Greetings members, After last Page Rank ( PR) update some of our sites PR increase from NA to Pr 3 and Pr 4. After 1 month ( we normally know PR update after 6 months minimum) some of our sites PR reduce 1. Like the site which had PR 4 now Pr 3 Can you help me to understand why this happening ? I am not able to understand the reason. Thanks in advance.
Well, people can make only assumptions about why it dropped down. Google knows the best as they have changed it. However my recommendation for now will be that you try to get some solid backlinks for your website(s) and hopefully you'll notice a positive change in PR. Hope that helps. Sarah
I have also seen increasing and suddenly decreasing Page Rank of several websites but the reason only Google knows.
I wouldn't be concerned with PR unless you are pimping out your links. Try focusing on your keyword ranking results and more importantly relevant niche traffic - in the end isn't that what we all optimize for anyways?
@ctrlfreak yes i agree with you - at the end traffic and more revenue matters, but sometimes some questions; like i asked; need to know so that easy to explain other members in group. @lifeplayer thanks for the information that there is no such fixed time period for PR update. This makes more sense. I had wrong perception. I also know PR is not a very big factor for online success but when you work for clients some clients like to care for PR only (despite explanation and evedence) so it always good to keep update in various aspects. Thanks everyone for your comments. Appreciated !
No one can say for sure or certain when the next update will be or how frequently the algo is updated. We can only keep guessing.
