Pagerank 5

with 36 comments

ADVERTISEMENTS



Google caused lots of confusion among bloggers this time, with the PR update penalizing blogs that were selling links on their sites. Thankfully, this blog got PageRank 5 this update.

Pagerank 5

Quality posts, participation in group writing projects, support from fellow bloggers helped in achieving this PR :)

Some of my friends’ blogs had a PR drop, I’m sorry for them. Traffic wise, I noticed a slight increase in traffic a few days before the PR bar turned green here.

    Good for you I was expecting a 6 but got a 5 but I am happy :) at least mine didn’t drop like the other. Plus I don’t do text-link-ads.
