It looks like there has been some sort of toolbar pagerank update over the last weekend. As usual, all you hear are the people who are moaning and groaning about their expectations being dashed against the shore not unlike a ship tossed in a violent storm. Back to reality,,,

For all the real SEO’s out there:

The update seems to have been targeting internal pages and not much true flutter on domain PR was experienced as much as the internal changes. It also seems that Google’s algorithm has tightened specifically on Wordpress blogs and many internal pages that once had PR have now been zeroed. Granted, the vast majority of the time Google’s spiders tend to find the things we don’t want them to find, it can be taken as a lesson on how to build sites that are truly optimized.
