Looks like a page rank snapshot is rolling out. Showing several datacenters now giving my site a rank. I had a 0 since Feb...

After noticing today that a site just went down from PR5 to PR4, I looked at a brand new one that just went up the first week in March and it's showing PR3 on the homepage and also showing PR on interior pages.

For example?

Yes I am noticing a +1 on all my sites. Me wonders if it's just Google disabling the -1 thing it did a few PR updates ago.

If you can't see any PR anyplace, either update your toolbar or uninstall and re-install it.

Our main site went from pagerank 5 to 0 after we redesigned it a few months ago. Today it's still 0 but we are still indexed with over 85,500 pages showing in google. When we search site:domain.com

Another important site had a complete overhaul and went from pagerank 4 to 0 after we redesigned it and imported a new database of nearly 50,000 businesses. It's a business directory. Some of the rankings fluctuate from being #1 to #5 for a few weeks to not even being found today within the top 300. I stopped looking after 300. However, this site shows over 31,000 pages in google when we search site:domain.com.

Another of my domains on the first domain's same ip address has a page rank of 4.

I have another domain that simply says "account not active" on the home page and it has a page rank of 3.

I'm so confused. It looks like redesigning your site can get you penalized at least with pageranks. I NEED HELP.

Welcome to the forums, xealinc. Your questions go far beyond PR updates (which on their own do not affect ranking). You may find a lot of help in the Hot Topics section, which is always pinned to the top of this forum's index page.

In particular, it sounds like you may have issues related to changing your url structure - new page names, and so on. Also our Site Search can help you find related information about your redesigns.

friends, i like to know whether this pr decrease will affect SERPS ranking

A PR update is only an export of data to the toolbar. Any ranking changes due to shifts in PR were already happening -- because the "real" PR values were already being used in Google's calculations. Behind the scenes, Google is updating PR and other link-related factors continually, day-by-day-by-day,

The fact that Google eventually exports a more recnt "snapshot" of that data to the toolbar has no present time effect on ranking.

indias_next - if you mean the link: operator report, that's another "reporting-only" feature that has no effect on ranking. For more information, see the Hot Topics, which is always pinned to the top of this forum's index page.

I got raped this time....

PR4 to PR2 on index. +_+ no idea why.
subdirectories halved as well.

not happy.

Plus, seriously ridiculous sites, eg: one with flash doorway page and no text and blocked forums, shot to top of SERPs too.
#*$!.

Last time there was a PR shift we (like many other sites in our sector) dropped a point. Today we got that one point back again.

I know that they're not supposed to be connected, but, we seem to be doing better in the SERP's too.
