They've basically eliminated any usefulness in backlinks. They seem to only be showing links less than PR4 plus a few more. No pagerank changes so this may be some huge foul up.

Big change for me. A pleasant surprise.

What tool is this? I'm seeing loads of back link updates as well, but no PR movement.

Could it be that the backlinks it's now showing ARE PR4+, only the toolbar doesn't reflect that yet? In other words all of those pages from my sites that are shown linking to other sites actually have a higher PR than the toolbar is currently displaying?

I hope so.

I'm currently unable to look at my new backlinks, as for some reason it's showing the old one again.. but as I remember it, most of them were from my forum, where they had PR 0's before. The main page has a PR5, I'd be mightly surprised if each individual topic were to have PR4+

Mind you, SPF topics have always shown up, and they have a PR of 2-3... strange.

someonewhois · Jul 17, 2004, 10:32

I see many more backlinks, but no PR changes (yet)...

makom · Jul 17, 2004, 15:02

Some changes in PR iof one of my site, I think most of the changes are temporary and will take few days to see end results....

rockyracoon · Jul 17, 2004, 17:13

Tons of new backlinks, no PR changes.

SWD · Jul 17, 2004, 23:10

WSHD? why you post the same post on different forums?

fryman · Jul 18, 2004, 01:11

Did someone notice any PR changes? I haven't seen any on any website

wide · Jul 18, 2004, 01:32

no PR change so far

SWD · Jul 18, 2004, 22:35

google has gone a little crazy, changing pr sites to pr 0, but it should be a temporary thing..

Nathan Malone · Jul 21, 2004, 08:01

Hmm, my backlinks jumped from 12-62. Of course, the real indications are how your rankings do and mine haven't changed much.
