Is Google's PR Dead ? I Hope So .....

May 29th, 2005, 1:56 pm

well just because it PR isn't displayed on the toolbar doesn't necessarily mean that google will take PR out of the ranking algorithm. I mean it may just mean that you can't tell what your PR is at the time. Too bad though I was doing a lot of linking for one of my sites and wanted to check on the PR as increased it.

What's the point of this conversation? Unflux used to have as his signature " the only constant is change" (or something close to that) -- so Google wants to change? I say let them. Don't get stuck in a rut and run with the dogs.

why not?

this topic/conversation is interesting.
if it is gonna to change, we have to adapt to change.
share thoughts and discuss. nothing wrong with that i reckon.

there are few interesting threads on this at webmasterworld too.
check it out.

Do you have a specific thread for the source? I am still skeptical where that information came from. Please give the exact link that you can find the quote on.

The guy who had posted is is normally a good informer but in this thread he said he dont want to name the source, he said he have this information from a very big Adultforum in USA and the information is 90% real!

But no one can confirm it!

It is Memorial Weekend which goes from Friday through Monday (Memorial Day is actually Monday though). Also you may have noticed PageRank went off line starting on Friday. In my opinion they are simply taking advantage of this weekend to do an update to either their pagerank system or changing algorithms of some sorts. This would be a perfect weekend to do it on. I have a hunch that PageRank might return late tonight or tomorrow. Nobody can really say though. It is all skepticism.

Thank you for the information and lets wait what happens this night or tomorrow

For those of you who believe in what GoogleGuy says over at webmaster world he just recently posted:

GoogleGuy wrote:

I talked to a few people and there was some new infrastructure that was swapping in. They expect normal toolbar pagerank display to resume in a few hours--no need for concern.

You can see the source directly here:

For those of you who don't know, GoogleGuy supposely works at Google and usually has information from the inside to what is going on. From what I have seen him post in the last few years what he says usually seems very accurate.

A few dcs have it now back and i see it with my German toolbar!
