Google PR update.

Crap! My GPR down to 2 from 3.. I dont knw why. been blogging, been reading, been maintaining

Do a little SEO for your blog, vinay . It will improve the traffic as well :)

Why does PR decrease when the chances of incoming links decreasing is almost zero?

thats great DS, congos :)

you can say I am the NO 1

yes, DS you are number 1.

one filmy dialogue-

"chaho toh kuch bhi hai aasaan"

If DS is number one who am I? 

Congrats DS Hope that your IndiRank increases and stays constant just like your GPR

Thanks for that better than 1 position. 

Congrats Abhi, I am at 2! Slow and steady wins the GPR. is it true?

Thanks...DS

Thanks...Arti

Completely true Mohinee.:)

Congrats.

Arti, sorry dear, I shared the reason on other thread, due to power cut, I get very less time to come online these days. that's why,

Congrats Mohini. Yes, slow and steady wins the race but can the race ever end, PR of 10!!!

Power cut in winter! IB team should be made to govern India so that we do not face any such problems. 

Number 1 and Number 2 have replied in an orderly manner. One after the other. Well done DS and Mohini 

No  probs Mohinee, come whenever possible :)

ZERO 

Zero is begining of the world

Dont worry Ranjith, its bound to increase. I got my non-zero pr after many months. I am sure you wont have to wait much. :)

Oh I feel like crying seeing the way you are consoling me.

I had a PR of 2 earlier but now as I shifted to a custom domain, the PR got reset to zero. I hope that PR gets transferred.

hahaha......don't cry

PLus 1 DS!

Yes, it might take another few months. 

yeayie-clap clap :)

Wow congratsssssss

Thats really good Arti. Keep the momentum :)

1 to 3... next Indirank mein to reflect hoga hi yeh congrats

So your rank is 2+(-3)=-1 That's great!!! 

... Congrats 

@Ds Thanks :)

@Leo Hopefully... hona toh... chahiye...

@Ranjith Thanks :) Just replied in an orderly manner zero, -1 ..hehe

@ranjith, didnt understand :(

Now I did not understand what Arti meant.... Confusions are increasing nowdays on the forum. It all started with the congratulatory thraed for Arti and then the thread related to reviews posted by Hemal and now it is time for this discussion to get into the clutches of confusion

@Ranjith I anticipated your reply to abhi as "What you did not understand " So provided an answer beforehand

Constant @ 2 , i have started hating consistency .

It's good

Yup, its really good. Nothing to worry about. I think traffic is more important than Pagerank and they dont always go hand- in hand. 

Then why not go to 1? 

Anyway, congrats

@ Ranjith ,nice idea .

@ranjith

My rank is 2/10 now! 

congrats Subhorup, thats great.

 when did you start blogging?

Thanks, Abhi, Arti, and DS. I hear about Prs of 5 and 6 for blogs, so I was not clear whether a 2 is good or not. I have been blogging for six years, but more in the form of keeping a personal journal with only myself and my family as readers. It is only since the last six months that I have started blogging more regularly and keeping a broader more general readership in mind.

Wow! 6 years is quite a time. It requires some serious dedication to blog for that much amount of time. amazing! :)

Congrats Subhorup. 

A PR of 2 is good enough. PR 5 and 6 is difficult to achieve. Moving to higher PR is difficult because it is on a log scale. If 100 links can bring you to PR1, 1000 are required to move to PR 2 and so on.. though not exactly as I described. Spending more time is the best way but it is possible only for professional bloggers.

Hi frnds...my blog PageRank got PR 4 ,and other blog get PR 2 ..

http://facebook.com/mani4astro

Just checked Indiblogger's PR. Its 4 :) 

Has it decreased? I thought it was 4 earlier as well..

maybe because renie is not being regular with the updates ? LOL

any tool to check the page rank history of a site?

No, that would be too high. indiatimes and rediff have a pagerank of 7. I dont think indi gets that much traffic, besides it also depends on incoming links from sites with higher pr.

Reason for the dip: Renie hasn't asked any sponsorer to send us free i pads in the way Dove has sent free hair care product samples 

@ DS Page Rank is not at all related to traffic. It only depends on the quantity and quality of incoming links. The other way around can be true: A page having a high PR might get more traffic because it is likely to perform better in searh engines.

@ Arti Good Joke! I answer other people queries by googling.  Let me try the same now.

This might help: http://www.seomoz.org/toolbox/pagerank 

It asks me to register to access the feature. I am too lazy to do it.... 

@Ranjith that is also a great skill, if you ask me

thanks for that link ranjith!

@ Arti Thank you  

checked my Pr  its 1 ,better than last time ... it was 0 

Thats nice Deepika, congratz

congrats deepika

thnx 4 encouragement @DS , m happy atleast I got PR as my blog is just 3 months old 

Been Blogging Since 2nd Oct, 2011, Got PR3. I was expecting a PR5, but links have got diluted across 3 other website's of our which are interlinked. All other  sites of ours have moved to PR1. As Google is Down from PR10 to PR9, another update is expected shortly. Increased my link building activity 20 times, Hope to crack that PR5!

Congrats to all others who have improved their ranking and those would could not, give it a shot, you will get there!

That is a good rank withink a short period of time. Any particular sites you would recommend fot link building? When do you think the next update will be?

thanks in advance :)

Congrats Rupam. Hope the links get concentrated soon. 

gr8 PR @Rupam

Actually PR is bit outdated in terms of a measure of the targeted traffic we get. Moz rank gives you a better understanding. But PR helps in getting Readers Attention.

Checking the Rank against the targeted keyword is better. But I guess It makes sense to first be loved by Gig G, then we can always get that love from Mr. Moz and Ms. Alexa!

Thanks DS and Deepika for your comments!

my one blog PR is 3 and other is 1. both the blogs are less that one year old.

PLus 10 DS and Arty, Congratulations, Ram. Great going :)

*arti!

that's great Ram

Haha, thanks DS,.

Yours will increase too, it looks like you are in top-gear of blogging :)

I finally got my first PR... PR1after 5 months...!

Thats great!! Congrats Jitaditya!

Congrats JItaditya. 

Congratulations Jitaditya. Slowly and steadily you will get where you want to get.

GPR 3 and few of my internal pages are ranked as '4' and '5', so very happy..

Thats great SIS! be prepared for spam though 

Congrats SIS, even i got a 3

I just hit PR 3! I was at 2 last week. I noticed though that right before this change my backlinks suddenly went up from 2 to 51. I had plenty of backlinks (much more than 2) but Google took forever to update it. What's really odd though is that with this increase my alexa score is dropping considerably (about from under 8lakh to now over 11lakh). I don't understand that.

Thats great, Kristy. Congratz 

Yeah I'm not too concerned with Alexa but I do watch it. I don't fully understand all this promotional tracking yet, I just know which numbers are good and I want those kind of numbers lol. I was surprised to hit 3 so quickly since I mostly have a 'my life drama' kind of blog. It's a lot of fun to write though hahaha.

Hi abhi, congrats. My blogs also got an increase. But my josechukkiri-news.blogspot.com having PR2 decreased to '0' when I customised it to josechukkiri-news.com. Now I have to build up the page rank again from where it started.

Agree with DS. Dont worry about pagerank because a custom domain is much better from SEO point of view than a free domain. Thank you . :)
