Google just did another update and guess what? TechieDan.com dropped from PR 1 to PR 0? Previously it was PR 2 to PR 1, then now from PR 1 to PR 0. Is there something wrong with Google Page Ranking system. I wonder if they are really doing a proper job for the rankings.
I still remembered the time when TechieDan.com first reached Page Rank 1 and it was a good feeling.
Well, not to say the least I think Page Ranking has done a great problem to all the webmasters out there. To get a Page Rank 0 for a dotcom is absurd at times. But what’s worse is if you have a blogspot account and if you didn’t update it for like few months, it still maintain it’s high page rank.
Biasness? Or rather google just want you to use their own products. I can’t believe it.
ps : It’s proven also with my page rank at my blogspot still maintaining it’s high PR even after days of not updating it at all. Wonder why?
Updated :
If your page used to have PageRank but not anymore it means either:
* banned by Google (hand penalty is made by Google employee)
* your site was down when Googlebot last crawled your site
* your page is considered duplicate content by Google
Ah lucky, mine’s at 3
that’s sad to hear… happy weekends.. 🙂
Don’t worry much, it’s maybe cuz of SEO and other stuff…mainly, it’s the core essence in your blog that is not concentrated to JUST ONE TOPIC, so more relevant to one topic, the higher it is…

am not really good with that thingy. at least mine still maintained. probably due to joining the wrong blog website or something? Google probably wont approve certain blog website.
Azrin, the content of a website has absolutely nothing to do with losing PageRank in a Toolbar PR update. It is purely to do with the number and quality of links pointing at your website from other websites and the quality of your internal linking strategy.
Harmony,
Yup… that’s good 🙂
glamorous slyph,
happy weekends to u too..
Azrin,
well, i might be one who is weak at building links.
irvine,
maybe it was some affliate links.
The Big Man,
What you say is true if it’s based on Toolbar PR update. I guessed I should start adding internal linkings and also share links with other techs..
