[Cricket]

Past threads: July 2007 - August 2007 - September 2007

When will Google update?
I think it's started!
No it hasn't, it will be updated on...

Have a speculation about when Google will update?
Think the update has already started?

This is the thread for you. Any new threads speculating about the next PR update will be merged into this one.

Let the fun begin.

I think something is happening. My sites are seeing changes rapidly.

Can you please let us know what kind of changes do you see? I think G is pretty late with this PR update.

The only PR change I saw is in one of my sites, got PR4 to PR0

Greetings,

I have seen some changes in the SERP results, but not with actual PR.

There are some speculations that google is doing away with PR. I do not really believe this though. From other things I read, it is what their alogrithm is based upon.

I have a new website I just got completed. I really want to see the results as I am new to the SEO business

Sincerely,
Travis Walters

I haven't seen any changes in pr what so ever.

[lizza]

No change at all..

The PR update is like the Beaujolais nouveau wine, millions people are waiting for it LOL

[cldnails]

I noticed some people on other forums talking about seeing PR changes, but alas, I've seen none for my multiples of sites, ranging in age. I'm not too concerned about it, but it is neat to follow and watch the buzz build. As soon as it happens though, watch the link sale section of forums grow....!!!1!

[lastsmoke]

Google doesn't seem to care about the PR update any more. They like to update around an important date, It could be around the Christmas or new year if I had to guess.

[lutchi]

mine are stagnant.....and it's not stinking..not going up but down.

[lutchi]

i mean stinking now!

[froggybluesock]

I know quite a few people who have seen PR changes on their sites, but none of mine have so much as shivered.

[rankland]

I just went from a pr 4 to a pr 3

Sorry to hear it, but it looks like Google keep following the same tendency lowering values of most of the sites. Now it becomes harder to raise PR.

I was wondering if anyone raised PR within the last few month.

Have a great day,
Peter

I do not see any change in the PR on any Data Center.

Lowering of PR is because of the continuous increase in the size of the web.
If your site grows slower than the web, your share in the web of links reduces.

And many other major directories have gone down in PR, by 1 unit each.

I've raised my pr from 0 to a 3 :p

Changing PR can be due to Google updating algorithms, and it can also happen if a high profile link has dissapeared. Just make sure you're keeping up with link building and such.

[kaykays]

Nice find Sizzler_chetan. The same PR is across all DCs.

But are only directories PR updated or also other sites?
I have a new page which Google indexed on 10 Jul 2007.
It still has PR0, whereas it should be PR2-3.

[antcolony]

yes. pr update happening but no change my sites. i am waiting.
