celebratingAlready read it in Court´s blog a few days ago, there is a PageRank Update going on.

I really did not expect too much of it, since this blog is only 3-4 months old and I haven´t really paying a lot of attention to what I should do in order to get a PR.

I have been outlinking a lot to other blogs and turned dofollow on relatively early in the game, so there is linkjuice flowing out of this blog like a small river. I did not think I would get any PR this soon so my new PR3 is a little reason to take out the bubbles and celebrate!

Congratulations to my friend Jose who finally went from PR1 to PR3. And of course congratulations to my friend Alex for his new PR3. He was the first to contact me and tell me about the update this morning and I was really happy to see we both got a PR3 since we started with our blogs around the same time.

Looks like it is going to be a good day today, hopefully this lucky strike will continue for me since I am participating in two competitions ending today, the huge one Marcus Hochstadt is running and the $25 contest going on on webdigging and if you are participating in them, I wish you good luck!

 

Update:

I was looking at my other sites to see what had happened with all the PR over there, and there was this really strange thing… I have a blog that is not even 2 months old, on a new domain, hardly update it, haven´t been promoting it or anything, it has only a few inbound links and there are only 4 articles there.

Basically the only thing I did was setting up the site with 4 keyword optimized articles and kind of forgot about it.
And guess what… It also got PR3 according to my firefox toolbar!

How strange is that?!

Even stranger, when going to google.com and checking the site through the SEO for Firefox add on, it shows up in the Google Search Engine for a mayor keyword with a PR3 on the main domain and PR2 for the other indexed pages.

Just for the fun of it: it has an Alexa of 24,000,000 something according to the SEO for Firefox tool

I almost fell off my chair when I saw that, and it does make me wonder about the importance of PR and what it really tells us??

I suppose it will all go back down to PR0 once the update is finished, right?
