Page rank: no longer being passed to internal pages?

Or just a glitch?

I was just scouting through my existing sites for a judicious place for a link and I noticed that many pages are displaying a page rank of 0; it seems the pages affected are those which are not linked to from other sites. Those pages did previously have PR which had obviously trickled down from the pages linked externally.

It could be that Google has just not yet assigned rank to them. I'm dealing with the same problem, but am assuming it is nothing more than a delay in Google assigning internal PRs.

No, the "missing" PR is on pages which did definitely have PR, such as a contact page linked from every other page on the site, but from nowhere else.

seeing the same thing here on an 6 month old site. It had pr of 2 on all internal pages then disappeared about a month ago.

Did you redevlop the navigation at any point?
I am seeing old pages still on the server but with no link via my home page navigation array 0 pr - and showing supplemental now.

I thought supplemental was for pages not there anymore - not pages removed from the navigation array - but there you go - you learn something new every day.

i must have inadvertantly stopped Googlebot from accessig this page somehow and it's just guessing it's gone because no external site links to it.

Three or so months ago I noticed my software was serving directory index pages in three possible variants (/directory, /directory/ and /directory/index.html) so I modified it to serve /directory/index.html as the default and 301 redirect the other variants. However I don't believe this is the problem; Google seems to have caught up with the changes during the last PR update, and a directory with a strong external link to example.com/directory/ shows PR for example.com/directory/index.html, while a similar directory with no external links shows no PR.

I'm beginning to think this is just some kind of glitch, quel surprise, as the phenomenon doesn't seem widespread and I've found at least one page with no external links still showing page rank.

Reading the recent PR threads it seems that must have been a glitch prior to an update; as of today the PR is back where it was, and some newer pages have PR.

I'd still be more excited by more frequent SERPs updates, it seems the Googlebot is getting lethargic.
