Google Page Rank Update Fun

Posted on March 4th, 2008 as Site News

PR PumpIt looks like Google decided to do another round of page rank updates. It looks like it started around February 27th. I was excited to hear the new because the last update was done the first week of January and my blog was too new to get an update.

I am very please to say that my page rank went from a PR0 to PR2. I went to multiple sites checking it because I was in shock, I did not think I would get a raise in page rank so quickly. I know page rank is not as important as it used to be but I will take it anyways. It does make me feel better after looking at my traffic yesterday. It made me feel like hard work does pay off.

Make sure to check you sites and see if you got any increase in page rank.

    Congrats dude, I have also had a PR update to 2 on one of my sites, it made me want to give it a few fresh pages.
    For some obsure reason it was the only site I own that I had abandoned so I am a bit at a loss at what you need to have a PR raise.
    I mean yep it might be because it has many backlinks but it gets about 3 visits a month as I had a back up failure last year and all content has gone from it, now it’s about 5 pages with a pr 2! oh well.. whatever.

    Well done. I got to a PR4 from zero, but thats what I was expecting as it was where my old Blogspot blog was before I moved to my new Wordpress one.

    PR has me confused too. I don’t understand how some sites get a bump them a site that does better doesn’t, it makes no sense. Thats sucks about loosing most of your content well hey at least you have pr2.

    I have heard how moving from blogspot to wordpress can have that affect. I do not see why they do that to you. I guess thats why more people are looking at crawl rate then rage rank now.

    But of course..
    I thought it was funny as heck. Especially since I’ve been making reference to ‘Page Wanking’ as my haha there. Your photo was absolutely perfect. :-)

    My blog also got a PR of 1 very quickly. A few weeks later, is was taken away again. Now, after a few months of blogging, I’m at PR2 so I’m very happy.

    Olivier: SOmetimes, when tollbars are being updated (like SEO for Firefox addon) PR will fluctuate, showing PR when there is none for real. So I’m guessing that your PR of 1 may have been due to something of that nature..PR is determined then changes are made again in a few months..I don’t believe you would see PR1 then shortly later, lose it.

    Congrats on the PR2 btw. A couple of moths from now, hopefully that will go up too. :-)

    Bud..You rock. How have you been? I hope you don’t mind that I commented here about this..I have a poor habit of being nosey. (eek)
