Look how old this is! I post at SearchCommander.com now, and this post was published 17 years 3 days ago. This industry changes FAST, so blindly following the advice here *may not* be a good idea! If you're at all unsure, feel free to hit me up on Twitter and ask.
There’s apparently a bug in Google PageRank at this very moment, causing a PR0 to appear for many pages from many geographic locations, and I had a brief moment of panic. 😉
I just happened to notice that one of my sites was a PR0 – That was odd, so I checked another, and another, 5 domains, all PR0. Then I looked at my blog, and it too had been knocked down to a zero. Oh no, my link juice, all gone!
Then I looked at a client site, then another, and another. All PR0. Then, a flash of inspiration brought me to CNN.
Whew!
Actually, I was hoping that they’d finally dumped Google Pagerank and we could be done with the whole PR penalty thing once and for all!
Ha ha, that is funny, I think the problem is fixed now, or at least not affecting me, coz I get them coming up as a pr9. 🙁
Yeah, it only lasted a while, I guess… Scared me though!
