Page Rank update

[Shane]

Did anyone else notice their Google PR change within the last week or so?

My sites did pretty well, and a few that previously had no rank are now PR3. Still no PR4s, but I'm working on it.

That said, PR is more of an ego thing for me these days, as I don't notice any difference in my actual search rankings with changing PR. I haven't for years in fact.

mixed bag for me - few PR5s dropped to 4s but nice to see some new PR0's go up to 2's and 3's

I had 2 sites go from zero to PR2 and a few from 0 to PR1. I attributed part of the reason to age - all the domains (sites) passed the one year mark. I don't know how much time "live" on the internet contributes to page rank algorithms? - it seems to have some influence when you see names dropping at snapper that have less than 100 search volume, zero IBL's and still have PR 2 or 3.

Yeah did ok a few PR4/5 but these days PR isnt really a hot metric I follow more Domain Authority and Page Authority..

Page Rank (PR) is losing credibility daily.
Too easy to fiddle.
plus my HIGHEST earning site is pr0
and my pr4/pr3 sites often have some of the lowest CTR and CPC.
So has less relevance to determining ROI than the other metrics.

Agreed. I haven't looked at any of my website's PR for years now.
