Google is misusing it's Power

    I don't understand Google's Page Ranking system. I mean after such a long time Google PR was updated and my my blog http://www.craze4tech.com got PR4. That was till yesterday. Today I checked my PR and it was 0. Wat is this?
    People have got so much expectation with Google and just look at Google. It's misusing it's power. It's not updating the PR in fixed interval and
    some domain which are parked have got high PR. Google is a disgrace and it's PR shouldn't be given much of priority.

    Its pr is probally getting updated. Also, why should everyone stop using google just because your domain was negatively affected?

    Unless you're selling links I wouldn't worry to much about your PR.

    Google invented PR, this is their own system, no one forces you or anyone else to use it. I do not see that as a misuse of Power. Also you may want to know that recently there is a PR updates, PRs may be swinging up and down, you may see it return to 4 in a few days time, who knows?

    did you have quality inbound links before, or mostly directories. Google updates every now and then, and known directories often get a lower input to pr

    If you are selling links, then that would explain it.

    igot one site which went from PR2 to PR0 and one crappy subdomain which went to PR3 fro PR0

    still doesnt make any difference to your SERPs thoug in my opinion

    only webmasters seem interested in it to be honest
    i guess its comparable to having nike trainers int he 80's

    makes you look cool but you still have a perm:eek:

    "Personally, I'd concentrate more on your Google ranking rather than Google PR"

    The average internet searcher and google user doesn't know about PR...What counts is the rankings you achieve and the traffic you get from it. If you are in the link selling business then you will be losing ultimately...

    Page Rank is useless. Care about your Alexa rank instead!

    I seriously don't think Alexa rank is that much use too :( . When selling links at least Page Rank does help for smaller publishers like us.

    But, Alexa shows a better view than Google. No-one [not even google] understands PageRank.

    Yup, well i am sure in the near future there would be a better tool i think both PR and alexa are preety useless. Just focus on traffic that all you need to do. :)

    If we knew actually how the page rank of google is organized, then SEO will be useless as we would know how to get a PR1 website. Everybody will try to get the first place and there will be a great trouble. But it is true that we do not know properly how the google works. So try to upgrade your website. Do not think that if you do not upgrade your website, other people will take rest. They will upgrade their website. Technique of SEO may be changed after sometime. So be careful, watch what your competitors are upgrading and upgrade your sice regularly.

    its not google who is doing wrong.
    you get the pr by getting lot of backlinks on your sites by doing 2way or 3 way just to sell link from your sites.

    pr actually means lot of favours from other sites if you actually deserve that.

    hey guys dont say page rank is useless if it is useless then why whole internet community is crazy about it . A person may be wrong but not whole community. And rajit there might be a reason for giving you pr 0 might be you linking to some illegal website or there might be some fault on behalf of google algorithmatic function. google is still showing 874 links to your website it might be more look in websmasterstools from google check your outgoing links and try to remove bad links.

    I think the izearank is way better than google or alexa (that is if you have a blog of course). This is because all page views are counted towords your rank which is really a true reflection. The only problem with izearank is that they are fairly new and are still in beta which can present the odd problem here and there.

    If you have no idea what I am on about then visit the following link: http://izearanks.com/
