Why does my site have a PageRank of 0?
-
My site (www.onemedical.com) has a PageRank of 0, and I can't figure out why.
We did a major site update about a year ago, and moved the site from .md to .com about 9 months ago. We are crawled by Google and rank on the first page for many of our top keywords. We have a MozRank of 4.59.
I figured this is something that would just take time to work out of the system, but nothing seems to change while we patiently wait.
One more thing to note - when a user comes to the homepage (city selector) and selects their region they will then be cookied and directed to their relevant city site on subsequent visits. But even our city-specific pages (ie www.onemedical.com/sf) have pageranks of 0.
My management team keeps asking me about this and I suspect there is something silly that we keep overlooking...but for the life of me, can't figure it out.
Any help would be appreciated.

Google just pushed out a toolbar pagerank update today. http://www.seroundtable.com/june-2011-google-pagerank-13615.html
-
Yes... I am seeing toolbar green on lots of new content today - going back to content published on May 8th.
-
Thanks for checking this out. When I look at the page, it appears to be a 301, but I'm not looking at this with the cookie set. (What are you using to see the 302)?
Regardless, now that we've addressed this, today .com seems to have a PR of 6, and our city sites (ie /sf/doctors) appear to have a 4. Did Google just update?
-
I used 301 redirects on everything using .htaccess.

Egol you may have some insight on this: When I did a site analysis on www.onemedical.md it 301 -> www.onemedical.com -> 302 -> www.onemedical.com/sf/doctors if it detects the cookie that says I pre-selected sf on the last visit.
How would you suggest they do instead of the 302 to pass juice to the desired page sf or ny?

You are out of luck. I doubt that there is anywhere to get this. If there was a lot of people would be talking about it - especially the linksellers and linkbuyers.
Your management team needs some education or they will be hounding you for this forever.
Management needs to know that PR has not been updated for a long time. They also need to know that they are dwelling on a worthless metric.
Tell them to put their nose into a metric such as profits that is really important.
Hopefully they will not doubt you about this.

Thanks. Is there a way to measure a site's "actual" PageRank (not sure I'm using the right name, or even if I have this concept down...) or is there something else that Google's provides as a proxy so we can understand the relative authority of our site?
Obviously mozRank / mozTrust, but I'm looking for something that my management team might have an easier time accepting...

Toolbar PageRank has not been widely updated for at least a year.
I have articles with PR7 links hitting them since last June and they still have no green showing on the toolbar PageRank.
Moving your domain from .md to .com would temporarily knock your ToolBar PageRank down to zero and it would stay there until the next toolbar PageRank update.
Nobody knows when google will update the toolbar PageRank.
I would not be surprised if they stopped publishing it.

Does anyone know the linking of hashtags on Wix sites does it negatively or postively impact SEO. It is coming up as an error in site crawls 'Pages with 404 errors' Anyone got any experience please?
Does anyone know the linking of hashtags on Wix sites does it negatively or positively impact SEO. It is coming up as an error in site crawls 'Pages with 404 errors' Anyone got any experience please? For example at the bottom of this blog post https://www.poppyandperle.com/post/face-painting-a-global-language the hashtags are linked, but they don't go to a page, they go to search results of all other blogs using that hashtag. Seems a bit of a strange approach to me.

IP: 208.68.0.72 We have recently fixed a number of 302 redirects, but the number of links actually seems to be increasing. Is this something I should ignore / disavow / fix using a redirect?0 -
Crawling a subfolder with a dev site
I am trying to set up a campaign where I am crawling a subfolder of our main site where I have dev version of the new site. However, even though the new site resolves and I have included the full resolving URL but the crawl results come back saying that only one page has been crawled. The site has had a protected block on it for a period of time but this has now been removed. Any ideas? Thanks Nick

Is there a pinging tool to ping all sites at once

I would like to find a tool that does it all for me, can anyone let me know if there is one out there. many thanks

Impact of Adding a Mobile Site
Hi, we ranked very well for keywords trophies and trophies and awards on our home page, trophycentral.com for quite a while (many years). Recently we dropped off the charts, but are not sure why. So we posted this issue last week and got some great suggestions and are in the process of addressing them. However, we are now wondering if we caused this issue when we launched our mobile site a few months ago (timing makes sense). Has anyone had trouble with a mobile site impacting their traditional site? I am wondering if maybe google is splitting the traffic to the trophycentral domain and the m.trophycentral.com domain? Here is the code we have< script type="text/javascript" src="http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/sportsawards/mobile-redirection.js">script>Appreciate your comments!

HTML Forms Dilute Pagerank?
Today, we have way too many links on our homepage. About 30 of them are add-to-basket links (regular html links) pointing to a separate application. This application 302 redirects the client back to the referring page. I have two questions: 1. Does the current implementation of our buttons dilute pagerank? Bear in mind the 302 redirect. 2. If the answer to the first question is yes, would transforming the buttons into form buttons change anything to the better? We would still 302 back to the referring page. I know Gbot follows GET forms and even POST forms, but does GBot pass on pagerank to the form URL?
