Google’s First Gift
I just got my first PR1 rank upgrade! I know it’s not that much since some people got an upgrade from PR0 up to a whopping PR4 but an increase is still an increase that’s why I’m grateful for it. Thank you, Big Daddy Google.
What’s a PR anyway?
PR or PageRank™ is Google’s system for ranking web pages that was developed at Stanford University by founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin. A higher PR represents how valuable your page is on the web. The numeric value ranges from a PR0 to PR10. Most popular websites have a PR10. Although a high PR doesn’t affect your rankings in SERP (Search Engine Results Page), it is still important if you’re “new” into the make money online niche. Aside from traffic, it is one way to increase the chances of attracting advertisers and sponsors to your website too.
The last Google update was October 2007 which slapped a lot of websites who are selling links. While some employ different strategies to have a higher PR, nothing beats an organic incoming valuable link. I suggest you don’t tamper the rules if you don’t want to be Google slapped. Google has a sophisticated algorithm of knowing everything. Do you think that this post which brought my diggstruction has something to do with this PR upgrade? I want to know your stories too. Feel free to post your new PR ranks.
