Google's 2007-Q3/Q4 PageRank (PR) Update

You should never depend on the reported Google backlinks, since that is just a small sample of all backlinks, and not even up to date. In short, use backlinks reported by another source, if you need to analyze the backlinks of a site. Yahoo! backlinks are a better indication, at least.

 

Come on google, don't let all these webmasters wait any longer. !

 

Just wondering, has there been any sort of official announcement on this?
Or even a whisper from someone who works with google or something.

 

Scored on about 15 pr 5 websites and currently have a pr0 site. I think it jumps to a PR4

 

The only backlinks count from google that I place any stock in is the number of backlinks reported in the sitemaps tool. I list all my sites in the sitemaps tool, even those that I don'ty have sitemaps for. You still get some good information without a sitemap.

 

Are you talking about search command "site:"
or the webmaster tools section in your google account?
1st will only show a sample sites linking to you
2nd all of them
I my self use yahoo to see all the links, works great

 

I haven't noticed any changes, but the one thing i have noticed is Google is spidering my site daily for the last week usually it happens every three days.

 

me too, and even the old supplemental pages are showing up in searches. PageRank tool basically unchanged, but indexing has improved

 

I have changes in one of my sites...Before a week a receive 30-40 clicks from Google now I receive about 500-600 clicks, but there are no changes in PR rating.

 

Yes, it was a PR9. It is showing 8 elsewhere, except on nifrou's tool. There, it shows some d/c's as 9. Nifrou has posted similar images for a url I am watching quite closely; checking within moments of his post, and with other tools, it was obvious that what he was posting was false.

Yes, I can see that your tool is showing the 9. I cannot reproduce those results elsewhere. I will stop short of saying you manipulated your tool for this one url, but perhaps you need to look into bugs... I do not trust your tool when a url shows something different, via more established tools built by trusted individuals.

Do you realize that it shows PR8 without the www, and there are no canonical issues with the domain? There is no way the site should show a 9 anywhere...

 

Oh bullcrap. I have a personal tool that allows me to check specific datacenters one at a time if I want, his values are completely made up. You know it as well as I do. Quit pretending to be nice to him, he doesn't deserve it.

Ok, fine.

 

Okay.

Nifrou, as long as your grammar and spelling are horrendous, no one will trust the tool. Without that, it screams unprofessional.

Damn, can't do it. Pointing out how to improve the site and perhaps improve trust is a nice thing to do...

Gee, thanks Mom.

 

Finally it looks Google is updating the Pagerank now after around 6 months

JohnChow went from 6 to Pagerank 5

what do you people think?

 

I thought this was BS but it looks like you are right.

 

Nothing on http://www.seocompany.ca/pagerank/page-rank-update-list.html yet

 

Actualy that cannot be page rank update since i only see sites losing page rank level instead getting it up.

 

During a PR update a lot of people experience weird PR drops until they properly propegate. Don't worry about it. Before the update usually backlinks drop, etc.

 

Is this the real thing this time?

 

NO - Matt cutts even said on his blog and I QUOTE!!!

"Don't expect an update any time soon "
