The hot topic that currently blogger,webmaster or internet marketer discussing is about the google page rank update.Many people still wondering when the next page rank(PR) update.Some people said it is three months from the last page rank update.Some people said at the end of December or January and some said this week (end November 2008) is the time google update page rank.

Page rank is interesting topic to be discussed.Yesterday I had chatted with one fellow blogger about his page rank.He said google google just update his page rank to PR 4.When I check his blog it is true his blog have page rank 4.Then I surf on search engine and forum about the latest news about page rank and I found that no blog or website discussing or writing about the latest news about page rank.Therefore what can I summarize here is google maybe have update page rank early for some site but not all site officially.There must a time where google update all site in one time.Hopefully it is on December or January.

For newbies who not clear what is page rank below are brief information about it.
“PageRank is a numerical value which represents the popularity of a website.This is status given to websites by www.google.com.PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page’s value.PageRank is Google’s system for ranking web pages.A page with a higher PageRank is deemed more important and is more likely to be listed above a page with a lower PageRank”

PageRank is from 0 - 10, with 10 being the highest number awarded.For your information google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B.But, Google looks at more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives.It also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves “important” weigh more heavily and help to make other pages “important.”
