Next Google PR update
-
When is next google Pagerank update is expected to arrive.
I know it takes one month to one year for Google to update it but I know many people sitting here at Moz know some secrets for sure. -
Dr. Peter J. Meyers, Yes I totally agree with your point. Thanks a lot guys for your help in finding me the right information.
-
I'd just warn that Google seems to be signalling that toolbar PR updates may slow down or eventually stop altogether. If it wasn't for industry outcry, they would've stopped a while ago, I'm sure.
-
If you check the schedule in the link Dr Pete provided then you'll see that the chance is big that in the upcoming months a new dataset will be launched.
-
Sorry guys my question is not about PR is as a measuring stick or a good/bad variable for SEO analysis.I want to know only when its going to be updated.

I don't know anyone who has a back-channel into when Google updates toolbar PR. They've been increasingly inconsistent. The last one was in February, as best I'm aware. Shaun Anderson reports them pretty reliable, from what I've seen:
http://www.hobo-web.co.uk/google-pr-update/
That said, I agree with William - toolbar PR is a very unreliable metric and limited metric, and it's often so outdated by the time it updates that it's easy to misinterpret. Real PageRank is being updated in nearly real-time, and even "true" PR is just one of 200+ ranking signals.
-
The secret is that the number is irrelevant. Sure it might be a measuring stick but it is one of the last thing you need to worry about.
The only people really worried about PR is people trying to sell links or sell a site. Other than those reasons PR doesn't do anything for a site's performance.
Lets say your PR is showing 0 right now, and next update you will be PR 3. You will already be performing as a PR 3 even if your toolbar doesn't say so.

How can I tell if my site was impacted by the March 2019 Core Update?
I am trying to determine if my website was impacted by the March 2019 Core Update. Based on the various articles I have been reading, I do not believe my niche (software) was impacted. I see a very small tick up on search console and google analytics, but it is well within the normal range. Where else should I be looking to see if we were impacted? Thank you!

When Google is going to penalise webpages with autoplaying videos?
Hi, One of the most disgusting experiences while browsing web pages is the auto playing anonymous and highly non relevant ad videos at some corner of the page which buffer mostly and automatically plays. There are familiar websites which been following this activity. I don't think Google has ever rolled out an update to penalise these. Any idea why? Thanks

Nursery franchise UAE Page 1
Nursery franchise UK Nowhere to be found! The page in question (well a section of the site) has been optimised for UK, however, as they do have a sister site in the UAE, it mentions those areas too. The pages I have been working on are now ranking reasonably well to say there is a long way to go, but for long tailed keywords NOT including anything to do with the UK. There are no naughty backlinks with the anchor text to do with the UK, the server is hosted in the UK, it is a .co.uk URL (no geotagging but I would like to know if this is of any use with this type of URL, everything says no, but it cant harm can it?) - is it possible Google due to bad practices in the past have slapped a penalty on the specific keyword area? Not something I have come across previously but I am scratching my head over here! Time for a brew break 😄 Thanks in advance guys! Leanne1 -
Google Page Rank?
We have had a quality website for 12 years now, and it seems no matter how many more links we get and how much new content we add daily, we have stayed at PR3 for the past 10 years or so. Our SEOMoz domain authority is 52. We have over 950,000 pages linking to us from 829 unique root domains. Is this in line with PR3 or should we be approaching PR4 soon? We do daily blog posts with all unique, fresh quality content that has not been published elsewhere. We try to do everything with 'white hat' methods, and we are constantly trying to provide genuine content and high quality products, and customer service. How can we improve our PR and how important is PR today?

Home page replaced by subpage in google SERP (good or bad)
SInce Panda, We have seen our home page drop from #2 in google.ie serp to page 3 but it has been replaced in the same position @#2 by our relevent sub page for the keyword that we ranked#2 for. Is this a good or bad thing from and seo point of view and is it better to have deep pages show in serp rather than the homepage of a site and what is the best line of action from here in relation to seo. Is it best to work on subpage or home page for that keyword and should link building for that phrase be directed towards the subpage or the homepage as the subpage is obviously more relevent in googles eyes for the search term. It is clear that all areas of the site should be looked at in relation to link building and deep links etc but now that google is obviously looking at relevancy very closely should all campaigns be sectioned into relevent content managed sections and the site likewise and treated on an individual basis. Any help that you may have would be very welcome. Paul

Google changing the casing in SERPs of our domain name in Title tag!
I've added NOODP and NOYDIR metas to our pages... but Google is still somehow showing the correct title tag that is on the page, but is changing the CASING of the | Domain.com portion. In some instances, they are still showing a different title tag all together. Why would they be ignoring the <title>tag on the page and placing an uncased version of our domain name at the end?</p> <p> </p> <a download="MxQjo" class="imported-anchor-tag" href="http://imgur.com/MxQjo" target="_blank">MxQjo</a></title>
