I'm not one to talk about PageRank but my PR3 site went to 0 today - did anything happen today or is my toolbar just fucked?
No PR update change yet Just some penalizations for some suspecting site Just saw some site dropped from PR4 to PR2
One popup code and 3 cpm banners (since when were they classed as trying to cheat PageRank)? I've officially joined the (I hate Google for trying to rule the web) gang!
I guess I'll give up link exchange, directory submissions and only use adsense to monetize my site from now on. That's what this recent change has told me.
I wouldn't go that far. It mybe a glitch in the system that gets fixed over the next week. Give it a little time before making a final decision.
Link exchange can be a cause .. because i had the same experience. but for the directory submission ,, this is new for me. are you sure that the directory submissions is one the causes of pr drop /?
I don't think so also. The recent Google updates was still new. Predict around 1 month more before next update.
