PR drop because of new pages?
Hi there,

Question: My homepage had PR 5, but it was poorly structured. Lately I updated the whole site and now Google can index much more pages. Before the (quite heavy) update only the homepage was indexed.

Now that Google knows much more pages, is it possible that the PR from the homepage dropped to 4 because it is much more devided over other pages now?

I'm asking this because some pages which link to me got a penalty/devaluation last week. I'm in a doubt now whether my PR dropped because of my site structure-update or the devaluation of the links...

Indexing of more pages does not distributes PR.....

Does website canonicalization may be reason of PR drop?

Thanks so far guys, but I don't seem to have the answer I'm looking for.


@Prof.stan: Well, the site was on another url before, but it is 301 redirected to the new url and the old URL is not even in the index now. So there are no duplicate content issues as far as I know.

"Now you have to check your link back. For PR only link back from any website. ok you right more out bond links from home page you have loose your PR because again concept of link juice."

I don't totally understand this, can you try describing again? Or somebody else know exactly what Prof.stan means?
change quite radically (could this be the reason that reduced the PR?). The menu used to be spider-unfriendly flash for example, but now it is spiderable and Google seems to have no problem spidering the site and finding new pages...

Although indexing of more pages wouldn't normally reduce your PR, finding more pages could...
If the site was built in Flash and Google couldn't see anything other than the home page, the sudden inclusion of many new pages could reduce the home page PR.

(I *think* that's what Prof Stan was saying too)

In fact it could also be loss of credit from some inbound links, general devaluation of page rank, loss of PR TO some linking pages etc etc

EGOL agrees: Here's a great answer. Wish I had more rep to give you.

Thank you very much CickyB. So both reasons I suggested are possible.

By the way, the homepage wasn't totally in flash, only the menu was. So a certain amount of pages WAS spidered (because offers on the front page linked to other pages with more info about the offer, and from those pages product-pages were linked, etc), but after implementing the new structure this number tripled or something like that.

Thanks again. If anyone has additional info, please feel free to post it...
