    Hey guys!
    My site used to be at a PR level of 6/10 and now it's gone down to 2/10!

    Do you know what might be the reason for something like this to happen?

    Thanks!
    Amigo

    I think Google is looking at content quality and quality of the back links. You may want to take a look at this, this is where I would begin.

    All the back links pointing to your site were like hit with a PR update as well. Which resulted in a PR downgrade. There are many factors. Try diversifying your links. Link diversity is a big deal.

    Exactly PR doesn't crap these days. PR is not the way to determine you sites effectiveness. Quality back links and quality content is where you should be focusing.

    Don't bother more about PR. Just keep your optimization ongoing. PR will improve automatically until the next update.

    Don't worry. At least you have a PR2 website. PR won't effect your traffic or anything.

    The site i'm talking about is Adsense-Exposure. The site is not new at all and it has tons of good quality content. That's why I really have no idea why on earth my PR went down to 2!! from 6!!! That's a big difference.

    Whats also strange is that I'm in third place in Google search!.

    I really don't get it. Does someone have a clue why this might have happened? or if there is something I could/should do to bring it back to 6??

    Thanks guys!

    Sorry to be the one to tell you, but Adsense-Exposure is a splog, and Google is cracking down on those.
