Hey guy,

Anyone has any idea when the next Google update is?

Google updates continually and continuously every day, day in and day out.

Darn you just missed the last one... only yesterday... next bus comes along in about a month!!!

actually beu's reply is pretty accurate... you may have to wait a month to get into all the datacenters but if you have inbound links and those sites are crawled then they will find you fast.

I heard it was going to be next week? :confused:

Only joking :)

Google updates its index every day, even multiple times a day for very popular fresh content sites, such as news sites.

There are also less frequent data refreshes where data is refreshed within an existing algorithm. Algorithms can also be updated; these are even less frequent but can cause big changes in search results.

Toolbar PR is usually updated every 3-4 months, but this figure is almost useless by the time it is publicly available.

I guess that was what I meant. The PR update. Has that happened yet? I know PR is overrated but unfortunately, it still matters way too much to many webmasters when it comes to link exchange! So I"m hoping my PR will go up in the next PR update!

Thanks guys for all your replies.
