Green bar goes wider - UPDATE IN PageRank atlast
I was getting rather impatient as it took more than four months to see a change in that Green bar, and once again, this PageRank update has offered me much reason for satisfaction. Let’s try to analyze it starting with my blog.
I have spent good enough time to add values to my blog; to the best of my knowledge I have made attempts to update contents based on latest happenings in the web world, which are particularly useful for webmasters; and Google did not seem to do any injustice by updating PR from pale gray (most probably as an offshoot of my childish act before last PR Update) to gorgeous green. It is now PR3, and I suppose fair enough!
One thing must I share with you regarding latest moves of Google in appraising a web page in terms of its PR. There is no need to make extraordinary efforts to earn in bound links. I did not make a blatant attempt to win a PR hike at least with this blog. Rather, I focused on the basics - content, quality content for my readers, and it did the trick.
The green bar is also hanging over hostingnote.com, but considering the amount of efforts I made to get inbound links by submitting that site in over hundreds of free directories, the result in just not rewarding, which shows Google does not count the quantity anymore, and it is the quality of inbound links that should be given top priority. Anyway, anything is better than that gray-bar, which simply absorbs your every inspiration.
With another website which is still under test-bed, I did not get any good news for the home page, but an internal page dedicated to celebrate a very special occasion with some useful content has gained PR (Getting some good Google traffic as well), which shows the perfection of Google’s PR evaluation Algorithm.
This moment must be very disappointing for those who have been experiencing PR drops, particularly for the Newbie webmasters. But just do not get disheartened, neither get hot. My humble advice would be to spend more time in adding values to your website content (Wish I could have done that for hostingnote.com as well, atleast some more informative articles would help), there is no need to go on for hunting IBLs ( poor quality IBL may rather damage your overall PR), and be sure to witness a wider green bar after the next PR Update.
Let’s try to stay cool, please!
