Pagerank question
-
Hi, SEO friends
I have a question and i'm very thankful if you could help me.
My website was a pagerank 4 but recently I checked it, and my new pagerank is 0 or the result is: N/A, I don't understand what it's going on. Even this one has 4,627 external links.
Could you help me, please?

Google has stopped updating the page rank data in the toolbars so i would not worry too much about the PR info. Have your rankings suffered? Has your traffic dropped?

Hi
Have you checked for messages in Google Webmaster Tools? It could be a sign of a penalty I.e. Google devaluing a large portion of those 4k backlinks you have.
My advice would be to head on over to http://www.linkdetox.com and run a health report on your backlink profile.
If you need to clean things up a bit, start by emailing the domains that contain those "high risk" links and request removal then go ahead and disavow them.
After all of this start building back some authority by creating great content, sharing and earning solid backlinks from high authority sites.
I hope this helps, if you have anymore questions please ask.

What method are you using to check your pagerank?
Also if you are comfortable sharing your URL in question that will provide an easy way to check.
Thanks

Link Bait - How to use it question?
Hi, Lets say you have two pages, one is your money page which contains products etc and the other is a piece of content used for link bait. Say the link bait works well and you pick up lots of links from it, how do you then benefit your money page from this? I can only think of creating an anchor text link from the link bait back to the money page. Is that usually how this process works?

SEO questions
Hi SEOmoz Friends, good day! I am hoping we could these following questions: Why we had 1000+ errors; consist of diff errors (page duplicate title, missing meta desc, too many links, title element too long,404 errors,redirect errors) while raven tools have only 100+ errors which is meta desc error Are those 1000+ errors from moztool are really significant? How to fix each of the error and what will be the result? we tried some way Meta Desc - provided meta desc 404 error - provide live links dup page title - change the other page's title - will it affect the seo ranking of the page? we believe its yes, so is it necessry to fix the error? title element too long - we understand that some of the pages have too long title, to fix the error we need to change the title to shorter ones, but we are afraid if it will affect the seo ranking, just like the previous q too many links - we understand that these links are from the submission we made previously, how will we fix this error? Whats the recommended number of blog posts per page? Hoping to get answers from the experts! Thanks

Simple Question Regarding Keyword Landing Page
Hi guys, I run a small online business in Singapore want to try to DIY SEO. Been doing alot of reading and using the wonderful tools at Seomoz. This might be the first dumb question here. Its very basic but i cant seem to find anything on it (maybe its too simple). Let's say i want to rank 3 keywords - A, B & C. Do i use homepage as landing page for all 3 or do i use 3 separate pages? ( i tend to think the latter is correct). If I use 3 pages and do all necessary optimization and start a link building campaign, do i get backlinks to point back to homepage or the kw targeted page? Eg. an article submission exercise (not the best thing to do i know but i promise ill only submit to good sites). Are these the right things i should do? Keyword: car horns. landing page: carshop.com/car-horns write a 400 word article about car horns and use as content on carshop.com/car-horns write another 400 word article about car horns and post to say carhornarticles.com at the end of article mention a line about my business dealing with car horns and hyperlink 'car horns' pointing back to ??? (carshop.com or carshop.com/carhorns) repeat, writing unique articles each time but changing anchor text to something different each time, maybe 'purchase car horn' etc. Or should links be divided between both carshop.com& carshop.com/carhorns? I swear i used the search function before asking this question. Hope it's not so silly i dont get any help. Thanks guys!

MyBlogGuest.com Question
Hi, When a blog owner posts my article with a no-follow tag applied to the anchor text link pointing out I kind of get the feeling as soon as Google indexes this article with that tag applied its game over and that article is now dead, even if the blog owner changes it back to follow after Google has found it. I do a lot of guest blogging and it seems as though when Google first crawls the new content for the first time and follows the link something extra passes through. For example: I guest posted on a blog and the article was 'follow', I sore a increase in rankings for about 3 weeks, then the article got flagged in My Blog Guest that it had been changed and I noticed a no-follow tag had been applied. Ranking dropped back down by the time I had contacted the blog owner and asked him to change it, which he did and still it is follow but I never sore rankings come back, it was like soon as Google had seen the article link was 'nofollow' changing it back made no difference. I could be completely wrong as this is just guessing but its almost like when a link is tampered with it indicates its not a natural link.

Duplicate Content Question
Hi Mozers! I have a client who, before coming to me, created a good site with about 100 pages of useful unique content however used services that landed them with a link profile that included 100's of backlinks with the same anchor text (for each pages' few targeted keywords). There are so many backlinks that trying to escape the filters naturally would be nearly impossible...and not really worth the effort if it were possible. While the approach was bad, due to G's new anchor text filters, my question is really about the content on the site itself. There is nothing wrong with it. It is unique, kw targeted without being spammy and helpful to the reader. There are two approaches I'm thinking here: 1. Scrap the whole site (as it wasn't all that architecturally sound anyhow) and try to keep the content for another new site...done the right way from the start. 2. Delete the site's pages where the bad anchor text profiles are pointing and create a new page/URL, using the same content...to get out of the filter frenzy. It is a bit of a weird situation I know, but would Google see that as duplicate content, even if I went into Webmaster tools and tried to remove the pages from the index first? Is this a reasonable solution or is the content a lost cause? Even if I do delete all those pages that have the poor link profiles, would all of those spammy backlinks pointing to a non-existent page on my clients' site effect the site overall? Any insights would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance-

Pagerank sculpting case...
We have a website which has: a) a top navigation with links to top categories b) a footer with links to top categories and to every subcategory c) the following structure: home > category > subcategory > items For usability purposes I plan to remove the links at the bottom and add a drop down menu to each top category in top navigation. I plan to make all links in the top nav no follow in order to be able to do pagerank sculpting for each category (will build links that point to each category and pass link juice to subcategories and then to items, but I don't want link juice to spread across all of the site through links in the footer, which as said before will be removed) Is pagerank sculpting still valid? What do you think of my plan? Thanks for your time.
