As google have changed their ranking algorithm. Many of the sites & blogs plus forums have lost their rank could anybody please tell me what's the new way of ranking. Google should at least leave blogger to loose their rank as they earn few bucks of $ due to their PR but unfortunately they loose their PR & again they loose the contact from their advertisers.
It is a very good point you have raised. I believe that, same question is raised to everybody’s minds. None but Google knows the exact answer to this question but unfortunately this has never been disclosed. We all can assume but not sure. The back link concept is not trusted anymore now a days based on last 3 / 4 PR updates. What all I can assume, PR depends on below points. 01) Quality BL 02) Regular Updating of content 03) Good traffic 04) W3C based design pattern 05) .Gov or .edu based Domain BL 06) Quality and unique information 07) Domain age and expiry date 08) Proper way of using sitemap and Google Webmaster tools 09) Article and News BL 10) SEO Optimized 11) And finally site becomes useful for people and society NOT FOR GOOGLE ONLY. I will agree there are many points Google consider at PR but above point will remain on top. One think we all should understand that, you cannot expect google’s Algorithm can perfectly ascertain every sites, offcourse there will be some exception nearly 2% – 5% and that is way most of the SEO expert get confused.

I believe it still the quality and relevancy of links, links, and links. Updated and unique content also goes along with the package...
I think PR still depends on backlinks. The more backlinks you have, the better the PR will be. Quality and relevant backlinks worth much more.
BL means BackLinks and for getting quality backlinks check the second link in my signature. You can use this kind of high pageranked dofollow blog pages lists for quality backlinks
Has anyone ever considered that Google might judge your site by the time visitors spend on it? By the amount of direct traffic? I mean after all I don't find Goolge in Google... I go directly to it...
