Here are updated statistics of directory PageRank, encompassing Google’s latest PR update. The stats were compiled from our database of 12,000 directories at web-directories.ws. Stats as of April 2009 More information can be found on our directory blog posting. I welcome your analysis, either here or on the blog.
Very impressive stats. More directories went up in PR but less directories are getting PR3+. Must be changes to the algorithm.
This is incredible, actually i have noticed that most of the aged directories have gone up with PR, and new ones are struggling for even PR3.
Candianeh thanks for this info. can you also tell us how many free directories you have in your list..
That's a good suggestion but I don't feel the data is statistically significant enough to warrant that much attention. I go on spurts and add hundreds of directories from a wide range of sources. The information is not added in a random manner. Sometimes a lot of PR directories get added while other times a lot of PR0 directories get added. I feel the information is useful to get a long-term view of directories but not to look at detailed comparisons between periods.
