Why has the Page Rank of my HubPages profile page gone up to PR3, then ...
back down to PR-, then back up to PR3, then back to PR- in the last couple of months? My Author Score has ranged up and down from low 90s to high 80s during that time. The PR was PR- even when my Author Score was in the 90s/
Algorithms are a senseless waste of time to try and unravel. Keep on being productive; who cares about the numbers...
The link juice passed from other pages linking to yours have probably decreased because of added links or comments...do not worry about page rank for better search engine traffic it is one of only 200 factors and a very over-rated one.
Hahahaha! It's because you are answering many questions. You just have to keep on providing complete answers to questions as well as voting for them - just joking. Actually I do not know the answer to this question.
Google engineers said they won't care about PR very soon. This is just a way to make people greedy and spam more than ever.
If they eliminate Page rank people won't have a way to check PR and will be cool
In all that time, my HubPages traffic has been pretty much the same. (In stock market talk, the graph is in a sideways channel.)
If Google does get rid of page rank, I can get rid of a tool-bar. :-)
I guess it will not be a big loss. At best, it has been only a very rough measure. Only a rough indication of which pages might be shown at the top of search results pages for specific keyphrases.
Let's hope we can still get links count info from Yahoo for use in SEO.

Am I correct in assuming that any page rank on the "my account" page is for hubpages as a whole, not for my hubs in total? The page rank on "my profile" is for my hubs, right?PS- I, too, am learning so much I feel as though my head is exploding.

Why do Hubpage accounts with high scores have very low Google page rank?I have been checking page rank for certain Hubpages users who have high HP scores i.e. over 90. Google seems to give many of them a very low page rank. Page rank is an indicative metric of web authority according to Google....

Do Any Hubbers Have Google Page Rank Above 6?Delving further into SEO, I looked at the Google Page Rank for HubPages (which for the whole site is 6) and for my subdomain (which is currently 4). Does anyone on HubPages have a Google Page Rank above 6?
