    MOst of my sites went up.
    Some stayed the same.
    One which had the -50 -70 penalty has gone up form 4 - 5, but the subs are all 3. This used to be every page 5 (1away from index) in August.
    Serps still -50 though.
    I feel the snap shot for the export was taken some time ago.
    Maybe a month?

    PR is so so influenced by the design and number of pages of the site. Hence the template itself gets a high pr whilst the individul pages get zero.
    I used to build a few sites as frames. Useless for anything except a business card, but as they were technically a single webpage, they would all be 4 - 6 with little effort and few decent links. They had the appearance of about 10 pages though. No wonder Google got arsy!

    Yep, Ive got 20+ sites I check every few days, so far ONE of them has gone from PR N/A to PR0, despite having 27,000 links :( :(

    All other sites seem unaffected so far, so we must just be starting up in the update though.

    Of course!
    If you had a one page website then the PR does not cascade or drain to the other pages. Aand so on.

    1. Dropped links
    2. Adding more pages accessable from index or more internal or external links
    3. Infected juice

    The only way I use PR is for selling and buying text links

    Which has become PR's biggest flaw

    My main site went from pr4 to pr5! Several new sites went from nothing to PR4!!! They were only put of about 2 months ago with few links to them... I suspect the links from my main site are the main contributors...

    Internal pages have become PR3 yet the main page, which has loads of links pointing to it, stayed a PR2?

    Gone to 5th in the SERPS though from outside the top 10 so I'm happy.:D

    Noticed increase in backlinks, blog went from PR/NA to 0 - almost the identical blog last time, which ended up being almost completely deleted, gained a PR 4 last update... It was pretty sad to see it go!
