Google Page Rank - blah blah blah!
Congratulations to one of my favourite bloggers, Polly Peirce who has managed to achieve that almost impossible accolade: a Google Page Rank. Boy, I'm jealous! Why does it matter? I don't know really but certainly it's an indication that people are reading your blog.
In desperation I asked my techie son if there was anything I could do to improve my chances of a Google Page Rank. I was expecting some sort of explanation about SEO's, keywords, links, trackback, followed by a happy half hour being shown what to do - ie he does it for me. How silly can you get? I should have known that all my new-found enthusiasm was going to get the following response:
"Sure, write about something people actually want to read about. That might help." Grrrrr!
Grrrh is right! Cheeky monkey, isn't he?
But seriously; I honestly think that it's perseverence, Jean and linking!
My other blog Vinca's-A-Thinka! has only started to get traffic after I started to link it in with Polly's Peri-wrinkle's(PR 1/10!) and introduced myself at the irish business women's forum.
I use Firefox most of the time as it's quicker than outlook and easier to use, but it doesn't show the Google PR(if it does I haven't figured it out yet.)
It was a remark that you'd made some time ago that got me thinking about page rankings...

Kai - I gather Google have an issue with PPP. I don't totally understand why but that may well explain why my rating isn't already an amazing 9/10! Yeah, right! Let's hope that Alison is right and time will bring me enough links and readers!

Getting rid of anything in reference to PPP helps :-)
I feel your pain!

My answer to this one is that it just takes time. As you post more, get more viewers and links google will find you.
