Google PageRank update right now...

It's not paranoia if everyone's out to get you!

 

Hmmmm, I'm stumped.

My main 5 star site has been stuck at 5 forever - hoped it would move up.

BUT my new blog - launched in March shows a PR4 on some datacenters and a PR 5 on others. When I looked at my 5 star blog PR yesterday on the toolbar it was a 5. So don't know if it's being downgraded to a 4 which makes no sense or maybe it was a 4 previously and is just switching to 5.

 

Blarg! Didn't get a 7.

 

Each next step is 10 times harder than the last!

 

Looks like many people did well. My new site went from 0 to 4 straight away which surprised me. Only 2 months old. Does anybody have any figures that show percentage of websites with each PR?

eg PR 10 (0.01%), PR 9 (0.02%), PR 8 (1%), etc...

 

I don't think I have ever seen one. But from a mathematical standpoint PR10's are .0000008% of the total websites....... Give or take.

 

This is my first PR update... heh. How long does it take? The datacenters are still not showing all new #'s... is that normal? (well the first PR update when I know what a PR update is. Heh.)

 

A look here http://www.thisisouryear.com/?p=predict shows that for several sites I'm monitoring the new PR is not showing up on 10 of the 18 data centers it checks. Usually this is finished within 24 hours of the beginning of the update.

 

I know three web masters who had PR7 until the update before last. They stayed PR6 again. I had to work probably three times harder to get a new site to 6 than I did getting another one there a year ago. 7 seems to be really tough these days.

 

i think anything after 4 and you really have to earn it now.

 

Agreed.

I thought that this time I had a real good shot at a low 6. Nope, stayed 5 again. But, when I look at my BLs of 4 and higher, the majority are less than 6 months old.

So, if the theory that BLs no longer pass full PR until the link has aged is correct, maybe I'll score my 6 next time.

The good news for me is that all of my main navigation pages (small site only about 8 of them) went from 4 to 5. It is nice to see even pages 3 clicks away getting 3's and 4's.

/*tom*/

BTW: anyone know when the next update will be?

(had to be the first to post that one!)

 

My PR was updated too..I went from a PR 0 to a PR 4 all of a sudden...well not bad at all

 

Anyone know why sometimes my site shows a 4 (from 0) then it shows nothing 0 in the toolbar...like right now. Some datacenters are showing a 4, some are still at 0. Anyone have the same experiences?

Thanks

Because we are in the middle of an update some datacenters are showing your old PR and some your new. Just give it a few days to settle down.

 

Thank you for the answer, I was starting to think Google was teasing me.

a couple of sig links boosts pr from 0-3 and BL's from 0-65.

Cant complain at all...

 

ya, looks like i am going from 4 > 5

 

Let's hope so. One of the data centers keeps flipping back from 5, the old level, and 6, the, hopefully, new one. Hard to get excited until it's all done. Never seen any kind of rollback, however, but it makes one nervous.

 

i still get nothing

 

My site jumped from a PR5 to a PR7 and BL's jumped to 3220. Hope the update will affect all datacenters over the next few days.
