Ankit — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 12:16:16 +0000

Many times I had seen webmasters starting new threads on DP and many other webmaster related forums after loosing there PR (PageRank).

Finally a Good news for all those webmasters !!

If you lost your PageRank and you are aware of the reason you lost your rank and you think you had solved the issue then the best way is to file a re-inclusion request with Google Webmaster Tool.

According to JohnMu, Its safe and best way to get your PageRank back. Someone from Google will manually visit your site and you will get all your rank back once he/she will find ur website ok.
