Got more traffic but lost my PR (huh?)

    Ok, I'm a bit confused in all this.

    I have more traffic coming to my page now. Arround 100 visitors a day which isn't bad for a new site I think, though I'm working on improving that.

    What puzzles me is that my index page was Google PR 1 (not much but something) while I was building the site and first launched it. I thought after the April update I'd have a higher PR but suddenly everything is at ZERO.

    How can I figure out what happened? What I did wrong? Or WTF :confused: happened?

    thanks in advance

    what is your website?

    I have the opposite problem. My PR is 3, but I don't get 100 real visitors a day. More like 30.

    PR goes off a lot more than visitors...backlinks...and who you link to...are a key factor as well...

    I don't think there was a PR update in April. Everyone is saying there is going to be PR update, and they Think it will be in April. I think Google updated backlinks, but not pr. Pr is usually updated every few months.
