pr 6.9?

[ignatz]

Hi I have a quick question: During the April Google updates, my site was dancing between (the toolbar) PR6 and PR7. After the updates calmed down it went back to PR6.

Does this mean I'm close to a PR7? At the moment the site is only 5 pages but I'm working on a *big* update. I'm hoping after launch to get to the PR7 range. What do you think? Am I close?

If you get sometimes PR6 and sometimes PR7, it may mean that you site is somewhere between 6.9 and 7.1. However, updating your site is not going to increase your PR. Only getting new inbound links can do that.

congrats anyway :)

on the April update they were very generous IMO. A LOT of sites gained an extra PR point. They all all went down one notch. I think they tried something different and deciding to stop it.

Interesting... if that's the case I could be farther away from PR7 than I thought. /Me goes back to work ;)

Nothing to do with generous. Google took the Directory link of its PR10 main page. Naturally this imapacted the Directory PR across the board and Dmoz's too (since it links from every page). This consequently negatively effected a lot of quality sites while helping the link farming piffle peddlers that could never be in the Directory.

steveb,
the PR went up one month and back to where it was before the next. The DMOZ link was removed well before the upgrade....if I recall correctly.

dmoz does not = quality. not anymore. Way too corrupt. and way under staffed.

I dont know this for sure but how I guess how far up the pr scale I am is to look at the pr of my pages 1 link removed from the home page.If I have a www.mydomain.com a pr7 and my www.mydomain.com/pageI is a pr7 then provided all pr is evenly distributed I reckon I am close to a pr8.If page1 is a pr 6 then I am only a moderate pr7.
Same with pr6 index pages.if you have a high pr6 then your pages 1 removed maybe pr6 as well.
Of course I am only guessing.:)
