I've seen some chatter, and some people with page rank increases. Sounds like Google has released a Page Rank update. Can anyone confirm this?

 

iHeartBudgets is holding steady at PR3 :)

Yes, they've updated. EdwardAntrobus.com is now a 3.

 I'm looking for editors, beta-readers, and some demographic research for my upcoming novel, Once Upon a Saturn Moon. If you like reading soft sci-fi thrillers, maybe with a touch of romance thrown in, you can find more information at http://seampublishing.com/once…..aturn-moon

Good heads up. Hopefully many of you have received some positive changes.

Remember that the main metric is traffic. There should be correlation to PR and traffic, but it has proven to be a loose relation e.g. sites with PR downgrades have seen robust traffic increases.

Be careful with overloading your site with direct ads and "guest posts" for 2013. The storm is coming again based on my conversations with a couple Google friends here in SF. Once you get hit, it's anywhere from 6months to years of purgatory.

The Yakezie Network list should be updated by Feb 18 as the PR chron job is updated every 14 days.

Good luck and fight on!

Regards,

The Money Principle stayed at PR3 – oh, well, I have accepted that I am a late developer.

Now that it has been a couple of days, I noticed that my PR did not decrease, but Google search traffic did slightly.
