A lifetime, I would say.... Serious now, nobody knows for sure. Many rumors are being spread lately, but the fact is that if you are after PR, you should do one thing only. Build backlinks. Constantly. Get as many as you can and keep them. Maybe you lost this update maybe you didn't. Your reward will come with the next one for sure.
Nobodies perfect, I'm a nobody, therefore I am perfect. Like people have said keep building backlinks, if you missed this PR update no problems just build and build to the next update.
Nope. I am who I am. Nobody is the person who can tell you how google's algo exactly works, and the exact date the next PR update will take place...
...when everyone will get a reward for what he did until then. And "then" will come eventually. 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 1 year later....
unless visible TBPR is actually important to you, like you are a directory owner , anytime is a good time to get links, cos they are picked up an reckoned with by all the search engines continously, not just google.
when counting on time, i hope i can get more time before the next pr updated. Normally for new site, to get PR1-PR3 it will take not much time as PR above 3. However, it depend on how good your site on backlink and popularity. Im not expert on PR issues however take care of your site as good as you can, feed them with good contents, get a "healthy" backlink, introduce them to "bookmarking", "article" ..etc..
lol if people have an answer for that ... than they would be able to tell when is the next pr update. ... !!!
Backlnks update within next 7 days--PR snapshot --within next 15 days. So u have 13 days more to buy links
I made a thread about it on friday. Anytime now is the deadline. Dont guess google though, they may do it a month later this time.
From my own experience i can say that you can get a pretty good page rank for even a new site if you buy a couple of decent text links from pr 5 or 6 sites. This can get expensive, but it worth it. It's better to budget a few hundred dollars for directory submission and text links when starting a new site.
Since the Last PR update was on April there is a good three months for the next update The update would be generally on July last week/August First Week!
dont forget the PR snapshot is taken around 3-4 weeks earlier than the export to the datacentres.....
