Google has updated 3rd pagerank for this year or not? I am in doubt because i didn't got any update of my website.
I've few websites some of them are old 2-6 years and some of them new 3-12 months, I noticed many times PR went up and down for my new websites during the past month and just before 2 days ago but for my old websites they are difference in PR, may be your sites facing the same situation if they are old ones.
many of the website are nt updated with page rank... To rank your website on google first page generate the organic traffic via forum posting, directory submision,blog commenting,socail bookmark sharing site.. forum posting and directory submission is most imp as it helps in incresing traffic and creating link.. do blog commenting on sites similar to your website niche.. make your content fresh and unique...above all a blooger need patience and consistence in his work.. Happy blogging..hope it helps you..
