Site PR went from 7 to 0..seen this before?

    We had a site with a PR of 7 that just went to 0 overnight. All the sub-pages had PR of 5, they also went to 0. It was very strong in the SERPs and is now gone completely.

    Has anyone seen this before, if so what may have been the cause, and could the PR "come back".

    We also had sites dissapear with the last burbon update but they have all come back to their original position and have maintained thier PR.

    This site is a subdomain, the main .com also lost its rank (we don't own the main level domain) is this something that was passed along, ie. have they done something to shoot themselves in the foot and inflicted us with the same wound?

    It had 19,000 links in msn. I guess it depends on how fast they were "aquired".

    The owners of the main domain just added several hundred if not thousand domains to their raid server many of which point to this domain. Could this have effected us that much? The content dupe is minor and is actually used across about a dozen other sites not uncommon in the industry.

    Links in G just went to 0 also. This sounds like a manual G penalization. Sound right to you guys?

    Yeah. I dunno if its manual, but it looks like the word from google is that they are taking their toys and going home.

    subdomain spam? wasn't google talking about that at one of the search engine conferences?

    deja vu.. when one side of the brain reacts a fraction of a second later than the other.

    Or.. maybe in a past life you read that message on dp ;)

    I just noticed the same thing with Bluegeckonetwork.com. Same things happening

    PR0
    No Pages Indexed

    and I get your standard message

    Sorry, no information is available for the URL "www.bluegeckonetwork.com"
    Find web pages from the site "www.bluegeckonetwork.com"
    Find web pages that contain the term "www.bluegeckonetwork.com"


    Could this be a possible glitch? Because BGN has done nothing wrong except link to a banned network partner that the guy was going to take off after noticing it.
