Google Page Rank Drop: From Three to One - A Review

Today, I found out that my Page Rank become ONE instead of three suddenly. What a sad news!! After Google some news about Google Page Rank, I realize that it is normal case especially when Google modify their algorithm to calculate Page Rank. In other words, every time when Google re-evaluate Page Rank, the Page rank of some website will be either increased, reduced or maintained.
Here are some reasons which explain why my PR drop:

1. Lack of New Post Update
In 2011, I only update Xaivier Blog once per week compared to almost everyday during 2010. That is why I only spent around 6 months to get PR of THREE when I started this blog during 2010.
2. High Bounce Rate
Bounce Rate is the percentage of one-page viewers in the website. In order words, higher bounce rate means the contents of the website do not relate to each other well, so the visitors only read the particular post. (Note: We can use Google Analytic Tools to check the Bounce Rate. Read More.)
3. Traffic Source
More than 80% visitors of Xaivier Blog is from Search Engines. It may be good to Google Adsense Revenue. But in the long run, I hope I can use this advantage to increase more direct traffic or the number of returning visitors.
