		<description>It&#039;s just Google&#039;s huge plan to manipulate the entire online advertising arena - you say it they deny it but when time is right, they will unveil their new plans on online advertising..

Devaluing PR doesn&#039;t really mean anything - advertisers will still have the cash to buy links while there would be new publishers who are interested in monetizing their site. Even you punish the existing participants, what about the new sites?

It&#039;s a big cat and mouse game without any ending.. It&#039;s just Google exercising their power as a market monopoly..</description>

		<description>My page rank was 4 before this happened, but I believe I may have been punished by google for excessive reciprocal linking, which I have stopped. I used to be very high under the term miami real estate,but I have been pushed back to the 70th page for about 2 months or more now, although under the image search, my site is on the first page of most relevant search terms. I requested reinclusion. Any ideas?</description>

		<description>Hi Navneet,

I found something rather strange--after my blog went down, to 4, it bounced back up to 5 again.  I have no idea how that happened, but it did.  It seems that google was going thru some sort of adjustment.  

It was actually worse for me when I got dropped from google search because I did not change my template when switching over from Blogger to Google/Blogger.  Got that straightened out too and I&#039;m actually coming up in search a lot now.  

I actually think Jon Dingman has a good point. But Technorati&#039;s been weird with counting links (or NOT counting links) for a long time. So, there really is no one metric that should be the only way to &quot;value&quot; a blog.</description>

		<description>Popo,

You are right. It seems Google been little harsh on these sites. However the good thing is that none of these sites has lost any rankings in Google. So at the end of the day we can safetly assume that Google is not getting rid of its PR from the Google Toolbar, else they should not have done this update.</description>

		<description>Google&#039;s desire to &quot;punish&quot; is a scary vision of things to come.  

Let&#039;s be clear:  The goal of the web publishing business is to maximize numbers of interested viewers.  How do we do this?  We link.  We rank.

To suggest that publishers are engaging in some sort of &quot;dark side&quot; activity by attempting to increase page rank is to suggest that one&#039;s own promotion is &quot;evil&quot;.

But it gets worse, because the reason Google is doing this, is to put more pressure on publishers to buy Google&#039;s paid search terms.

Google is the pot calling the kettle black.  It&#039;s chastising publishers for acting in their own economic self interest, while doing exactly that.  And for the record, claiming that this helps the quality of rankings is very questionable.  Because who wins?  Lesser known sites that have fewer crosslinks?  Hmm... 

Hey Google... don&#039;t be evil?</description>

		<description>well we have seen one article directory go from 4 to 2 and one blog from 5 to 3.  However - the other sites we run don&#039;t seem to have changed so they likely haven&#039;t been updated yet.</description>
