There seems to be a Google PageRank update happening. A friend noticed yesterday or the day before that a clients domain had regained it’s PR rank after the last hit everyone took for either buying or selling text links. I didn’t see the change until today and I’m still seeing some movement on some domains so I don’t think it’s fully over. I have seen some of my sites moving up and some moving down. Luckily, I don’t care about PR, but some people do. All I care about is being listed in the search engines so I want to do everything I can to stay within the guidelines. As long as I can do that and continue to build my traffic through natural means and/or PPC advertising, I’ll be a happy camper.
Anyone else notice anything major during this update?
Yep, Google is at it again. This time wearing a even bigger pair of boots. My balls are still sore from the last time. Google must hate blog networks.
No doubt. Seems to be a more positive update this time, thankfully.
No updates from my end – but do you have a quick resource for those “guidelines” you mention? Or maybe do you want to write a post about it? I’d love to know.
