Ive just noticed a Google PR update has happened - around 20-21st January 2011
Though I know it doesnt affect SE rankings and I generally hold spots 1-3 for all my top terms, my PR has dropped to 1 on a main site and I was expecting at least a 4! Anyone know why?
The only difference to my site since the last update is that I've been doing a lot of link building all over the place - generally making about 10 inbound links per domain - targeting internal pages and home page. Ive not changed the sites im linking to, or any significant changes to the site.
And not just any links - most links are surrounded with relevant text and have decent PR themselves.
Could this be a blip? So long as it doesnt affect my SE rankings Im happy, but PR does have a psychological effect at least. We have the Official Google Update Thread - January 2011 thread for this discussion.
