then google did another update in the fall and my google traffic fell way down and since then it's been slowly coming back...

I know it been really bothering me why my category pages are showing no PR, and trust me I been trying to get them back

I really have no agressive cross linking or spam pages out there or nothing like that

I think some of my google short comings are from having to many aff links and I been working on that to see

so give it another BL update and toolbar update and if my category PR dont come back then just drop your links to my site

My index page is a 5 going by the toolbar for those PR whores

I don't have a category trade with you, so I haven't pulled any links. Again, I didn't mean for this to come off as attacking you. I am sure you are busting your ass to figure out how to get your PR back, why it's gone, missing your traffic, etc. All I am trying to do is run a successful site that makes me money.

I traded links with you when your site was barely a month old. How much PR do you think you had????

Jennym, I don't know squat about SEO but it's already been said that PR really doesn't mean . Why are you worried about linking to a site that has PR 0? I think if they had traffic, and from your stats you can see if they're sending any, that would be enough to keep links up and not worry about it.

Because most people agree that linking to what Google considers "bad sites" will also "hurt" you Google-wise. We don't always know FOR SURE what sites are bad, but there are indicators. The things I have mentioned here, and in my other thread seem to be indicators. At least that is what *I* believe. And, since it is my site, then what *I* believe matters.
