Strange loss of PR | Need help

Discussion in 'Google' started by Toon-c, Mar 6, 2010.

    Hi ..

    one of my websites was PR3 2 or three days back .. hundreds of indexed pages in the website were PR2 and PR1 ..

    The domain wasn't dropped or something, I registered it since the beginning and built backlinks naturally (and the backlinks still there) ..

    But two days ago it showed PR0 .. I didn't link to any website or asked someone to link to me since a while now ..

    the SERP is ok, the traffic is the same, but the PR dropped ..

    I can't figure it out .. need your help.

    2 of my sites went to PR0 from PR3 1 week ago as well, I can't see any reason for that.

    You've just been punished for selling links - that's basically it.

    It's only reversible by time.

    Links to Weight Loss Hints, Tile Installation Tips and DIY Help don't do you any good - so I honestly do hope you sold them, and at least made some money. ;-)

    Are you using the google toolbar? The google toolbar isn't accurate all it does is display a snapshot of a pages rank at one point in time.

    Hey it is for short period if you really didn't do anything seriously wrong. One of my friends had the similar problem with his tech blog. He neither sold any links but soon after a week, his pr was restored to the original. Looks as if google will roll out pr update soon :)

    hehehe, the only reason I can see on your site right now is at the footer with two contradictory words saying : Partner Sites :D
    Thatz where some of us get penalised, because we start selling links on our sites. However if the people who have visited you for the links have come to you, because of traffic, then its okay, dont remove the links. PR is not so important after all. You will get more visitors asking for links on your site, if you have a decent traffic.

    Not important? More and more when I purchase from a site or accept as fact information I read on a site-- I check the site's PR. For whatever reason PR is important-- and the many discussions prove it.

    Q...

    If you are selling links or even worse doing a link exchange.."you link to me and I link to you" then you will receive a penalty. But who is going to be involved in those type tactics.We are in the year 2010 and those tactics have been frowned upon for years. Get natural links, or links that are not part or the traditional link exchange... or don't get links at all.
