    My blog, Pariah's Guild (www.pariahs-guild.com) was a PR 3, now it's a PR 0! How is that possible! Did I do something wrong? I'm still getting the same amout of traffic like before, so what's the deal?

    Selling links, link exchanges, link partners, etc. can get your PR adjusted to 0.

    PR has nothing to do with traffic.. it could be link selling or buying that caused the drop. Maybe an important site linking to yours took down the link? As far as I know there's no real update going on so its probably a penalty.

    When did it happen? Is there a PR change taking place or did you check in a PR checker online. The online ones sometimes don't work, so unless you see it in the toolbar, don't believe it.

    I checked it on my toolbar and it is zero so it must be a penalty

    I see you have a link exchange here - I presume 'link partners' means two-way link exchange

    http://pariahs-guild.com/our-partners/

    Seems harsh to flatten your PR just for that though

    K, here's what puzzles me, My Aexa Rank is 228,331, my Technorati rank is 276,569 (keep in mind that this is out of 8 million), but my blog is a PR 0! How will this affect my advertisers!

    already passed by the same experience in 2 sites .
    You traffic will stay the same , and the same for the indexed pages .

    Just to keep your site as it is ..and your pr will return in the next update..
    Just remove some souspecious links ( if you have )

    I'd be a bit nervous if I was a featured site and 'top 10 link exchanger' on the homepage of

    www. professionallinkbuilding. com/

    it's not very subtle...
