Is this happening to anybody else? I am beggining to worry...
Any imput is apprecited.
I haven't had a fresh date next to my listing in about 4 months!
Can anyone explain this?
TIA
A PR6 site has no fresh date next to the listing for four months? You think that's normal?
Seems even more bizarre to see that when checking the backlinks in google for this site it only shows one link! And that link is a pr=0 lol. I know this site has about 1000 links most above PR4
Google is a joke.
When was the last PR update? - For me it's been like this for a few months.
The last backlink update was on monday, but I'm not sure if the PR were updated, too. But the last I'm aware of was about 3 weeks ago.
But I think you won't realize every PR update because the toolbar scale is from 0-10 in steps of 1, which gives 11 chances, with big distances between each other the higher the PR is.
chris007 This is also happenening to one of my more solid sites.
At first i thought it was a flag that google was going to drop the site the next update but it seems to have made through brandy okay.
It hasn't lost any of its positions in the serps yet but its pecular that its the only one in the serps not getting freshdated nor has the cache been updated for 2 weeks.
i even moved it onto another host but google still wont touch it.
I am hoping its a glich.
One site is somewhat dubious in its content, and could plausibly have been banned from Google, if they were so inclined. The other site is about a clean as they come; no spam, no dodgy content, excellent link and theming structure. There would be no justification for removal of this site from Google AFAIK.
I would have expected them to simply keep one copy of the original content and remove any duplicate pages.
I think that this is what happened to me a couple or more weeks ago. I now get a "200 OK" when I do a robots.txt check on both www and -www versions of my domain. Does this not suggest that they are seeing two versions of my site? Anyway my info is that it could be caused by an inbound link to [mydomain.com...] (-www).
Does anyone out there know of any quick way of finding out who has created this link?
The front page, PR6, isn't cached, but it does have recorded back links. There are over 90,000 pages from the site indexed and cached, but the front page isn't one of them (!).
I can only assume that this is a penalty and it just hasn't filtered all the way down yet.
If this is the case then Google may be correct in NOT assuming that they are the same site. However, would it not be fair to assume that ...
IF site_content at domain.com = site content at www.domain.com
THEN domain.com = www.domain.com
ELSE IF site_content at domain.com <> site_content at www.domain.com
THEN domain.com <> www.domain.com
ENDIF
There, I wrote the code! :-} (Don't laugh - it's been a while!)
Incidentally, I have now successfully installed a 301 on my site. Does anyone have any information on how long it takes for Google to catch up with this? My site has PR5 and it is in DMOZ. Also, is there anything else that can be done to speed the process?
