When it comes to PageRank itself, I can only assume that Matt Cutts didn’ t go in there specifically and decide to take the PR down from a 7 to a 5. Most likely he changed the“ N” to a“ Y” on whether FindLaw was a known seller of links

Selling links for the purpose of page rank is pointless.

none of our sites have experienced a drop in PR recently, and I can confirm that we have never bought or sold links.

I didn’t experience any fall in PageRanks around the time of the October PR update by Google, but in late February 2008 I have seen many sites, including a few of my own that have experienced a drop in PageRank. I can confirm though that no links have been sold on any of these sites and I have not paid for any inbound links either. I can’t quite understand why the PR has fallen.

I think Google has done a good job by dropping the page rank of sites who sell links in order to help other websites increase their inbound link counts on the Google search index. Link Building by natural methods is not as tough & not as costly as getting penalize by Google.

I knew of a company who had been into link farming and have seen their pagerank being decreased from 4 to zero. So I also confirm what Matts has said.

I don’t think that site does anything special. Why wouldn’t a user just use the regular Google PageRank indicator on their toolbar rather than going to your site??

This site is interesting and very informative, nicely interface. Enjoyed browsing through the site. :) I have a question, What do you think about prsite.eu. I use free page rank on every webpage on my site. I think it is good tool
