Why has the Page Rank of my HubPages profile page gone up to PR3, then?

Hahahaha! It's because you are answering many questions. You just have to keep on providing complete answers to questions as well as voting for them - just joking.

Actually I do not know the answer to this question.

Algorithms are a senseless waste of time to try and unravel. Keep on being productive; who cares about the numbers...

In all that time, my HubPages traffic has been pretty much the same. (In stock market talk, the graph is in a sideways channel. )If Google does get rid of page rank, I can get rid of a tool-bar.

:-)I guess it will not be a big loss. At best, it has been only a very rough measure. Only a rough indication of which pages might be shown at the top of search results pages for specific keyphrases.

Let's hope we can still get links count info from Yahoo for use in SEO.

The link juice passed from other pages linking to yours have probably decreased because of added links or comments...do not worry about page rank for better search engine traffic it is one of only 200 factors and a very over-rated one.

Google engineers said they won't care about PR very soon. This is just a way to make people greedy and spam more than ever. If they eliminate Page rank people won't have a way to check PR and will be cool.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
