How can I identify causes of a PageRank drop?

Uploaded by GoogleWebmasterHelp on Aug 19, 2011
I use the Google Toolbar to monitor PageRank. I read on the Internet that it gives old and quite unreliable data. Can I have reliable realtime PageRank information about the sites I administer? And how can I identify causes of a PageRank drop? silviot, Torino, Italy

Selling links = 30% drop of the pagerank

@geboyintegra1995 yeah that was a real question.

I think something to get businesses to actually realize that links count in SEO is to have some sort of PR obsession. Too many times business owners just totally miss the fact they need links, so they invest in content, don't see a change because they don't bother about the link side of things, and then they stop investing in content until they hear they need links on some sales copy landing page...

google addwords is selling links??

If Google wants people not to worry about PageRank, why not just get rid of the public-facing parts of it altogether? Sure there'd be a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth at first, but those people shouldn't have been caring about it originally...

@costatropicalgranada AdWords is adequately disclosed to the search engine as a paid link. When one site sells a link to another site, there is no adequate way to tell the search engine that it is a quality link and worth a user's while to see it as something they searched for.
