3 PR changes in less than two weeks?

    Is that normal for a site?

    My PR went from 0-3, then from 3-0, then back from 0-3.

    I have no idea if they were switching algorithms or what. I also submitted to thousands of directories, so I thought I was being punished because apparently google doesn't support directory submissions, however they reinstated my old PR.

    Any explanation for this?

    Sometimes around the time of a mass PR update your PR will fluctuate. It takes time for your final PR to be calculated based on the changing PR of all of your links.

    PR didn't change three times. It changed once. It updated on Sep 27. Then the rank reverted back to the old page rank that it was before the update. Now it's back at where it's supposed to be.

    They are always changing the algo.. :p

    Directories have nothing to do with why your site is constantly changing PR
    and google removed that line from "guidelines" as they see no need to send
    their competitor yahoo revenue. :)

    Yes, the DCs havent settled yet and im sure you will get whatever PR
    you deserve soon enough. ;) Though i wouldnt stress PR unless your selling it
    as then im sure you will get penalized or de-indexed if you do.:D

    I guess the dcs have settled to their new values. This might be the final PR in this update. Mine down to 2 then up to 4 then, now, down to 2, so 2 be it.

    I had pr on 4 of my sites change today, down then up again. I guess the update is still going on. I only noticed because one of my sites went from 3 to 4 a few days ago, then this morning it was down to zero (!!), and then this evening when I checked it's back up to 4.

    Strange!

    More people told about their PR change. But it is not happen on my site or my blog as well.
    PR0, PR1, PR2 and PR3 still remain the same after update last month.
