I’ve not been around long enough in the webmaster world to experience the frenzy of a Google PageRank update… until now, that is. I still don’t really understand the importance of PR… yeah, people value their links higher, and thus you can get more money off the suckers willing to fork out insane amounts for them, but other than that, it’s just a fooking number on a page that isn’t really beneficial – I’d rather rank #1 for ‘make money online’ than have a PR10 (both of which are very far away at the present moment in time 
). Yesterday was the update… and brought a PR3, which is nothing spectacular, but decent enough I guess. I’ve got to rewrite the Advertising page now, and do a few other things because of it; only nofollow links though (for advertising). By the way, I have the dofollow plugin installed for comments, so from now on every single comment you make will be a PR3 backlink to a site of your choice
Here’s a small pic:
Hopefully this should inspire more debate.
I also finished my latest report – played around with the $7 Script as I was going to sell it to build up a subscriber base (and thus offer 100% commission to affiliates) but it was a bit too complicated for yours truly and I decided to give it out free. Enjoy it as a New Year present from The University Kid Dot Com; you will have to sign up to my list at this link to get it; you can unsubscribe after you receive the report but I suggest you don’t as I’ll be following it up with a few more money making methods.
The autoresponder takes a bit long (30 minutes) to send the email out… I’ve sent them an email asking about it. As for who I used, I used Email Aces (aff link) – apart from the slight delay, they’re relatively easy to use. They take Paypal – Aweber/Getresponse don’t and thus it was easiest to signup with Email Aces; at $5 startup and then $15 a month (the package I chose) it’s not that bad considering you can make it back with one email if you have enough subscribers. I currently have around 35 people subscribed to the list, which is pretty decent – my aim is to build up a 10,000 subscriber base by the end of the year (which is definitely doable, I think). Redirect your friends at the site and help me out .
Last but not least good ole Mike Huang at Bloggin-Ads is having a massive contest with some pretty f**kin’ nice prizes – it’s also pretty easy to enter. Up for grabs are a ton of 125 x 125 ad spots, 100 One Buck Wiki pages, an eBook donated by yours truly along with a whole lot of other things; you get an entry for posting a comment of one of the sponsors blogs (ie this blog) so get started.

I got owned in the pagerank update,
PR3 > PR2
PR0 > PR0
PR3 > PR3
That sucks big time, I was hoping for a higher pagerank for some bragging rights, but oh well.
Congratulations on your PR3!

LEECHING OFF THE PR3. I got some PR3 sites this update. Silly people who spread my links for me! When coming back last night I was blessed to see one site finally is back on page 1 of Google for it’s keyword. Traffic till now (10:37AM) has already surpassed yesterdays starts, which were for 24 hours.
Went down for 7 days and earnings for it got “pwnd” –> pwns.net fer sale.
OK, I obviously didn’t get enough sleep. Going back to sleep.

Congratulations on your PR3. I noticed that 1 of my websites went up to PR3 from PR0 (or grey bar). Wasn’t really expecting the update though, I thought Google just did an update recently :-/

I dont know if traffic picks up because of pr update.
Thanks for the dofollow.

Traffic can increase due to when having PR, this helps you in your SERP positions for keywords like make money online

Ok… not running any ‘HUGE’ sites specifically.. so did not notice any dramatic increase.
A fairly new proxy (about 1 month) got a PR 1
Will check that competition out though

Congratulation on your higher page rank.

Just got to keep sneakily building links by employing some good ole linkbait and it’ll increase loads I’m sure

Dofollow might end up getting you a lot of spam comments, but congrats on the PR update at any rate. My blog didn’t quite make my predicted PR5, but I suppose I should be happy with a PR4 blog. =)

I have a old blog, and what just happened is that I earned PR1 in 5 months. At the first state, I don’t know what mite be the purpose of this PR or what we all know Page Rank. But then as time, days and months past, I begun to understand what mite the purpose of this page rank.. In my own, the PR updates was a thing that google were recognizing that you were a respected site. That what you were doing is good in the google’s eye…
Thank you for sharing your ideas, that is what I always visit here and take a moment to read your post…
