A lot of bloggers around the blogosphere have been noticing that Google has been updating their PageRanks. This is still yet to be confirmed by Google but Problogger and DBT have noticed. This PageRank change has happened very early in 2008 and was totally unexpected, especially since the last update happened late in October.
Back in October there was a huge buzz due to the new policies Google adopted that was targeted towards the selling of text links without the nofollow tag. A good example of this was my site Crenk that went from a PR3 to a PR1, and now after the new update it is back up to a PR4 (which is still not where i wanted it to be).
Has anyone else noticed the changes? and if so, has your PR gone up or down? and finally if you removed text link ads has your sites PR improved?

No changes for my blog’s Page Rank but I am looking forward for better keyword ranking which I think Page Rank has little influence over it as well.
Anyway, I won’t be bothered about Page Rank if they don’t help me in gaining more readers.
yes my pr increased from 1 to 2:D
Yup, PR is being updated. A couple of my sites have changed such as dailydosh.net which now has PR it didn’t have previously.
no changes for my old blogs, one of my new blogs has a pr1
We are most likely dealing with a PR update here. PageRank is definitely not nearly as important as it used to be, as G admits, but it is an important indicator potential advertisers use so that it cannot be neglected.

Overall, I have had the majority of my sites stay the same. But these days PR doesnt mean too much at all. Possibly only apply for obtaining advertisers.
my PR went from 0 to 3
