At night 13.07-14.07 Google has made a BIG Google Tool Bar Page Rank Update!!!

Whose sites changed their Page Ranks?

Several members here reported noticeable toolbar PageRank movement: flagged an update, suggested it may have been rolling earlier, and and noted increases. The most useful thing now is not to argue timing, but to verify and act on what the change actually means for each site.

Toolbar PageRank is a single, public snapshot of one of Google's link-based signals. It is coarse, updated only periodically, and can lag or differ from other signals Google uses to rank pages. Treat it as an indicator, not a definitive ranking score.

Quick verification checklist

  • Check the toolbar PR from more than one machine or location to exclude local cache differences.
  • Use the cache: operator (for example, cache:example.com/page) to see Google’s last cached copy and date.
  • Watch organic search traffic and ranking positions in your analytics or rank-tracking tool; those matter more than the toolbar value.
  • Inspect inbound link data (server logs or a third-party link tool) to see whether new high-quality links arrived before the change.
  • Review robots.txt, meta robots and canonical tags to ensure pages are indexable and canonicalized correctly.
  • Monitor for several days; isolated toolbar blips sometimes settle or correct.

Practical advice
If the change is genuine, keep doing what earned it: useful content, natural link acquisition and clean site structure. If the change concerns you (big unexpected jump or drop), prioritize root-cause checks above panic fixes: traffic patterns, recent link campaigns, and technical issues will tell you more than the PR number.
