Pageranking issue

If anyone has experienced this?

[scollinge]

My website was up and running around 8/1/03, since then my website has been picked up (is registered) in just about all the search engines. About 3 days ago I finally had a google rank. It was 3/10 ranking. It lasted for about 2 days and no my google ranking is 0 or non-existent. Has anyone had this happen to them? Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks

I've seen the same thing with a couple of sites built recently. No PR until a day or so ago. Solid white hat sites displayed PR4 yesterday and back to white out conditions today. Must be tweaking things again. Sure do miss all that green :)

Hello,

From the day one my site was launched, it has link swaps. the site is live sine 50 days or so. I have lots of link swaps and each swap has PR more than 5.

My site is yet to get a PR, For a couple of days recently, the site was showing a PR, but all of a sudden today, the PR has disappeared and it shows PR. Looks like some changes done on Google's end.

Going by the latest Google behaviour, how many days or months does it take to index my site and allote a PR value. The entire site is static driven and its pure content.Google has been crawling my site for last 50 days alleast twice a week. twice deepcrawl.

However, i should mention, that inbetween, i changed the structure of my site after which google did a deep crawl once. I have not deleted the pages in old structure, to make sure not to have 404 errors when i get clicks from google.

I am also getting clicks and traffic from google, though PR is not alloted.

Any feedback appreciated.

Cheers

Note : I did read a few threads here already more or less discussing topics similiar to this.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld scollinge,

In general give the little green toolbar time to stabilise.

Even then it can be weeks that it will show no Pagerank, whilst things are still OK, as the pages can be found and properly ranked with Google searches.

In the days of the dance, a new site could go up and down, in and out of the index for up to three months. Perhaps this is still true.

Page rank is calculated by an iterative process and during the first iteration, it has been suggested that Google makes a few guesses that may be wildly wrong.

The display of Page Rank by the toolbar is unreliable (to say the least).

Kaled.

PS
When stating a date, generally give the name of the month. 8/1/2003 means 1st August 2003 to Americans and 8th Jan 2003 to much of the rest of the world.

Okay, the PR is again back today after disappearing for a couple of days. Not sure, how long this will stay as there will lot of changes in the initial changes by google algo.

I would like to how will google consider subdomains as? does it take it as a link from a seperate domain?

Thanks

Could it be that sometimes you were looking at domain.com and other times at www.domain.com?

Sometimes Google takes a while to realize they are the same thing.

Don't worry about it too much. Just keep getting links, and adding content. I have a few sites showing PR0 and getting great rankings & traffic, some consistently over time.

Yes, but a problem arises if they really have low PR. Then Googlebot sees them as low priority, grabs only a small proportion of pages per week, and it can take ages for Google to discover and index new pages.

For some sites, it may be already too late to add this year's Christmas pages! :)
