Nervous Page Rank Changes
After the last pagerank update, we can feel the blogosphere mopping its brow in relief, or regret… depending on what the result was for bloggers. For hours, the google data centers were down and various resources are showing inconsistent results. Bloggers are panicking.
See, over the last months, contests upon contests sprouted all over, hoping to be blogged by other bloggers .. and fervently praying that the links are dofollow. I know a few bloggers who made a killing with paid reviews… Everyone went crazy with trying to get one-way links. With the sighs of despair caused by Alexa drops came the anticipation of the PR update this May.
Despite what people say about pagerank being unimportant, it is still what advertisers look at first, and hence a bigger deal to bloggers than they would admit. One of my blogs decreased in PR but a couple more increased. I don’t know how I should feel yet. I’m just numb (and still PR0).
