Any Google Observations?

daboss

Anyone noticed Google changes in Page Rank? I have started noticing some changes in some sites but my BMW site hasn't moved from PR 0.

I'm hoping it hasn't been passed over...

SEbasic

It won't have missed you...

Just be patient. I haven't seen any PR changes with my sites yet. Hopefully something will come along

Python

what PR has www.devdreams.com got now?

i cant check because my internet explorer doesnt work.

daboss

dd has a pr 5 while the forum main page has pr 4 - no change?

Python

yeah thats the same as it was before - thanks

Cibok

I belive the PR will update very soon. In this or next week hopefully!

tony

i think its already happened cibok, my website went online a few days too late so im stuk at 0 till the next time

daboss

Has it happened? I didn't notice any PR change in my site

I have noticed some changes in Google search listings - very minor though...

tony

i think its happened, pr is just a measure of link backs to your site and what pr their links page has, so if they are putting you on a links page that has a pr of 0-2 it probably ont help you much

Cibok

No, as far as I know, there hasn't been a PR update yet this month.

Python

google should create some sort of page or maybe even a newsletter which will send out news about pr updates and changes

daboss

lol

Try telling it to them... They're all secretive and trying their best to prevent webmasters like us from learning their trade...

Python

hehe, yeah

tony

thats so people dont abuse the system
lets face it, if you knew a keyword in a certain postion helped your site 60% you would use it and abuse ti as would everyone else d you can understand why they dont tell you
PS im rat arse so spelling mistakes will be sorted tomoorees

daboss

I'll abuse the system even if it gives me a 1% advantage...

tony

thats so people dont abuse the system
lets face it, if you knew a keyword in a certain postion helped your site 60% you would use it and abuse ti (it) as would everyone else d(dunno why thats there) you can understand why they dont tell you
PS im rat arse so spelling mistakes will be sorted tomoorees(HAHAHAHA tomorrow)

anyway about 100 pints of water later plus food im feeling a little bit more normal

and i totally agree bimmer so thats why they dont tell you the algorithm

kink

can take a couple months before google will give it page rank

daboss

I've known of sites that get page rank the moment they're listed in Google. I guess they must have immediately started soliciting inbound links the moment the launch. :shock:

SEbasic

BS. Where did you hear that from

daboss

I will admit up front that I do not have first hand information on that.

I was told by a fellow webmaster (my actual friend rather than a virtual friend) that he had a customer which he completed full design and development before launching. Upon launch he also had a couple of sites with PR already linking to this site. Apparently, when it got assigned a PR around the same time it was listed in Google.

:idea:

SEbasic

Maybe it was an old domain with some links already pointing to it.

Chances are that it was either that or your mate was mistaken.

Python

or perhaps there was a temporary holding page which some sites were linking to. maybe the page was placed there to say that the site was currently under construction

SEbasic

You could be right, but why would someone link to a holding page?

Python

maybe the person linking was encouraging the sites future content or something.
