who cares about the green bar so glad I stopped wasting my time on this YEARS ago and started focusing on my actual site
There was a Panda update rolled out early in October but the effect was not as massive as the previous Panda updates. You'll find that some of your sites are now enjoying higher page rank while there are unlucky ones who lost their rank altogether.
Nice your directory increased, however Google has always stated not to worry too much about PR but to focus on quality content and authority backlinks and the PR will follow
Yeah i have lot of increase in PR in many updates But in my personal openion google will soon again update PR becasue google is PR 9 now
I have seen some updation in terms of PR for my new blog site, but not updation in my old site. Hope Google has started to give due importance to brand new websites
Google and Facebook both down to PR9, so the updates are eminent. PR is useless once your site is older. But for new sites, it gives that extra authority before visitors!
