Press Release Author = Arthur
Industry = Internet & Online
Press Release Summary = Falling of the page rank from 7 to 0 of one of the site of google employee
Press Release Body = While checking some statistics for our page , we noticed a strange "phenomena". It's page rank is sinking fast, from 5 all the way down to zero.
Shocking! A manual penalty by Google? We are not naughty, Big G. Really! Plus, in the past few months, we have had a bunch of sites link to us. Partly due to our articles (which alas is sinking from 5 to zero) as well as our press release. Or perhaps, Messrs. Brin and Page have revised their page rank algorithm from their Stanford days ( explained for mere mortals here ) so that increasing incoming links are given a penalty?
Well, we tried to validate our results and slapped together a little page rank checker tool. To our chagrin, Google maintains it's own rank of a perfect 10. Darn! Wait, let's try our ex-arch rivals, the urchins from Sandy Eggo. Aha-dropping like a stone from a 8 to a zero.
Let's check the one guy, who Google is most likely to penalize for his column on link baiting. Exactly what I thought! His blog has been penalized too and he is now sinking from PR-7 to a PR-0. Don't believe it? Try this screen shot.
