I am convinced I have an internal PR problem, thoughts please?
-
I have lost all internal PR on my site when using the browser toolbar, only my homepage has PR now, the rest are unranked. It has been like this for a few months now.
Can anyone confirm this for me please? The site is yourcityoffice.com
If you have any other interesting ways to check PR that do not involve a toolbar or tool bar equivalent. Please let me know.

We were hit by Panda and Penguin and got an unnatural link penalty way back in 2012, Staff at Google confirmed there was no issue, however I have confirmation that we have STILL not recovered from a penguin refresh yet! Even after all this time. However as of yesterday my pagerank is back on all my sub pages!
Maybe this is the first sign of an actual recovery. Even though the pagrank back in the day was a steady 6 with the odd occasion of a 7.

Hey Gary,
Is your traffic OK? Have you been banned?
If neither of those things are issues I wouldn't worry about toolbar PageRank.

Definitely http not https
Ok this gets more strange, I just check on my cell phone as well with wifi switched off and I still get n/a for pagerank on 5 different sites.
PA and DA show up correctly.
What the hell is going on? My business partner in the UK is experiencing the same issues as well as others I have spoken too.
I really need to get to the bottom of this issue, but I am at a total loss right now.

Just in case, you are not trying to look up the PR for the HTTPS version of it. Are you?
https://www.yourcityoffice.com/office-space.php
You cannot check Google PR for HTTPS pages by the way on many websites.
-
Gary, for the page, http://www.yourcityoffice.com/office-space.php
the PR is 3. Checked with different tools and they all show the same. Very strange.
-
How bizarre... have you tried using OSE or AHREFS to see if that displays any PA & DA? Have you tried using PR checker? http://www.prchecker.info/check_page_rank.php

Just installed search status on firefox on another computer and have the same issue! That computer has never ever loaded up my website and is on a totally different operating system etc...
WTF? LOL
-
Same with PaRameter Pagerank 0, I cant understand what is going on.
The homepage says PR5 so I know its not the tools
-
Strange... have you tried using a different computer? Clearing browser cache, cookies etc. (not sure if that has anything to do with it)
-
I just used installed Status Seo Chrome tool bar and it says PR 0 for the same page? i just dont understand it?
-
Agree with Manny. Your site is absolutely fine Gary. I use the Search Status plugin on Firefox. You can also use PaRameter to check the Google PR for bulk URLs. Here you go: http://www.cleverstat.com/en/page-rank-software.htm
By the way, PaRameter is free
Best,

PR5 for home page and PR3 for http://www.yourcityoffice.com/office-space.php using PageRank Status Seo Chrome tool bar.
I use the MOZ bar for PA DA
-
What PR did the page say? Also what tool do you use to see the PA & DA?
-
Hi Gary, i had a look at your site seems fine to me.
When i checked http://www.yourcityoffice.com/serviced-office-united-kingdom.php i get a PA27 and DA46
I get 55 and 46 on your home page.Maybe try reinstalling the tool bar? I find the one in Firefox works best, Chrome is slow to load at time.
Ciao,
Manny.

Is an international redirect hurting my ranking
We're a small international company that redirects users based on their language identifier.
Technical SEO | | _entreprenerd
I've now taken a big interest in and also how it affects ranking. When I look at my MOZ dashboard the fundedbyme.com domain has a higher ranking than fundedbyme.com/en/ for example. Our company wants to target other markets such as Spain and Germany, I am imposing penalties on myself by not having rel="canonical" in place and redirecting to the TLD?0 -

When doing internal linking back to your home/index file what is the best coding course of action?
When doing internal linking back to your home/index page is it best to set the code as linked to "www.thedomain.com" or "www.thedomain.com/" or just "/" - I'm attempting some canonicalization and our programmer is concerned about linking to just the URL as he's saying it's going to be viewed as an external source. We have www redirects in place that come back to just www.thedomain.com and a redirect to send the www.thedomain.com/index.php back to just www.thedomain.com . Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Google PR Rank Question (s)
Hi
Technical SEO | | damientown
My Google PR rank is still 1/10 (www.abouttownmarketing.com) after 12 weeks of daily SEO work building what I thought were quality back links. Does anyone know how often Google updates its PR rank? Also is it a linear measure or link adwords quality score is it exponential?
Many thanks

At present we have 3,331 internal links and our site has only 1,000 pages. Can you get penalised for having too many internal links with exact match anchors. Thanks, Scott

Internal search : rel=canonical vs noindex vs robots.txt
Hi everyone, I have a website with a lot of internal search results pages indexed. I'm not asking if they should be indexed or not, I know they should not according to Google's guidelines. And they make a bunch of duplicated pages so I want to solve this problem. The thing is, if I noindex them, the site is gonna lose a non-negligible chunk of traffic : nearly 13% according to google analytics !!! I thought of blocking them in robots.txt. This solution would not keep them out of the index. But the pages appearing in GG SERPS would then look empty (no title, no description), thus their CTR would plummet and I would lose a bit of traffic too... The last idea I had was to use a rel=canonical tag pointing to the original search page (that is empty, without results), but it would probably have the same effect as noindexing them, wouldn't it ? (never tried so I'm not sure of this) Of course I did some research on the subject, but each of my finding recommanded one of the 3 methods only ! One even recommanded noindex+robots.txt block which is stupid because the noindex would then be useless... Is there somebody who can tell me which option is the best to keep this traffic ? Thanks a million
