Does Changing Nameservers Affect PageRank?

A lot of people have been asking this question on forums and blogs. Sometimes, people ask, “Does changing nameserves affect SEO?”. Personally, I don’t believe changing nameservers or Web hosts affects PageRank, SERPs, or SEO. I do believe, though, that changing site content, especially a radical change to some unrelated topic,  will affect your  SEO efforts and SERPs. This was exactly what happened to PageRank Domains.

A couple of weeks ago, we started moving our Web sites to a new Web hosting provider. I thought we had already backed up everything — but I was wrong. When we restored the WordPress database for page-rank-domains.com, it was empty. I didn’t have time to write new posts for page-rank-domains.com, so we posted a couple of non-PageRank related articles (I was afraid we’d lose our PageRank 3 if I left the site empty for too long).

This morning, I remembered to check on this site. I checked the PageRank; it was still PageRank 3. And then, I checked the search engine positioning for the keywords “pagerank domains”. Alas! We were nowhere to be found! Before the Web hosting change, we were in the number one or number two position.

So there you have it — my own personal experience on nameserver changes. Again, it does not affect your PageRank or SERPs or SEO. But, if you change your site content to something unrelated, your SERPS and SEO will most likely suffer.

How do we fix it? I think I will do these:

  1. Delete the unrelated content.
  2. Write content that is related to the original topic – PageRank Domains.

I’ll start with this post. Now let’s see how long it will take for page-rank-domains.com to go back to the top position for the keywords “pagerank domains”. I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
