New Toolbar PageRanks visible
Roughly every 3-4 months we take a snapshot of PageRank values and export them so that the new values are visible in the Google Toolbar. I believe that another set of PageRanks started going out on Friday. New PageRanks are visible at many data centers, but not at every data center. Why not at every data center? Because some data centers are using a slightly older infrastructure for a few query types that are off the beaten path a bit (info:, link:, toolbar PageRank queries, etc.).

Hey folks, I wanted to let you know that new toolbar PageRank values should become visible over the next few days. I'm expecting that also... - More info on PageRank
Every few months we update the PageRank data that we show in the toolbar, and every few months I see a few repeated questions, so... - Fall weather forecast
Yahoo! gives a nice weather report to announce an index update, and it seemed like a good time to give people an update on search... - Smaller issues
Okay, you've got a fall "search weather" forecast, and it's mostly quiet. Most of the recent infrastructure changes are out at most/all datacenters. What now?...

Thanks for update.
Keep asking you about new infrastructure weather report. Has it been a data refresh / data push during the weekend?

Do you re-calculate the PR completely before exporting? Is it the “working-copy” of the PR used internally on the date of the export? Any comments on truncated pagerank?

Hello, Matt,
Could you tell us when was the snapshot taken? Some people believe the pagerank values exported are quite old. I would say they are from mid to 20th Sep. Do you have some details on this?
Thanks

I would guess the exported values are still a month or more old, based on the observation of a couple sites I market.

Matt, I often wonder, how is the PageRank value stored internally, is it a floating-point number as many people suggest or is it just the integer value itself due to the heavy recursive PR computations?
Saku Said,
October 2, 2006 @ 1:03 am
I’m wondering why the exported PR is at least a month old? When checking the “new” results i came across some “old” links to one of my sites which i removed more than a month ago.

I noticed this update last week. You post answered why the update between data centers are not finished yet. Because of of the infrastructure. I think the new PageRank will not display until all data centers use the same infrastructure.

I have a couple of websites that got new links in the last three weeks and none before that - and these are showing increased PR values so I must deduce the data is not that old.

How do you know it’s not lagged and the PR you SEE now is not months old? One cannot simply count the new links as a link is not always a link come voting time.

Well, I have 3 new websites - one with just one pr7 link, which was visible for 21-23 July, then removed... the website got pr5!
On 28-29 July I started to promote 2 brand new websites - linkbuilding etc (nice pr links for them) - they both are with 0 pr so far
So I think this PR is a screenshot of 21-23 July variables

Over the past two weeks, my toolbar PR has been flipflopping between 4 and 5. I tell someone it is 5, and they tell me it is 4. I check it is 5, but they still insist it is 4. Google’s way of entertaining us
Ryan Said,
October 2, 2006 @ 5:53 am
Nah, it’s at least over a month old.. as I have a website I launched last month that has about 1400 links (according to MSN)... but google still show’s 0... and a PR of 0. (although it’s alexa is still below 200,000)
Looks like the link: update is done in a greater monthly cycle than the pagerank one... or at least vastly differing cycles.
viggen Said,

Hi Matt,
Thanks for the info.
I am seeing exactly what you describe above with my site. About 50% of data centers are reporting a jump from PR6 to 7 and 50% are saying I am still a PR6.
Will the data centers using the slightly older infrastructure be updated in due course, or will my PR be split by data center for the next couple of months?

Atanas has it right, the PR released is a snapshot from around July 21-23, and uses the same data as the August 24th strange, frozen PR/BL event. (http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=129939 - what was that, Matt?) The backlinks released Friday are later than that - September 7th, I think.

Hi Matt
I noticed the pr update, was this all it was? The serp relative to my site have change completely since this pr update happened. You say that the pr update is a snap-shot of an already exciting value within the google system, therefore the serps should not change just because the visual pr changes. Should I wait for a data push to see the true extent of the pr changes.
Deep Said,

Not that I follow PR, but wouldn’t it be better for that livePR analyser thingy to just check one IP address on each of Google’s 44 active Class-C blocks, rather than a random (but fixed) 69 IPs out of more then 700 that are actually active? Although a lesser number, wouldn’t it be more representative of what is going on? ... At present, nothing at all is checked an any of the other active 22 Class-C blocks.
Matthew Said,

I can’t find a Link... but to everybody asking the “are the toolbar questions teh same” question...
No they’re not.. Somebody (i think it might have been matt, or googleguy) posted this at one time..
The real pagerank is ever inreasing..
If you picture pagerank as an ever inreasing exponential graph... then chunk up the graph with straight vertical lines.. that’s sorta how it works..
from the original pagerank papers, pagerank is more than a 0-10 in reality.. the graph analogy above is how they come up with that 0-10 based on it’s real number.
(it’s a much better explanation if i can draw while I explain)

