While I have seen many blog sites lose quite a bit in PR I have seen many others go up. I imagine this is simply the case of bloggers losing incoming links since the last PR updates which took place some time ago.

Well, they were selling paid reviews and paid links. Google warned repeatedly that a penalty will come. So the measure doesn't surprise me.

That's possible. If you are selling links, you have a big channces that your PR will drop.

Google controls the internets. Amen.

Maybe they tried to sell PR links and G penalized that.

RewardsKingdom · 11-24-2007, 02:16 PM

Ouch, that's a big drop

suggest you check the time of "cache:your site"
If G still cache site very often then you shall not too worry about

Well.......It looks that Google has treated strictly in terms of relevancy and against sites or blogs involved in selling or purchasing so lots of sites and blogs PR has been dropped. In my case one of my Blog PR increased from N/A to 3
