So, I have a homepage dofollow backlink on a PR8 site and on a PR9 site. I've had it on the PR8 for almost 2 weeks now, but the PR9 just got added today. I thought having this alone would bump my PR up? But i'm still a PR2, and the backlinks dont show up on google webmasters? Its been pinged too so should be picking it up after 2 weeks. Is there something I am missing? Any help here or information would be appreciated. Cheers Ross
I got them for doing a friend a favour. I just checked webmasters is picking the backlink up, but still only PR2. how often does google update this?
It takes a while for pr to update, I think it updates about every 3 months. The last update was about a week or two ago. Plus I don't think just two links will increase the pr, not matter how high.
No one who can verify that but what you have to do is to look for more links on high ranked sites and be patient abit
PR is not updated daily but it is updated 3-4 times a year. and I am sure that your links are from drop domains with spam content.. this can be a short-time bump for your website only.
As stated above, PR is a manual update done by Google at not-so-regular intervals. You may not get an update for several months. Quick note too; If you're new to buying links then procede with caution if someone offers you PR8/PR9 links for cheap prices. Those type of genuine links can go for in excess of $x,xxx per MONTH.

When you talk about PR, you gotta wait for the next PR update to see the change. The PR tool only update few time a year
PR9, nice find. Keep finding those high PR BL's, dont just rely on a couple of BL's. As for Pagerank, I check it on a weekly basis and usually find that after three weeks and depending on my BL's, my PR is what it should be PR3-PR4.
