Next Google PageRank Update Might be in 2014?

Recently Niels Bosch - Founder of AmongTech asked Matt Cutts about Google PageRank Update on Twitter. Matt Cutts gives indications that Google Toolbar PageRank might be closed for this year 2013. Matt Cutts said he would be surprised to see an update happen before 2014. Below is a screenshot of the conversation that reveals more about it:

Why did Google Delay for Google PageRank Update this Year 2013?

Google PageRank Algorithm was created by Larry Page to measure the 'reputation' of websites in the Google search engine. It is a recursive algorithm and over the years support for PageRank has dropped so Google never includes a toolbar for Chrome as well as Google dropped the Google Toolbar for Firefox in June 2011. Nowadays Internet Explorer is the only browser that still has a PageRank display.

If you think Google page rank becomes useless then you are absolutely wrong because Google has not stopped the PageRank update only it delayed even though Google uses PageRank to measure website is good or bad. So don’t think that the PageRank update was never released it was only delayed.

Conclusion

Apart from Google, no one knows how the PageRank algorithm works or when it was released? But don't worry you only concentrate on improving your website by traffic, backlinks, and search, you will get more benefits further. In the next blog, you will taste another flavor of information till then share your thoughts and feedback about this article via comments and emails. Take care and enjoy your life!!!
