		<description>Hi, I thought I would post and let you know your web site layout is really screwed up on the Firefox browser. Seems to work ok in Internet Explorer though. Anyhow keep up the great work.</description>

The &quot;update&quot; is only what the public sees.  We have no idea when they are actually making changes.  Besides PR is such a small factor in ranking.  Remember the PR on the toolbar is NOT what a site is right now.</description>

		<description>PR stopped meaning much many months ago.  I am SHOCKED how many people do paid sponsorships on sites that have no original content just ad copy-- not the case with yours.  So basically the advertisers just aren&#039;t too smart.</description>

		<description>I  I donâ€™t consider it a factor in paid reviews or in paid advertising..
I think it&#039;s a bias thing to do if people do take it into consideration since PR is specific to google. Have anyone seen rank page by yahoo or msn?
I think this internet world should come up with a more GENERAL Metrics or ranking system to rank pages.

Anyway, on my side I dropped down from a PR4 to a PR3.
But let&#039;s not get frustrated by this.. let&#039;s keep rocking!

Best wishes,
- Wakish -</description>

		<description>@ Stephan,
Congrats to you new PR.

Most review sites like PPP and SnapBomb still consider PR in factoring the value of a blog. So far, I&#039;m doing well with Alexa. Thanks for dropping by. :)

@ Clement,
Actually, traffic from Google has been affected. I noticed that the number of external links has been reduced by Google. All the keywords and keyphrases I&#039;ve optimized was placed lower than before. The worse thing is, sponsored review offers has gone down tremendously (which is my major source of income). Monetization is badly affected.

Thanks for dropping by. :)</description>

		<description>Dear Rocky

Sad to learn that your Tool Bar PR has been wiped out.But I am sure your Search Engine Ranking Positions have not changed. A number of people whose TBPR had been wiped confirmed that this experience does not affect SERPs and the amount of Google traffic to your blog. These two remain in tact and this leads people to suggest that Google has a REAL but SECRET PR which really defines the quality of your site/blog. The one on the Tool Bar is there just for Google to safeguard their ever growing commercial interests. In other words, to deny their competitors a chance to catch up with them. The funny part is that advertizers have been so brainwashed by the PR issue.They value it greatly. If a lousy site with less traffic and less comment activity can get a PR of 7, all these advertizers will flock to it.Too bad!Which is why I salute IZEA for the Real Ranks initiative. IZEA&#039;s ranking captures a number of parameters in order to determine the rank of a site for advertisement purposes. And I would like to call upon all the advertisers to embrace it.</description>

		<description>I was on the good side of Google this time, going from a 3 to a 4, but I don&#039;t consider it a factor in paid reviews or in paid advertising. The time between updates is too long to factor in and the numbers are so small to begin with. By the time you get to PR5 sites, sites with the same pagerank can have drastically different amounts of incoming links. Alexa is worse. I know two sites that get the same amount of traffic, one with an Alexa of 95,000 and another with 700,000. I think services like Quantcast are the best solution.</description>
