Maybe the PageRank Prediction tool uses the Google API to get its info. If you click the check link next to the results, you’ll see the address points to Google’s domain. The PageRank Prediction tool probably looks for the largest value as its basis of the prediction. PR is not matter, traffic is matter. For some I agree but if you have high PR then Google will visit your site often more.

I must admit page rank always baffled me. I understand the basic concept of links as a ‘vote’ but when I installed ‘SEO for Firefox’ which display various SEO data in the Google sesrch, I found that some sites which weren’t great had good PR. I have just ocncentrated on writing and linking with good sites. I launched the blog in May and have a PR of 4, I consider that not a bad effort.

It seems to me that when Google is working on PR or BL, they throw huge resources into it. If you keep an eye on GoogleBot spidering of a site, the number of spiders per day, reduces drastically, about a week before the new rankings appear, from between 4 and 8 a day, to only one a day.The strange thing is that although this happened up until 17th July, when sites were re-ranked, and then spidering went back to normal, this weekend, it has gone back to just one spider in 24 hours.

Maybe Google is doing something else with their resources, that we aren’t aware of !! Maybe a new ranking system, or BL [backlink] system

@Keron: I have the same experience with my pagerank in Google. Although it dropped only from 4 to 2. I was very worried that I would loose my visitors. Fortunately Bing has picked up my website and now most of the the visitors come from Bing. Notice: I also added more unique content. Unique content is still the most important thing that attracts visitors.

I had a 4/10 PR and it disappeared about a month now to 0/10 and I know i got some really good backlinks and unique content. So I just don’t worry about it because I am still getting visitors from Bing and Yahoo.

Congratulations Yaro for your work of four years ago, from where some informations are still valid today. Many bloggers and owners of websites runs after backlinks, more backlinks for page rank… What it`s the main difference between all these and a pro bloggers e.g.?

One pro will search for quality one way backlinks and more less of them will monitorize these backlinks. I`m not the first who write these things. In January a known SEO expert afirmed in public that in present it`s not more needed to be a SEO expert to obtain a fast indexing in search engines and even to obtain top positions.

I can confirm that theory, in July 13 I started a little project, only with free methods and I obtained the indexing in Google in less than three days and for a second domain name I obtained the 2-7 position in the first page of Google for few targeted keywords in less than 13 days. These things can be done without have SEO skills indeed, anyone can do when he/her know some things and start to apply those. In my blog it can be found more details.
