This is a time honored question among new site owners who want to see more than a depressing 0 staring at them in the toolbar. So, what’s the answer? You’ll have to listen to find out.

Sample forum post: When will google next update the toolbar pagerank?

Also, please leave some feedback on how you like the background music. I’m trying to change some stuff up, but I need to know what the listeners like so I can keep doing those things. If nobody likes it, I’ll get rid of it. I could lower the volume some yet if that’d help, or leave it like this if it sounds good… this podcast is for you guys, so tell me what you like.

Example forum threads:

1. I had a sudden drop of pagerank. Help me figure out why.
2. My site has gone from X to 0. Suggestions, please?
