It seems like a Page Rank update just took place in June 27. I’m not surprised to see that Google has only PR9 now, the brand is so well known, that nobody links to google.com anymore. They simply say Google it, or check Google or only G.
PR is very outdated and lately it is causing lot of issues to Google: link sales, PR maniacs and so on.
A sudden removal of PR will cause some panic and issues to many applications and sites that use PR queries for various tasks.
So Google is probably removing PR gradually. They don’t update for a very long period, so webmasters learn how to live without it.
There are more than 7 months since the last update.
Usually Pagerank was updating every 3 months.
Is Google doing some major changes with the Page Rank?