Toolbar PR is not PageRank. The Toolbar numbers are labels, and that’s all. They could equally well have been labeled A to K. Actual PageRank is a number (0 to nnnnnn...), and not a label. Each Toolbar label represents the portion in the 0 to nnnnnn scale where the page’s actual PageRank lies. So, no, the Toolbar values are not the PageRanks that are used by the engine.
I have some thoughts about whether or not the new Toolbar values are old, and why some people see evidence that it can’t be old, and others see evidence that is must be old.
To the best of my knowledge, PageRank is being continually calculated on a rolling basis. If that is so, then all but the current part of the index that is being calculated is always out of date to a lesser or greater degree. The most out of date it can be depends on how long it takes to move round the whole index. The new PR values are a snapshot, and any snapshot must include current and out of date calculation results (PageRanks).
That’s my best guess, anyway. If it’s anywhere near the mark, today’s calculations will include links that were found and indexed yesterday (they may only have been put up yesterday). And the PageRanks for the part that will be calculated tomorrow only included the links that were indexed some time ago - as long ago as it takes for the entire index’s PageRanks to be calculated. So, if the snapshot is taken today, the ages of the links that were part of the calculations can vary a lot. Some Toolbar PR’s won’t reflect links that were indexed quite a long time ago, whereas some Toolbar PRs could reflect links that were only put up, crawled and indexed yesterday.

Michael: Although you list 41 IP addresses in that [i]SEOlogs[/i] tool, you’re only checking stuff on 19 out of the 44 Class-C blocks that are currently active.
On some Class-C blocks you check just one IP, and on others you are checking 4 or 5 IP addresses. Why not check one IP from each of the 44 blocks instead? Wouldn’t that give a better picture? At present there are [i]25[/i] Class-C blocks that are not checked at all - that’s more than half.

It looks like some of the Google tools [ PR , site: , backlink etc etc ] being applied are misleading webmasters into their supposed accuracy, in which many believe, insofar as there is differentiation between DC’s at any one time, plus time lapses and selective suppression of information in total.
It would be good if there was consistancy upon which siteowners / webmasters could rely upon. Otherwise, they have limited status as a “tool”.

PR:
Shorthand for PageRank: the actual, real, page rank for each page as calculated by Google. As we’ll see later this can range from 0.15 to billions.
Toolbar PR:
The PageRank displayed in the Google toolbar in your browser. This ranges from 0 to 10.
Backlink:
If page A links out to page B, then page B is said to have a “backlink” from page A.

Frankly Matt, I think at this point many webmasters would be glad to exchange their 2006 PR values from the latest Google Page Rank update on October of 2007. Funny how those people who didn’t care about page rank are the first ones to cry about it when the little green bar takes a dip. It’s not to say that the website is a mere shadow of it’s former self, it’s just a more realistic reference point minus the inflated links.

I am happy to see my page rank updated, but, most of the my friends who are bloggers and had a high page rank of 4 have been reduced to 3 and 2. Is it because they are not updating their blog, or they haven’t optimized their blog and built links.
Thanks!

My site page rank went from 5 to 6 but my place in google result went up on all keywords.

Could you tell us when was the snapshot taken? Some people believe the pagerank values exported are quite old. I would say they are from mid to 20th Sep. Do you have some details on this?

Hi! I’m new to all this - so apologies for asking a potentially ‘dumb’ question - or one which has been covered earlier. How do I track when a page rank for a specific page changes? Is there software available? All help, kindly appreciated! thx.

I’m curious - does this mean that the PR we are viewing via the toolbar is over 3 months old? How do we see the latest PR.

Yes, definitely you need to query different data centers to find the average PR. It would be great Mat if you could keep PR history and PR prediction updates by date so we all know when will approximately the next PR update start.

“... so we all know when will approximately the next PR update start...”
That would be very good. It’s a specially useful information for domain name bidders because bidders can’t know what’s happening with the domain name otherwise.

I read many places, earlier about the devaluation of PR, how much its true.
I know its not a small thing to deactivate the value of PR term.
Any thought on this.
Thank you

I was very disappointed by my websites http://wolfet.co.uk pagerank after the last google PR update, i thought that i had done plenty enough back linking work to see a big increase in PR, im guessing that i must do 10 times more than i did to see an increase, maybe im just a pessimist but it seems that the big names on the web just get bigger and bigger while us small fish float around trying to pick up the left over scraps, i recently watched some of your many video clips on http://www.youtube.com ,the one explaining what googlebot does with 404’s ect explained with colored M & M’s was very amusing to watch, btw i read here that the google toolbar PR’s are updated every 3-4 months, but when and how often are the google’s PR database’s updated?, is that being updated constantly day by day?
