I can't beleive this forum's PR dropped to 3. Are all forums being penalized for some reason? Is it the signature links or what? Very bizarre...I hope it hasn't hurt the rankings in the SERP's.

I thinks it's brilliant. Google rules.

It would be interesting to see whether WMT's traffic was affected.

To answer Newbie's question, it was PR6 before. I noticed the big drop - I hope it doesn't effect the depth of the crawls now as I believe Vangogh informed me PR does.

REAL PR affects crawling and ranking

Toolbar PR affects nowt, apart from a lot of SEO "Experts" who should know better

Thanks for clearing that up Chris. I was a bit surprised that toolbar PR did have a good use such as crawl depth

Toolbar PR is a representation of actual PR but for a very short period of time but as WMT sell text links without rel="nofollow" tag probably the PR of WMT is effected and so it has reduced considerable amount but the traffic should remain same becuase the keywords for which WMT ranks well is not only dependent on the home page but the thread pages as well. The home page traffic is same as far as what I have read in the other forums and some people are now seeing a drop in the traffic as well. Lets see what comes up here at WMT

Which ultimately has to be a better deal. It would be better if the entire toolbar PR system was scrapped though

But then there would be fewer tantrums. It's not just the toolbar PR that is for entertainment

I sell text links without nofollow and my PR only dropped to a 5 froma 6. There must be other factors involved.

Perhaps you have more drop coming in the next update? Meaning no offense, if what's been mentioned about text link sales, I would imagine WT is more visible than your site, and so a better target.

**** this little green bar!

I wish people started buying links based on objective sites' rankings, such as traffic for example.

Ya really........now its really hard to get a higher Page Rank as it looks google is so strict than earlier in terms of relevancy and paid links....Google now advanced to recognise paid links.
