PR Dissapeared, Your Thoughts?

    Hello,

    What are some of the reasons for a well established website to go from a PR4 to a PR0 with no negative flux in back links?

    SERPS remain the same as well.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.


    Thank You,
    -Tim

    Submit your site to:
    - article directories
    - directories
    - social bookmarking sites without "nofollow"
    - more

    to generate backlinks and get back the PR.

    The reason is called Google :) They just changed many things in the way their Search engine works.

    3 of my clients have been slapped with the latest PR changes:

    one site has gone from a PR3 to a PR0 in a week. It's not been touched for a couple of years so it's nothing he's done. It's an old domain too so maybe Google discounts this factor now.

    2 others from a PR2 to PR0 also not been touched so Google has definitely changed something in the Google Force.

    The PR is strong in this one OBE 1.

    My personal site has gone 0 to 3 even though I didn't tried to get quality backlinks.

    Guys, backlinks are not already the most important factor for high ranking, didn't you get it yet?! I am sick of reading some posts when people advise to buy links and submit to directories. The good natural traffic from social and media sites is now #1 on Google's list.

    there cvould be a few possibilities. Google refine algorithm to reflect changing realities in underlying value of the links.. if not... it could be something u did on your end on your website like introduce payperblog service etc...
