Below are our latest PageRank stats, compiled from our database of over 16,000 web directories.  Sorry it has taken so long to produce new stats.  We have been having trouble updating PR since Google changed their APIs in September.  David of PHPLD was kind enough to provide me with a beta copy of an update tool that runs on my local machine, but unfortunately a percentage of sites receive a false PR of NA.  This time around, I ran the script on directories that were PR2 and lower.  I then updated the PR manually in high usage categories.  I then reviewed a good portion (but not all) of the NA directories.  Over the last month, PR in the database has been corrected in various ways. Nevertheless, the number of NA directories is a bit higher than it should. Having said that, here are the PR stats.

Directory PR Statistics as of Feb 11, 2010

Directory PageRank have been very strong over that last 4 Google PR updates. The following table compares PageRank in our database, showing percentage changes between July of 2009 and the present.

Factors that may have affected these numbers:

• Since many of the directories are added by the editor of this site, the directories included cannot be considered random. The results of any given date can be skewed by the types of directories that were added in the previous period.  Of late, we have stopped adding most .info general directories and concentrated on adding niche and regional directories.  The number general directories has grown slower than other types.
• Some directories in the database have a false PR of NA (see first paragraph)

As a result of the factors above, the statistics produced are more useful in showing general long-term trends.
