Google Page Rank 2 Attained
I am in celebratory mood. Why? Reward Rebel is basking in the glory of having attained a Google Page Rank of 2, and from little acorns….
The timing is amusing, as it has popped up like an exclamation mark at the end of my previous post!
Although I haven’t been considering quitting, I had been thinking about a subtle, discreet amendment to the site’s direction, as well as building on new keywords.
But no such thoughts are hovering now. A Page Rank is just what the site needed, to reassure myself and my readers that I’m a competent driver, and am steering in the right direction!
Whoop-diddly-doo!

Woohoo! That’s great!
I did notice a great difference when I first got a PR (I’m speaking of it like some kind of position :lol:). Suddenly, my blog wasn’t just one of these “die-overnight” blog but more. Loved it.

Cheers, Zhu, I’m well chuffed, it’s like having one’s efforts validated. Wow, does Google hold power over us or what!

Good for you! I had two blogs ranked and one got PR back after being google-slapped! Not sure how that last blog is getting PR, but I’m not gonna complain…PR is hard to figure out! lol!

Hey Jenny,
Thanks, I’d started to think it wasn’t going to happen because I’m working with extremely competitive keywords, which is why it’s a doubly delightful development.

Hi Reward Rebel,
Like you said, Google has power over the internet. I got slapped from 2 to 0, for reasons I don’t even know.
Anyway, congratulations! It’s a big boost for a blog being monetized, advertisers will look for it surely. It might be a sign, your efforts are paying off! I’m happy for you.
–Durano, done!

Thanks DD,
The Spitting Vessel has such solid content, and wonderful dry humour — the fact that it’s lost its PR is testament to the flaws in Google’s algorithm. (Ssshhhh, I don’t wanna say too much, walls have ears, and I wouldn’t want the big ‘G’ to think I’m ungrateful!)

Congratulations RewardRebel!
I totally understand what you mean…our site just got a PR 2 as well - we were soooooo surprised too!
Well done and keep up the great work

Many thanks, Marie, and congratulations on your own accomplishment. It does feel nice, doesn’t it? Every time I opened my mouth yesterday, either ‘page rank’ or ‘PR’ came out of it!!

Hi Layne! Just got back from solid celebrations. Woohoo!
I’m thrilled for you. If at all, I believe in my heart this site deserves at least a PR4. Seriously!
I felt the same way when I got back my PR from being slapped with PR0 from PR4. I thought it was good while it lasted– having PR. But I also figured it was headed that way. I took in too many sponsored posts. lol! But anyway, I was just too grateful, for my one month old blog to be given a PR4 back then was great. As unpredictable as big G is — I was more than thrilled really. After a month from being slapped came PR2. You know what I figured with all this cycle of giving and taking back of PR’s? I really ceased to care what the internet god has to say and be conscious of getting slapped again. I’m not gonna be dictated with anyone, even by the big G on how I should run my blog.
But I love PR all right, honestly. Because it betters my chances in contributing more in the family income.
Again, I know this site is worth more than a PR2 and I know your readers are thankful that you chose not throwing in that towel. I know I have a lot of things to learn still and its good that bloggers like us can learn from each other. (I’ve been around and I know there are a lot of haters out there, but there are also the good ones who I know could be of good influence in sparking up a person’s blogging career)
Take care Layne! I will be moving on to the grandest vacation I have had in the longest time and I know you’d agree with me when I say this is just the perfect time after having bagged that undeserved honor. Thanks for celebrating with me. It means a lot!

Hey sweet Jen,
Thanks for all the kind words! You make a good point re PRs and who’s the boss — I’m pleased RR now has a PR, but it’s like when I got to the top of Entrecard’s IM category, the pressure is then ON to remain there!
Enjoy your holiday, but you’re a naughty girl… if the ‘honor’ was undeserved, you wouldn’t have gotten it!

Layne,
That was me before this comment. It’s my new site. Actually, I just noticed your rotating feeds (which I was actually thinking of putting in my sites). We must have the same wavelengths. Hehehe!

Hi Jena,
The best advice I can really give you is spread throughout posts and comments on this blog.
But, in brief:
~ always respond to comments,
~ make your site search engine friendly,
~ deploy focused keywords.
The professional progression is Content, Traffic, Presell, Monetize. I’m still finding my own way!

Reward Rebel,

Continue your blogging with passion
