About PR updates

[jignesh]

Hello,
Google had started PR updates as i got pr for some of my sites:grin: and i lost pr for some sites:embarrassed:

what about other ns members??

The new PR changes are widespread from what I have been reading.

Don't worry too much if your PR drops, rather look at your straffic numbers and rankings if you check those. I keep hearing that the traffic and rankings are NOT dropping.

It seems like this is just to discourage people from selling links.

My PR also dropped on some sites. But hoping to get it back in next update.

As for the SERPs it is all nice and good.

All of my sites PR went up, which I guess is nice to see the bar change, but that is about the only value I see of PR at this moment.

I noticed that anyone who ever sold links have lost PR on there sites, its as google has been watching the whole time at everyone.

I never could sell links on any of my sites, noone ever wanted to buy, so I guess that was a good thing on my part!

One of my sites went from a PR4 to a PR2. I just found out today. The problem is that there were no paid links, just a bunch of links to my other sites.

If this is what I think it is, I am being hurt because Google "thinks" they are paid links and they are not.

This Happened to me too. I think the algo thinks that they are paid ones

On one site I had some links to other sites and that sites might be buying links from some place else. But in that bunch I had my link to another site and its PR is dropping. I was exactly knowing from where my other site is getting the PR boost. And it was 100% relevant and 100% free as I was the owner of that first site.

Maybe they now don't want webmasters to link within their network of sites too.

This better reflects what is happening when there is a visible change in these three items. There is only an export not an update. The word update will be reserved for Algorithm Updates which will cause a change in the search engine rankings
