Pagerank update 2008
A Google Toolbar Pagerank update is happening as I write this. The last PR update was around 3 months ago. It would be interesting to see if Google softens its tough stance on penalizing websites/blogs that sell links, or relaxes it a bit.
I already see a case of the latter with some blogs going back to their high PR. This blog for instance was a PR7 before the last PR upheaval and was penalized down to a PR4. I now see that it is a PR7 again. They seem to have removed the 30 odd outgoing links which were on their home page and I am sure this is what got back their PR.
Not that Pagerank is an all important factor that influences rankings, but it is a part of over 100 factors that Google considers in their ranking algorithm - an important part at that.
