What the Hell Happened to My Google Pagerank

I had a google pagerank of 2 and now I'm back to 0. Can someone please tell me why the decrease? I greatly appreciate it. I did change to a custom domain, but I made sure to verify my site.

If you mean, as I think you do, that you moved your blog to a new URL, then it's an entirely new site in the eyes of Google. If you have the ability to use a 301 redirect from your old blog, eventually Google will make the connection, but if you can't do that then you are starting from scratch. -
Don't worry about page rank anyways it's over rated

I went to www.iwebtool.com that checks google page rank and msscorpia.blogspot.com is still a 2, but when I check my new custom domain, allthingsscorpia.com, I'm a 0. Oh well, I'm just going to keep on posting quality content.

MadameX is right your new domain will need to acquire links to get pagerank again.
You won't be able to 301 redirect from blogspot currently though.

yeah that's it right? Don't worry about page rank you just need to worry about quality writing
People don't go back to your site to see a PR 1,2,3,4 etc... they go back because they like your content -
SO TRUE, THANKS!! HAPPY NEW YEAR

Happy New Year!
Q: Do google also do a manual check of blogs to see if it contains quality related posts??? -
no...they are checking for quality, relative links... -
same happened to me, from a PR of 4 i had at omareduardo13.wordpress.com I'm now at 'page rank unavailable' at omareduardo.com
but people are still visiting! i don't regret moving my blog!
Happy New Year! -
