**M.Zeb Khan** · Aug 9, 2004, 22:48

my few sub pages which were PR7 moved to PR6,

and few subpages got lots of backlinks, (15 moved to 658 backlinks)

BUT i have the same Ranking in the SERPS

it's been a long time since PR/backlinks updates have been desynchronized with SERPs updates.
Are you seeing those changes today ?

**quenting** · Aug 9, 2004, 23:26

damn you're right my backlinks updated as well. PR not changed yet though.

**aliEn** · Aug 10, 2004, 00:34

Backlinks updated. PR update coming soon?

**gengar56** · Aug 10, 2004, 00:39

We saw backlinks changing on different Google servers but no indication of whether a PR update is coming.

**I, Brian** · Aug 10, 2004, 05:17

Either my memory is too short, else the DCs haven't all caught up (I'm too lazy to check!

).

Otherwise, there's little change in backlinks showing.

**Magic2K2** · Aug 10, 2004, 06:04

I'm finally getting some backlinks, but I don't see a PR change yet.

**devised** · Aug 10, 2004, 07:53

Online got backlinks updated. Still no PR update on my sites. I hope this doesn't turn out like last month...

**IncTalk** · Aug 10, 2004, 07:54

Backlinks for all my sites dropped by between 500-800 links. Any idea of what could cause this?

**someonewhois** · Aug 10, 2004, 08:27

IncTalk - All your sites being how many? Do you know which links? It could be forum links etc. that just became irrelivent. That, or they fixed up the screwup they did in July and now it's back to normal.

My new site is still PR0, so I take it the update isn't quite completed yet.

**IncTalk** · Aug 10, 2004, 08:30

Well, last month I had a huge jump in my sites (5 of them) so maybe this is just a correction.

I did loose a few key backlinks. I have a PR7 backlink to contractortalk.com that isnt' there anymore. Was there last month.

**lo0ol** · Aug 10, 2004, 08:31

Backlinks went down slightly for me, which was expected. No PR change, which is good.

**someonewhois** · Aug 10, 2004, 08:34

Is the link still on the site? DC's could still be fluctuating...

**IncTalk** · Aug 10, 2004, 08:40

yes: The link is still there...

My backlinks on ContractorTalk.com went from 1830 to 1,060!

My backlinks on DIYChatroom.com went from 1350 to 1,030

Both are PR6 still (hopefully it will stay that way)

**fremin** · Aug 10, 2004, 09:18

I noticed the same..by blacklinks halved....PR is the same though

**goughb** · Aug 11, 2004, 07:23

Some up some down for me..

**goughb** · Aug 11, 2004, 07:29

Say, does anyone recall the last date this occurred?

**Magic2K2** · Aug 11, 2004, 08:06

It was around July 17th, I believe. Last PR update was sometime around 200 BC, though.

**someonewhois** · Aug 11, 2004, 08:36

200 BC?! It happened again when Jesus touched the internet in about 30AD too.

**shabbirbhimani** · Aug 22, 2004, 02:27

few subpages got lots of backlinks, (15 moved to 658 backlinks)

Google has now fixed the stuff and now it shows all the backlinks which wasnt the case before where it just showed links from sites having PR4 or more.

Thanks
