That would be surprising, considering the numbers of wordpress sites I have listed in google.

However, none of my sites use the default template.

I don't know what happened to it since then, but it was going on for a while. This was for WordPress's website, don't know if it ever hit actual blogs or not.

ya know, alot of mine went from a 4 or 5 down to a zero as well..

however using:
http://www.iwebtool.com/pagerank_checker
it shows a mix of 0's and 4-5's for each of my sites..

i am guessing it's just a fluke for right now as they update PR's

especially for a few of my sites where they should have went up as I elminated outgoing links and gained a few incoming high PR links with good anchor text.. (one pr4 site that is currently 0 had nearly 1,000 outgoing links, and was changed to 0 outgoing links over 2 months ago... and google has heavily spidered the site since those changes were made).

maybe we'll have to wait a day or two to see what happens..

ahh fuck i hope the person who said font type effects google seo was joking.

i changed to wingdings for all my sites last november :helpme :helpme

Wait a little longer. Usually there's some fluctuation during PR update.

Does Google penalize you for lots of outgoing links?

A have the same shit at few of may domains with wordpress (dropped to PR0 from PR3 yesterday), but I believe it's just a google dance. Should be back within couple of days.

Actually it happened to one of my sites too, gone from pr3 to a 0 and the font is verdana.

yes it does

Naughty-Pages 01-11-2007 03:48 PM
Actually, the reason why google dropped the PR of sites using the Verdana font was because of the W32.Verdana virus which poses as the font in infected servers and eventually infects the webmasters intelligence thereby destroying the site.

I can remove this virus for 100 Yen. If you can't afford that, I can take payments of 10 Yen per month for 10 months interest free.

your site wont stay at 6 for ever. do you think your the only one with a website?

to keep your rank, you have to constantly check out the comp's pages and adjust yours.

It is better to remain silent and thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt. :2 cents:

It wasn't like my site went from a 6 to a 4 or even a 3, it dropped to ZERO overnight. I did some Google tests and we were not ranking on page 1 like normal, in fact we weren't showing up on Google at all while at 0. So yeah I made a post to figure out why.

Learned a lot about page rankings in the process. Stuff I would not have known if I didn't open my trap to ask some questions.

Page rankings (SERPs) and Page Rank are not close to being the same thing.

PR was calculated long before you made your changes

To avoid duplicate content penalties you MUST use custom fonts.

I didn't say they were. I said that our site was not showing up on Google. Since they weren't showing up, I did a quick PR check and saw it was at Zero.

I make over six-figures and I check my PR often because I make a lot of link trades. First thing that a lot of people look at is PR before trading. So yeah... I check mine more often that every 3 months.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Also if you butter your toast from right to left then google has been known to reset your PR. So be careful.

For some reason I have my doubts that if you do it has a damn thing to do with SEO or SE in general. :2 cents:
