sep 2008. OUR SEO TEAM IS WORKING FINE. CHECK OUT THIS ONE - www.caisc.co.in

 

I don't how this PR thing from Google works, my website server was down for three full months and before that my website had a PR of 1. For full 3 months my website wasn't available, when it was available back in August, I saw it had a PR of 3. Today, after the recent pagerank update it has become 0. In these last 2 months, I have done alot of quality link building for my site.

 

If you have been adding links to your website and it has gone from PR3 to PR0 maybe you have accidentally linked to a link farm. check the PRs of the sites that you link to and remove any potentially bad links.

One of my newer sites http://www.carhirefaroairport.com/ now has PR3, I have no idea why it has a higher PR than my other site which has as much content and more incoming links.

 

I am not sure of exact date, but there was a Pr update after September and 2 of my websites have got PR4 and other new sites have got PR 3.

People doing link exchange in wrong way would be worst hit, since I saw a site of my competitor and also of an old client getting PR0.

 

It's been like 2 years and still not pr for my site. I have 500 plus external links and nothing to show for it. I think google's pr is broken.

 

I have got PR3 but i have a directory inside which has PR4. Hope to see it go up

http://www.advocatekhoj.com/

 

Can you please tell me the approx time frame when the next PR update is going to happen?

 

maybe the end of this month :)

 

It already happens.
Sites that depended on links exchange, suffer badly.

 

I think google is broken.

 

But how much does the pagerank matter?
May be google is also considering other factors like bounce rate.

 

In late August I started a new blog on blogspot, and by the 3rd week of September it had a page rank of 3. At the beginning of Oct, I changed it over to a custom domain name and therefore it lost its page rank.
Its Dec 10 and nre domain has page rank 0. Hopefully they will update the Page rank soon.
Lesson? If you change your domain name you lose your PR, at least until Google updates rankings again.

 

Important or not, it's always good to see a good PR on your website. Gives a lot of satisfaction to see your hard work getting rewarded. I think another PR update is underway this week as can see some of my pages changing their PR status.

 

Any idea about the next PR update? My blog's PR seems to have dropped to 0 'cause I changed the template. :|

 

I do not know if Google updates the pagerank, but I already has over 1 years with a PR4, every time Google does not put it more difficult to attract visitors to our site, Google wants all the web traffic for them, is not just be left to compete and I am trying to get by with Google Adsense.Pero really earn a pittance if you have it 5 to attract more visitors.

Greetings.

 

Being in Montreal, And offering SEO sevice. We see alot of web sites go from 0-3 or 4 in less then 6 months: It all about who links to you.

Google does not update pageranks like before every 3 months considering the last update was 4 months ago,now generally updates individual sites, to be honest no one knows whats going on with pagerank update anymore

 

I hope and expecting a pagerank update sometimes late october we wait and see

 

Yes either end of october or beginning of november a general pagerank update is expected

 

Today google has updated PR. http://www.sem-infotech.com- 2 to 3 PR.

Hi Everybody,
Here I built a Site which gives Today's information , a word for a day, a famous quote,Live Cricket Score Card and as well as give the all information about the web by just linking the all Top websites for each segment like Music,Wallpapers,Chatting,blogging,....etc...
So friends keep in tough with my friends for all the updates of the websites and other...

 

I think Google Updates its pagerank process around every two to three months....In 2009 Google update Pagerank in October last and then December last...and Google may update next PR in Feb or March
