Google Pagerank

by Staff Writer

Today is going to be a very confusing discussion about the system that everyone depends on called the Google Page Rank. There have been a lot of problems with the page rank, or not problems, per se, but frustrations that we have been experiencing.

One day you see that your Google pagerank is at a 5, and the next day you see that its at a 3. On depressing days like this, one must think: “How did my Google Page Rank drop in merely one day?”

Well, the answer to the question is that google completely revising how it calculates page rank, and unfortunately for those of us that depend on the google search engine for our page views and traffic, seeing a page rank of 3 does not please us at all.

Well, I must inform you of one thing before you go all haywire on the google page rank, and want to *&%& google from the rear.

The number on your page rank (or your decreased number) does not mean that you will definitely get lower traffic to your site.

For example, WatchingFamilyGuy.com used to have a page rank of 5 a couple months ago, and then come the new year, and its sitting at a lame duck 3.

Fortunately, however, the traffic on the website has been increasing ever since the beginning of this year. Last year, the average visits per day was 200, and now its nearly 300 and increasing.


So, there is some good news for you here, just because your page rank went down does not mean that your website will get less traffic.

Regardless of what you do, do not stop posting or lose motivation for post just because you drop in google Page rank. And most of all, HAPPY BLOGGING :D
