How often does the pagerank get updated? You've mentioned that u received a PR2 on 3rd April and now ur blog has a PR3… thats gr8.
My blog now has a PR2. Going by ur performance can i expect a PR3 in 3 months;)
Google updates PR every 3 months(normally).
Thanks for letting us know of our Page Rank, that was a total surprise!
Best of Luck for Your Blog. Hope you get PR3(or higher) soon!
Well i got PR 1
Congratulations! Keep up good work and you will go higher in next update.
Great work. I believe with the latest PageRank Smart Boy Designs is now at a PR of 3.
I got my PR2 also, but my PR dropped from PR3 to PR2, sigh..I expected it to be PR4 before its' updated..too sad to see it. But I'll work harder to gain back my PR and get even higher.

Uh… so many people got their PR dropped nowadays…. Best luck on the next update.
Yes. I get PR 2 (since Feb, this blog started from 21 Nov 2008) in my blog at http://greatskills.blogspot.com and PR 1 at http://freeofvirus.blogspot.com/ (this blog started from 16 Feb 2009)
I still got nothing.
Hope next update I will get something.
Best of Luck for next update.
since i got troubled with my hosting services i loose around 40% of my article, eventough i got busted by google but luckily i still survive and held PR1.
Sorry to know about that. Best of Luck for next update.
Aw.
Think it would be nice if you had a backup beforehand. Best luck next time.
I only have 1 but that is good already as my domain blog is only almost 3 months old. I have started this blog in Blogspot in 2007 but have not been writing since October 2008. Been active again only last week of January 2009. Hope I could make it higher in the next update.
Congrats on getting Page Rank and Best of Luck for next update. Make sure you post regularly as posting frequency is important factor for Google for blogs.
It's 3. I think it's been 3 since I started blogging? I have no idea what I can do to get it higher – even though my stats are constantly increasing, my page rank never changes (at least it hasn't gone down! knock on wood) and my alexa rating moves like a slug.
To improve Page Rank, best strategy is guest posting. We have been using it here and many of the big links come from guest posts. Page rank is very complex and noone knows about how many factors are exactly behind it.
You can also try HeadSpace plugin for wordpress which we use here. Its very powerful and can manage other meta-tags as well. Creating an XML sitemap is also good. Google XML Sitemaps is perfect tool for it.
Also, you can register with Google WebMaster Tools to get information about errors encountered in crawling. Also, focus on links. Getting linked is one of the biggest factors for PageRank.
It's now two, but we can climb even higher. Keep up the good work, pals.
