Google followed up on their July Toolbar Pagerank export with a minor burp today, affecting mainly internal pages from what we can see, seemingly reducing the supposed snapshot period further still, we now have white PR zer0s on this blog as recently as 11th August, and several pages past our previous end May cutoff point have gone PR3.
11 August is not even 2 weeks ago. Other than that, one client’s site has become another suspicious PR 3 (links don’t justify it) and not much else to report.
Much bleating from SEO civilian casualties on forums, dull. ..People if you had a PR3 with no backlinks, it was never real, so losing it shouldn’t make you cry.
And if you suddenly wake up and find you have a PR4 from Zero with no work, don’t go out and start trying to sell links, its not real either, it will correct itself next time round.

Hi Igor.
yes, we are well past the days of being able to trust the toolbar. I wouldn’t worry about the supposed reduction, you’ll know from your backlinks roughly what your PR should be (if you use the right tool
)

No changes for us apart from a few inner pages moving to white either. just a little blip it would seem?
Toolbar Pagerank is for SEO civilians only. serious seo warriors don’t give it a second thought.
