I got my PR Back! Whoo Hoo!

Back in March when Google updated their algorithm, I lost my PR of 3 and went to a 0. I was flummoxed and upset. However, after working on a redesign, looking into why weird sites were linking back to me, and resubmitting to Google (oh, and asking them to reevaluate my site – or should I say begging), I'm finally back to a PR of 3!

 

I'm relieved!

 

Anyone else recently get boosted up in PR after getting knocked down?

Congrats Little House, happy for you!

 

I'd be curious to know how were you able to get the links removed.

Congratulation! I sent in a reeval request recently and they still didn't me off the hook. I guess I'll have to wait until the end of the year until I remove all banners to resubmit again.

I actually couldn't get the back links removed. I e-mailed some of the spam "owners" and asked them to stop linking to me, but I'm guessing they don't really care or don't use the email address on file. I emailed Google and requested they revisit my site and they must have done that since they took me off the "black" list of whatever they called it.

I didn't remove my banners. Instead I just submitted my email to Google and told them I wasn't a link farm, basically. I explained the topics I write about and sort of came off as offended that they thought I was purposely creating "bad" links (though I said this politely). However, in the Google email it did say it could take months for them to check my site and get back to me. Instead, it only took a couple of weeks. I just lucked out on that I suppose. I'm sure they'll get to checking your site. Hopefully sooner than later!

Great to hear Jennifer and Larry!

Google's lack of transparency and whimsical ways are quite vexing!
