Page Rank went from 0 to n/a?

My page rank all of a sudden went from 0 to n/a. I'm not doing anything shady (never have) and in fact have been getting really natural organic high ranking backlinks the past few days.
Any ideas?

    I wouldn't worry about it. Are you sure you didn't just type in a different extension? www and non www will bring you different results.

      I've counted over 650 links on your home page and many of them are outbound. Keep your focus inbound as much as possible. The page is a bit too long. Try to reduce the outbound links by reducing the amount of content on that page or any other pages that are that long.

    That would make me go from google page rank 0 to n/a? Outbound links?

    I'll try and decrease it, but the nature of my blog is linking out (to deals and freebies), so I can't avoid that much.

      I'm only saying what's obvious, and offering a possible solution. You do what you feel is right... Your site should be what you want and that's all there is to it.

        Oh yes, and I appreciate you taking the time to answer and comment.
        It's just I'm not sure I can help that much. I might reduce the posts on the front page to 5 rather than 10 though.

        I have a link up on my front page right now which accounts for a ton of those outbound links. Just realized that!

    This probably doesn't help, but I stopped worrying about Google's page ranking years ago. They change how they rank like people change socks. Just about the time you finally get it figured out and rank higher, they up and change how they rank once again.

    Frankly, for me, it's not worth jumping thru their hoops and doing a dance, just to rank higher, and then having to do it all over again when they change things up again.

      I know you are right! I was pretty proud of my 0 though LOL. My Moz rank is 4, so I suppose I should be pleased with that and ignore the rest.

      It's frustrating because some companies won't work with me because of my page rank, but will work with sites with less traffic/engagement because they have a higher page rank. So although I try not to focus on it, it's hard sometimes because other people still do.

        I noticed that my site was no longer the first ranking, but couldn't figure out why...now I know!

        I just got rid of keyword statistics. I couldn't figure out how to change it to allow google to index my main page. I hope that helps. How does it look now?

    I think you should spend your time for it with great emphasize and try to improve your situation and you can do that if you mean that.
    Wish you best of Luck....

    N/A just means it is very low. Having to many PR0 links will drive your page rank way down.

    Don't focus on PageRank. Focus on your SEO and how your page is ranking organically in your niche. You cannot control PR and google, PR is calculated a few times a year. You could be 5 today and get 100's of PR 0-3 links then you will see in 6 months what happens..
