Those "number of pages" in Google are often a WILD estimate. 2. Right now it says 181K on the .com and 8 pages on the .us Well thats 181K pages. Google used to show 262k or so for the old domain. This leads me to conclude that: a) Google is completely inaccurate. b) Delicious just lost 50-80K pages in that move. Either, Or or Both. As another point, Toolbar PR has little relevance compared to Actual PR, and therefore near impossible to get accurate results. It may have been wiser in hindsight to track a range of delicious' rankings and see how they compared in order to have a better understanding.

Either, Or or Both.

As another point, Toolbar PR has little relevance compared to Actual PR, and therefore near impossible to get accurate results. It may have been wiser in hindsight to track a range of delicious’ rankings and see how they compared in order to have a better understanding.

That means over the past month it has indexed 4475 pages a day on average. With 81,000 pages left to index (not including new pages created in the month) it will take another 18 days if it keeps up at the same pace. What I think would have been interesting if we had had a map of URLS on delicious that had PR, and track to see if the redirect impacted that PR score across the board...rescoring the entire site, or keeping the new urls with the same relevance... Looks like it’s up to 181,000 now!
