During the January 2011 PR update, i was very frustrated because I've expected my blog will reach PR2 or PR3 but sad to note it was glued at PR0. The minor updates happened during April did not affect my PR.
I heard a lot of websites and blogs have been affected by this Google Toolbar Pagerank update. Some websites gain PR while others have been affected adversely. Minus 1, 2 or the worst minus 3.
As stressed by Google, a blog's PR has no correlation to its ranking in search engine and the traffic it will receive. What's more important are the backlinks towards your site.
Learn some of the tips on how to increase Pagerank and apply it to your site so that there will be positive effects during the next PR update in 2011.
Can you make a wild guess when will be next Pagerank update for 2011? How are you affected by the latest PR update? Let us know in the comments.

ReplyDeleteI wanna ask you a questions since you are will verse about SEO and google than me, will copying news articles hurt our PR?
I've just started blogging last December of 2010. I wasn't really paying attention, and honestly, I am clueless about the importance of PageRank. I'm glad that my site: www.isp101.net is now PR3. Tnx for sharing, this article is really helpful! =)
ReplyDelete@alohagems: congrats to you and your blogs. I am not that acquainted about it. Honestly, this blog is combination of my different experiments about SEO. Copying articles will not directly harm your PR but it will definitely affect your ranking in search engine results page. In this blog, i have some articles copied from other blogs but i give credits to the source.

ReplyDeleteIn this recent Pagerank update for 2011, I also noticed that there's some improvements on the PR of my internal pages.
ReplyDeleteI individually checked some of my favorite posts and i found out they got PR1 and even PR2. I'm hoping that by the next PR update, I would see those pages at PR3 or even higher at my homepage to be at PR3 or PR4.
