Andy Beard has been tracking some interesting pagerank data on several popular sites. His findings are below. There seem to have been a few pagerank updates close together dealing blows to several sites and confusing pagerankings across different Google datacenters.
For what it’s worth, my blog went back to a PR 5 and my main domain is still at a PR 4. Hey, I’ll take whatever I can get. Traffic and rankings all remain the same for me across the board, so for me, PR going up a notch didn’t do a darn thing. Well, if I want to sell advertising, even with this post claiming no more traffic than before, I’d still get advertisers because of their PR lust.
I’d rather make much more selling my own products anyway. In case you think Google is evil, note that I found them slapping themselves by dropping YouTube.com down to a PR 3!
