    Hi,
    I am so sad. This domain is established and has tons of backlinks (3,000+). I've done nothing illegal.
    But today, mysteriously, my PR dropped from 4 to 0.
    Can anyone tell me why/how this happened?
    Thanks in advance:mad:

    Yeah, it happens at each update. It will most likely come back.

    PR is just lipstick on a pig. While you need it if you sell links, it doesn't do anything to drive traffic.

    Wow you act like PR means anything... optimise your site instead of whining about the PR drop. If you sell links on your site than I agree that it's a big problem, but if you don't sell links, than I don't get it why you bitch about PR drop.

    My PR went from 3 to 1. It changes day to day, it just depends on what google thinks.

    I am afraid I'm still very new when it comes to marketing etc., but does PR still count for anything? Reading around the web I see mixed views on this.

    I wouldn't even suggest that you sell links, just optimize for SEO and keep it moving along.
