I saw my PageRank go from PR5 to PR3 today. Then, someone also pointed out that Yugatech.com’s blog PR also went down. I checked the online PR checkers to verify.

For those who don’t know, Page Rank was considered Google’s rate for your site. Some consider still consider it quite important - especially when you want to sign up services like Text Link Ads(TLA) or Pay Per Post (PPP). They often require a PR of 5 for websites.
It seems like a PR update is in progress and it’s affected Yugatech.com and Jozzua.com.
Hmm, Is this it? I lost some PR juice!

i see PR3 on my toolbar for your blog now. pati kay yuga, updated na rin yung toolbar ko. PR3 na rin. hmm, bakit kaya bumaba? due to selling links?

Google probably hates TLA.

even aboutmyrecovery.com went to PR3. mukhang TLA nga ang common denominator ah.

I’m a PR4 but TLA and PPP approved me. I don’t think Google’s PageRank is still a valid measure of a site’s relevance.

My PR3 blog went down to PR2 just today din. It’s gotta be TLA.

My site got a -2 PR penalty as well. Although I’d start removing some bad neigborhood links in the site, I still won’t succumb to all of Google’s demands. That’s because Google is evil, LOL.

my PR went up to 5/10 from 4/10. i think PR is determined by sexiness
