Pagerank Update Sept 2008

So as predicted by Matt Cutts (and us over the last week on DP, and on here yesterday) overnight Big G did their PR update thing again, (coincidentally?) on the aniversary of their 10th birthday.

Google is ten years old today  how’s that for a ten year old eh? :)

Fairly uneventful for us, this blog came up to it’s rightful position of a 4,  - PR3 was always too low for it’s ranking power, and our main domain stayed at 5.

The PR prediction tool had been saying 6, but we did think that was maybe a little optimistic for a 10 month old site. Client-wise no real movement except for one blog integration project which again went up from a 3 to 4.

To us the most interesting part of PR updates is the movement on site’s inner pages, because it often gives you an idea of how effective your internal linking structures are, and what may need further work.

The least interesting part is the multiple lame ass threads on DP by muppets continually asking the same questions over and over, and even more irritiating than that are all the other “know-it-all-but-actually-know-nothings” answering them with their “its every 3 months” or “only Google knows” nonsense-answers, just writing something to up their postcounts.

It has been anywhere from 5 weeks to 4 months apart for this whole past year now, and after every main update there is a small correction in 3-6 weeks too.

All that can be accurately predicted now, is that the timings are completely unpredictable these days, so please, just shut your noise and wait and see..

we’re off to study the client portfolio in detail now, have a nice weekend all ;)

‘A luego amigos..

ah young Mr Johnston :) good to see you again too dude, look forward to getting it happening too. and congrats on your new PR5 too, now lets ‘ave it!!

until Saturday amigo.

Congratulations on your increased ranking. You deserve it. Predictors got it wrong again!! Am not looking at them again!

for your site, it was saying stay the same this end. it was saying up to 6 for our main domain and didn’t do so.

cant be right all the time can it?

Man to think I just launched my website, http://www.puredezigner.com back in the middle of July 2008. I remember reading about the PR updates that were taking place at the end of the July, that’s when I was thinking to myself, man 3-6 months before the next update. But when I check my Alexa stat this evening I noticed something else. I just now finally had an update to my PR, From PR0 to PR3! It’s a simple website based on CSS and XHTML validated web projects I have in my portfolio, non the less, I am very happy about this update to my first ever SEO efforts in web. I’d love to see examples and reports on how your current SEO efforts are going and possible results from from the latest Google PR update, please share your updates with us?

Thanks,
Curtis
