Seems like it’s Christmas time as Google surprised and gifted another page rank udpate within 2 months. This page rank update happened around August 5th and most of the users reported that they have seen an increase in page rank. Last page rank update happened in June 2011.
As it is, couple of weeks back Google rolled out an update on Google panda which helped many affected Bloggers to recover from traffic drop. Though for my blog network, everything is still the same and no page rank change for any of the blogs.
Here is a screenshot of rage rank of couple of my blogs:
Though for people who are still waiting to get their first Page rank, here are some tips for you.
Getting page rank is not tough and all you need to do is on page SEO and couple of back links. Though this might not guarantee a high page rank but you will definitely see a page rank for your website. This worked for me and you can read about it here: Google page 3 for a website with no content: Case study.
Apart from that, after panda update, I suggest you to write more quality content instead of filler content. Also make sure only important pages/posts are indexed in Google and not categories, and tag pages.
Here are couple of posts from past which will help you to improve your page rank:

I got a PR for my Blog for the first time, in less than 2 months
PR 1 for my blog. This has boosted my confidence 
That’s really wonderful. Congrats Sagar
Did not know that page rank has been updated.
PR increased to from 2 to 3.
That’s wonderful Vivek… Best of luck
Thanks! My pr is down = 1
Yeah its Christmas and Diwali for many… yayyy… So glad many of our friends got an increase, what they long for. Many say a Pr doesn’t matter and they don’t care for it but i say grapes are sour at the end! It does matter as it is evident of how important and popular your site is. And is a desirable fellow of its proud owner
Thankfully my Pr has been a constant companion throughout last year and till now… though there was neither increase nor decrease in the last few updates, i’m still satisfied! Pr3 for a general mixed mommy blog is fair enough for us
yuppie!!! I just checked my blog’s PR for first time. It’s a PR2.
Hey My Blog is Just one Month Old and it Got PR2.
mine is increased now it is 2
my one blog with less than 1 month age is 1 
Thanks for update. I checked my blog and rank increased from 2 to 3
I have a Google Page Rank of 4. And still i hardly get traffic around 4000 a month. And my Adsense Income is bad, very bad.
Rahul I will suggest you for Blogging with TLD Domain with premium webhosting like Hostgator or dreamhost . Surely You will get Better rank in Seo and you will get more traffic.
No luck for me. I did not get page rank though i was expecting 2 PR
i Got PR 2 But Still Not Getting Traffic Can Anyone help Me……
My blog methods2earn.com went up from PR 2 to PR 3, my another blog edesignblog.com got its first PR (1)
yeahhh…..My site is just 3 months old and it got its first page rank PR2 ..
Very happy…
Thanks for the info harsh ..
My PR is still 0 .I hope will get PR 2 on next update.
after june, there was also a pr update in july also [may be it wasnt a major update]
one of my blogs pr went down in july, now again came up in this update
Congrats to you and the achievements of all your blogs!
I notice PR has been updated too frequent, and more often than usual, very strange, but that’s the mystery of Google
Keep up the good work, Harsh!
My site is 75 days old
It’s root domain get PR 1 and one subdirectory get PR 2
My PR dropped to where it was before june
what is this software you have used to find the PR of your sites..
It’s parameter clearly written, you can download from here http://www.cleverstat.com/en/page-rank-software.htm
My blog got PR 2.It wasnt easy for me to get PR 2 like other newbies who got in few days or even with 5 blogs maximum and no link building!! I never eva could or would be able to predict Google Rankings,Panda effect and all.
June 2011 update brings PR1, now PR2. Interesting thing is that, my domain age is less than 4 months.
