Wow: My Google PR

[FredC]

Im not exactly sure how this happened so quick unless im missing something? Anyways i only just recently moved my largest community from vB4 with a PR2 on the forum index page (forums/index.php) maybe a month ago.. Last night when i went to bed google hadn't even noticed my new XF site with a new URL (community/index.php) I didnt bother with any redirects to any of my forum pages let alone the forum index page.. Anyways this morning i woke up to a nice little surprise with a google PR3 on my new XF forum index page.

Nice, so I guess google is updating the page ranks again. I have been waiting for it since I lost our page rank when we changed domains.

Intersting mine was bumping back and forth between a 2 and 4 every other month.. I just figured it would take the better part of a year to get any PR from Google with the new URL on the forum index not using any redirects. I really was expecting the worse case scenario playing out. I suppose im going to have to re read up on the factors involved in determining PR.

Where do you check your PR?

Where do you check your PR?

I use the google toolbar other then that im sure a google search for a Google PR Checker would produce a few results.

I've always used this site: http://www.prchecker.info/check_page_rank.php

Thanks guy.
Checked with toolbar and that prchecker site and both show PR 5 for forum and front page.
On our way to PR 6 this year.

PageRank is pretty meaningless, and Google has said so themselves (when they removed it from webmaster tools). It doesn't really have a noticeable effect on Google search results.

The only time I see anyone talking about PageRank is when they are trying to sell a site.
