Thanks! I stopped worrying about it quite a while back. It is still disconcerting to see such drop at one time.

I know it’s kinda late to jump in (just discovered your blog), but a reconsideration request, in my experience is pretty useless. They just glimpse over your site it seems and don’t bother to tell you if they “fixed” the issue or not. As for Pagerank, i wouldn’t worry about it since Pagerank is not everything – it’s the traffic that counts, as long as you are ranking for a good group of keywords, don’t worry about Pagerank.

Hi Benjamin – I submitted a reconsideration request but I don’t know if that ever did anything. When the next page rank update happened it went back up to a 3. I didn’t really do much of anything – maybe the request helped but I have no way of knowing.

Hi Kim, I just ran across your post when searching for the same issue. As of last week I had a PR6 but it has now doped to a PR3 as well.
As far as I know I haven’t done anything spam related that that would warrant this type of drop in PR either.

I notice your post was from a couple of years ago and am curious as to if your could share some insight into how your got your PR back up to what it originally was.

Thanks so much,

Ben

OK, I was wondering as a couple of my pages have dropped from PR 1 or 2 to Unranked, though my main site is still PR2, so I might just leave it rather than anger the Google Gods :)

You are lucky with the time zones – currently the games are at 12 midnight and 4am here in Australia! I have had to adjust my bodyclock to fit in, luckily I normally work from home anyway so can manage it just about!

Hi Sean,

I don’t remember what I said exactly – I just asked them to reconsider it because I couldn’t see any reason for it to happen. I did not receive a response or an explanation. At the next page rank update, it went back to what it was before.

In in EST and the times for the matches are working out great for me – 1 or two in the morning and one in the afternoon. If I’m half interested I sort of watch while working or if it’s one I’m really into I watch it. My work hours have been odd but it’s been so worth it :-)

Kim, just found this post.
Just curious what you said in your reconsideration request, and if google gave any detail in the reply (or do they even reply?!)

PS how are you going in your world cup watching?
I’m totally adapted to South Africa time and only missed 2 games so far:)
I love it, but like you I have one eye on July and some well earned sleep (while its dark!!)

Hi – I didn’t know Google had removed that. I haven’t checked Webmaster Tools in a long time.
