Google updates all the time. If your site is down all the time then you are screwed. If its just down for a day or two then google will come back. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

Actually from what I understand , google uses a certain snapshot to decide the PR thingy ... I've read someone here had a site down at the time of that specific calculation , and because of that , his page's PR just got completely removed .
I might be wrong though . -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

PR is related to the links to the site. An empty site can still have PR. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

You positive ? Even if google tries and fails to crawl the url that was linked to ?
I was under the impression that there is also the issue of the relevance of the anchor text to the page's content , so since there is no page content or description , it would be 0 .
Or is accuracy a whole different thing ?
I'm newbie , so if you can really elaborate it'd really help me . I was sure that accuracy is the relevancy of the links to page's content . -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

You are right, crush..... Links and backlinks must be on similar subjects to get more weight on them.What hatim meant was if a site has few backlinks with a page in it, still the site will have a PR, but ranking well in SERP is another issue. I hope it clarifies your ? -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

it may cause some pages to drop from index, but if the site is down only for a day or so, it wont cause any big issue. Google tries to connect for 3 - 4 times before sending a page in supplemental index -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.

Don't worry. If your site is down a few days before google update, it will not hamper google's results. Google doesnt rank your site for what happened recently but over the period of days that started after the last update. It will only affect your site ranking if you have it closed for months .. That too less chances. So, stay chilled. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --
