This reminds me of the lyrics from the ketchup commercial song by Carly Simon:
Anticipation, anticipation
Is making me late
Is keeping me waiting
Google Pagerank toolbar updates approximately every 3 months, but there’s no way in telling when, but only speculation based on previous updates. Our prediction for the next update will be around April 8, 2009. The last update was on January 1, 2009.
There were many site owners disappointed with the last toolbar update, but it is important to remember that the toolbar is “not an accurate indicator of how Google ranks or values a site,” as Loren Baker notes at Search Engine Journal. Though it is still a major factor.
Have you done all you can to improve your Pagerank? You can by reading some of our recent blog posts below.

The last two PR updates were good for me. I’ve been making a lot of changes ever since, so hopefully, things will keep on the path upward!

Kikolani,
Good for you and hope this one moves in the right direction or at least stays the same!
Good good!!! my site pr 4 ;-)
Fabio,
Awesome and hope it stays that way!
Mine has grown quick and stayed at 3 for a while. Hoping the hours of work ive spent on it will help this page rank at the end of March.
Paramount,
Hard work usually pays off sooner than later. Good luck!
@Paramount
I hear you. We’ve been stuck at a 3 for the last two updates. We’ve put plenty of time into cleaning up our SEO mess and we’ve acquired some quality links. Hoping to see that 4 or dare I say 5 this time around!
PR 3 isn’t bad as long as you don’t fall to a 2 you’re doing well.
I have also been stuck at a PR3 for my web directory for the last couple of updates as well. pagerank is nice to have, but it isn’t the end of the world either.
Web traffic gets the job done very well if you can convert it into sales. My blog is about blog tips and ethical SEO and it is all free.
Looking forward to this update to see what happens to my blog for PR. I had recently moved it from madmouse.com into its own Domain. I change my permalink structure as well, so this could be interesting.
It was a PR3, but dropped last update to a PR2. No telling when the update will happen, but it is in season.
I wish you the best and hopefully you can get that PR3 back!
Looking forward for next PR update. Hope during this upgradation I am getting higher PR for my Web Portal.
Let see, what happen next…
Good luck and hope to see you climb and smile!
I got a PR of 3, in Dec 08 after blogging for about 4 months. I was also expecting an update in last week of March or first week of April.
Would it be too much if I expect a PR of 5 in this update?
That’s great progress in such a short time.
Dear Jhangora,
I have gone through your Blog. Great Work. Your Topic selection are really excellent, basically in India section. Just a little suggestion from my end. you can remove the bold tag in between
– JHANGORA – TITLE TAG. Because this is not require. I think Frank also agree with me.
Congratulation! You have create another milestone for us, that I have been realized – when I navigate your personal site.
Good Luck.

It’s starting now. I see some sites have changed in PR.
Google updated the toolbar page rank again on 2 April 2009. This time they filtered more back links. Previously i have around 70 now i have just 10 back links left for my site http://www.cybex.in. But site rank well on all top keywords. It seems google backlinks scheme updated too. It still loves article links as i did for my site. I implemented news section and rss feeds on the site which rocks well and may be the reason of ranking my all keywords.
how long will it take?
i got only PR1 and it coming and going:(
was expecting PR3

Remo,
The update started yesterday and should be complete in 24 to 48 hours.
lost PR :(
It ain’t the end of the world you have time!
Ive noticed a drop in many peoples pages. Has google raised the bar?
Google hasn’t raised the bar, but many sites are getting penalized.
google PR update is very first
it is updated may 28
I also got good pr
very strange?! unscheduled PR update
It was a strange update considering the average time was about 3 months and this came in just 2 months.
Means, that there will be no update arround 1st July?
Hi Guys,
here is a good chance to get a static PR5 link for free!
JUST NOMINATE AND GET VOTES! thats all:

Last 2 PR updates were good for all of my blogs.. Could you let me know as when would be the next PR update? Do visit my blog and post your views.. take care…
If Google sticks with the average time to update, it should be around 8/27, but the last update came earlier than average (60 days).
and today another PR update! Whats going on Frank?
did GG changed the updating schedule to prevent manipulations? pls give me ur feedback
Br
Remo
Remo,
Google has been updating every 90 days on the last 3 of the 4 updates with the exception of the last update that was 60 days.
wasnt this page PR3 before?
Remo,
It was a PR3.
My Page has going from 0 to 2 for the last update. I am expect it to go to 4 for this update.
I have one question, i have been submitting my website to some of the web directories with page rank 2
1,2 and 3. I manually submitted the links to this websites, will that effect in my google page.
I was also submiting the articles to main article directories without changing the content. I mean I have submitted same article to main directories. Will that effect my page rank and SERPs.
Can you please give me some advice on this.
My website was live from MARCH 2009 and got a Page rank 2. Is it good or bad?
Thanks
Rahul,
Google Pagerank is based on backlinks coming into you website. The more you have the better. We provided a list of PR5 to P8 directories that you should also submit to. Your site is doing well in just a short time.
