Google slapping PageRank Penalties

Greetings from Los angeles! I’m bored at work so I decided to check out your site on my iphone during lunch break. I enjoy the information you provide here and can’t wait
to take a look when I get home. I’m surprised at how fast your blog loaded on my cell phone .. I’m
not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyways, amazing site!

Hello! Do you use Twitter? I’d like to follow you if that would be okay. I’m undoubtedly enjoying your blog and look forward to new
posts.

Thanks for sharing Google pr update every 3 months

too bad, I used to have PR3, then a few weeks later it went down to 2. and i was glad to note that some of my other pages got PR 1 because of some sites that linked to these pages. but today when i checked my PR, all of my pages including the main page now got a 0 PR!!!

Hey,

Now after 3 months from 31st Dec 08, Google finally update my site’s PR as on 2nd April 09.

Saat ini PR saya Slam Dunk jadi 0 (nol), saya dah berusaha dengan saya dah coba posting rutin, submit ke directory dan juga blobwalking, tetapi PR-nya tetep slam dunk jadi 0 I(nol), gimana ya ? seberapa google menghukum PR suatu web/blog?

Just got a “Google Slap” last sunday. My PR dropped from 2 to 0. 2 na nga lang PR ko eh kinuha pa nila, hindi na sila naawa, huhuhu… :(

Before I got PR3 then it becomes PR2 and now, it’s PR0 :( how sad…..

Just an update, Google has updated PR again this week. A lot of Pinoy sites have again been affected.

Check out the list of sites with reduced PR:

More Pinoy sites lose PageRank as Google updates… again

What is the difference of advertising and selling links? Yung advertising is also paying someone to blog about a certain company then link them up. It’s all very confusing. But I think the whole world just felt the grip of Google. I think the Internet community should come up with a non-baised system for ranking because alot of the advertising online is so dependent on the Google value. The monopoly game has been won.

Warning about engaging in paid links by Google was announced a long time ago. That’s why as much as possible I wanted to avoid, it but sometimes I’m tempted to do it because it appears that it’s only a threat. But now it happens.

Anyway I think PR might not affect much the ranking and traffic, because I see many sites with high PR but low traffic and low PR with high traffic.

And regarding the effect of the update on my sites, yes I was surprise because the sites I didn’t expect to have a PR did increase. One have PR0 -> PR3( http://www.filipinofriendsterworld.com ).
But sub domains have decreased PR.

Personally, I believe more on Google’s internal PR than the toolbar PR. You can still rank well with low PR.

Here’s the guy who cut down on the pageranks.

PR ng blog ko ng drop din. From PR-4 to 2 and to PR-1 (without www)..is the update for good or we will expect another PR change in a matter of days? Last hour my website with a “www” had a PR-3 then now its down to 2. Very unpredictable..

In Copyblogger’s case, he said that he never sold any links on his blog. There are other theories why these big time blogs got penalized.

too bad :(

Is PR thing really that valuable? As long as my earnings doesn’t change, it doesn’t seems to bother me at all. Oh, I don’t sell links anyway.

Kaya pala biglang nawala sa first page yung site ko. I even have screenshots that were taken just 6 hours ago. Ang bilis nawala parang bula :(

This is scary, I hope Google doesn’t reduce my PR 5 rating. It’s time to review those link ads once more.

Some are saying it is a penalty? out of my three (3) PR 6 sites, two of them are now mostly PR 4 in the google datacenters. Incidentally, the my lone PR 6 site is my old webhosting site which has no paid text links ads at all. lauren’s blog retains a PR 5 even if she has text link ads . Mine is now PR 3.
