And you know that how? It had better links than the PR0 domain. But thank you for your mighty knowledge of "ranking sites with only using high pr links"
The most common reason for a drop in Toolbar Pagerank is simply your website is receiving less Pagerank via the links it has pointing to it from other sites. Pagerank can also go down as the result of a penalty. If you have been penalised there may be a notice in Google Webmaster Tools.
"We looked at hundreds of sites and 90 percent dropped," says Dave Naylor of Bronco. "We've not seen many gain PageRank in big leaps this time. We saw PR6s drop to PR1s, but not many PR1s rise to a PR6."
There is also a lot of speculation that this data is not that fresh, and that the data seems to be several months old. Since Google gets daily updates to their internal PageRank tool, it seems a bit mysterious that Google would push out stale data -- unless there is a reason for it.
"My gut feeling is that the PageRank is from when the Google PageRank system broke, so it's not new PageRank; it's second hand PageRank from September-ish," says Naylor.
I think it may be relatively old data as a site that had PR 0 I deindexed (and still is) almost 2 months ago and blocked with robots.txt now has PR 2. Anyone else seeing similar? Can a site get PR even if deindexed?
pay attention, many high pr domains did not change, but these did not have any link.
