    Mine are both still at 4.

    All of my blogs except my personal blog have dropped one point, but that's no surprise since I have not posted on any of them for 6-10 weeks.
    1. anyamtabad
      The real surprise came as some of my blog posts 2 weeks back also have some PR now.

    mine is PR2 but I am just starting. How often do they come out?
  5. MelvinD
    mine is a pr0 blog.. wtf!
    1. anyamtabad
      Hi Melvin, what is the age of your blog ?
  6. roadgurl5
    Hmmm, a few weeks ago I had a 0PR and I now have a 2PR, so I'm happy!
  7. Ismailn7733
    Mine dropped from 5 to 2. Amazing!
    It was strange because it went straight to PR 5, 4 months after its creation date 30-06-2008. PR 2 after six months? fair enough.

      yeah that happens a lot these days, now is the time you should consolidate and build some more backlinks. Any changes in your organic rankings ?

    Usually when Google does a page rank update we have many member posting to the forum about it. This time it's suspiciously quiet and I'm wondering why that is. How did your blog(s) fare?
    1. MadameX
      Maybe people have finally gotten over PR?
    2. timethief
      lol ...

      posted on the other thread since I didn't see this one having been away a lot lately. I don't think very many blogs actually changed this update. I am not counting less than 10 changes in more than 100 I either write for or manage. The update may still be underway, but I am doubting that.
  9. webomatik
    my blog hasn't change - stable at PR2
  10. dratiffarid
    My blog went from a N/A to PR2.

    It's been 1 1/2 months since I started it.

    My blog has been unranked for more than a week (it's usually PR3). They must love me

    I don't have a google toobar but I did check and the "should be famous" blog dropped to a 3 as it is not posted in very often at all. I just don't have the time - once a month or every two months at one point is all I can manage. My other blogs really never change.
    I don't see page ranking as being very significant though I read some great blogs with no page rank.
    1. bradhart
      Page rank matters depending on what you do with your blog. For example the rate of paid posting in one of my blogs my minor blogs which went from pr 1 to pr 4 will go from $5 or $6 to paid post to around $15 to $20 per post. I have basically taken this blog into the thousand dollar a month range. This is a MU blog with subdirectories rather than subdomains and I am already reaping the benefits of its 36 niche blogs on TLA and linkworth as well.
