PR Update Or Dance ?

PR Update Or Dance ?

Lagest PR down

apple.com PR10-->9
nytimes.com PR10-->8
phpbb.com PR8-->6
avivadirectory PR6-->4
alivedirector PR6-->4

 

Well it should be called as the PR Downgrade

 

I'd call this discounting backlinks falling in some criteria .. may be obviously looking paid links according to Google?

 

At lest something changed

 

yeah...this is a good thing. something changed. Now, we know that PR didn't died.

 

My site is still the same, maybe because I've never had paid links. Waiting for it to go up (hopefully)

 

Hello,
Yes, something is happening in Google, there are too many changes in the index, as I can see

 

i have read it somewhere that when PR update begins to happen, all PR first go down and the next day, start going up, even my pr2 website and PR0 website have lost their PR, and PR checkers on the net aren't workin properly,; i think the day we have all been waiting for has arived, everyone gd luck with your PR's

 

Surely its not a PR dance

For me, its some real big changes in the Big G's PR calculation algorithm thats all causing all this havoc.....

 

nytimes.com PR10-->8

No. NY Times was nvver a 10. It has been 8 for ages.

 

rightly said

Most of the PR8/PR7 sites has lost ranking and PR.

 

Yep we should change name from pr update to pr downgrade
But one thing which i dont understood in this period from april was only several downgrades.I mean from pr10 to pr9 to pr8 to pr6 and next...
I was excepting phpbb will lose their rank,but to pr6 that is realy suprise to me.

 

I think it's because phpBB is an open source project, it's not likely they would buy links. This proves my point of view even more: sites lose PR because of the latest algorithm to devalue purchased links.

 

it could be considered as dance if google gave them a 0 and then give them the same PR as i see it they aint getting they are PR back.

As i see it directories where probably had all the same high backlinks and by devaluate that high sites it took them all down since i dont think that they are so many PR8-PR10 that you can hide your links without google notice...

 

Atleast as mentioned above we now know that PR didnt die. Good thing too

 

Isn't there already a thread about this ? Why make another one

 

What is interesting is that most of the posts are about drop in PR. I am yet to hear if anyone is seeing any PR on pages that were created after the last PR update. So it does not seem that it is a PR update; just a status change for some.

 

it looks that most of the big web sites are having less pr.

but my pr has stayed the same. it's pr 6

 

Yes, I agree. Some big name sites dug their PR in this last update....

 

I had one site go from 4 to 2 and a blog from 5 to 3 - its the update as far as I know... both sites of course over the last few months have been growing and have had a tons of new links from all over.

My other sites haven't seen the update yet..
