Google hit BMR's PR?

Hey guys,

Using BMR for 2 months now but only recently I see too many pages with PR 0 that my posts were published on and it wasn't before the PR update of-course...

I think the last update hit a lot of BMR's PR in their sites, do you feel it too? Too much PR 0 and 1 and not enough high PR like I got before the PR update.

Thoughts?

  • Well that's normal, most of their websites probably lost PR after the update considering their network becomes junk over time. That's why they probably keep adding new websites to the mix.
  • Ive tried them out before, probably just going to add more domains to replace the old ones. Dont worry about it. Seems like a great company

    • Thanks for the posts guys, guess I'll have to post and hope big G will advance my sites up, so far they dance between pages or places on the same page....and they are not that competitive at all....

    • I've noticed that the PR has shifted, but I'm not overly concerned. I still have a ton of high PR links from them. I think they'll just continue to work on it and get it fixed.

      I'm impressed with their service and I still see good results with the service.
    • How could that possibly be?

      Something is lost in translation...

  • I suspect they use dropped domains that had PR and then put general blogs on them. Eg you might have a spanish beef association site (randomly picked example - got no idea if they actually have one of these) that had a PR of 4. They get the domain, put a blog on it and you post your article. You know have an article on cell phones (yours - again, random example) sitting together with dog training, SEO, get your ex back etc articles. It went from a very targeted to a very general site. The only way for this site to go is down. I could be wrong (and if I am, please come in and say so in the comments), but that is how I suspect they work. Great for initial PR boosts, not too great for maintaining the value of those links.
  • PR changed a lot this time, from the changing results, I think google focus more and more on content now, and its computing methods are more accurate with more consideration together with the content and the link numbers and the latest update for one page.
  • Hey....that's fine if ya'll are worried about BMR. I've got 10 sites I've posted BMR backlinks too and every page of every site is either on page 1 or pretty darn close!

    This is normal. With every Google update comes changes in Page Rank. These BMR sites with good PR domains, now set up as blogs, still have the good backlinks pointing to them that helped that domain achieve it's good PR.
    However, a Google update might have affected the backlinks pointing to the domain.
    Yet, the PR will probably come back with the next Google update.

    For those of you worried about your post falling off page 1 of the BMR site, I use Backlink Genie to post blog comments and forum profiles to every single one of my BMR blog post URL's so there are backlinks pointing to that specific post. And have seen very good indexing rates because of it.

    So far, BMR is a huge part of my backlink strategy. And I'm not about to change unless I see something drastic occur. Which I have not seen. Actually, it's good to get some 0 PR posts. Makes the backlinks look natural in the eyes of Google.

    Alot of you guys are missing the point totally. If you look at the overall big picture, I personally feel you are missing out on a great backlinking tool with BMR.
    But that is fine if you want to quit using it. Just allows me to take more advantage of the network!

    • Great point Agoge.

      Like you I continue to see great results. Also, what I like about BMR is they are totally transparent with the PR. I've got a ton of links that the PR changed on, but at least they show it. Also, all the new links I've added are all PR1+.

      Great service, great customer service, and they tell the truth. What's not to like?

  • I think people put too much emphasis on the PR of the blogs on BMR's ranking. I've seen no drops in my keywords across the board since the PR update, which tells me the power in BMR's service is not the high PR nature of their blogs, but rather the 95% indexing rate of each link.....

    Either way, I'm still a big fan of BMR. Makes me job simpler...I like simplifying my job - allows me to do more work.

    • Exactly my sentiments. Other services get you hundreds of backlinks by clicking a few buttons, but often you will find only 5% of these links ever get found.

      By using BMR, you are virtually hand-placing links back to your site, so you are in complete control over how many and anchor text etc.

  • im now to BMR, in my dashboard it shows i have PR2-5. When i go to these pages they are PR0, and the main domain is PR2-5. Is this the same thing? Am i getting the PR of my post page or the main domain?

    • Your article is basically a new page on a blog with page rank 2-5. Because your page is a new page, your page will be PR0. But because the blog has page rank your new page will get some 'link juice' from this. With time your page might get PR as well.

      When your new article is posted, it will be posted on the home page of the blog. So you will get PR2-5, but for a short while. The reason is that your post will move off the home page to make space for new pages.

      I have been very happy with BMR so far and you should see good results.

      Hope that helps.

  • BMR is great for ranking pages. I've gotten many long tail keywords with 200-1k monthly searching to #1 using a few BMR posts : )
  • I haven't really noticed that I must say. I've even got a few PR5 backlinks recently, which I never got before.

    • I have been with BMR for 8 months now with 1992 post to date.

      I have found that when I add a website to BMR the ranking shoot up in the first 3-6 months. It will get you to page 1, but then it becomes a none mover and the BMR effect dies.

      So what I do is add my website to BMR for 3-6 months and then replace it with another website. The website that is removed I will do blog commenting and ALN blog posts.

      It is best to have a variety of type of links and not use BMR only for rankings.

      PS. Something else about BMR. I have 529 PR0 of the 1992 links. Some of the blogs lose the PR after an update by G. Normally every 3 to 4 months. But I have not seen lose of rankings in SERPs because of this.
  • It is time for another "great" project. Forget about BMR
  • Even though some of their websites dropped PR, I believe BMR is still strong. I some dropped PR, I know some also increased
