- and this blog has gone from a zero to a PR 3.

I read about the update on Joe Tech’s blog, and couldn’t help myself, I had to go and check. The last time I got a 3, was with my first blog (now still a zero), and at the time, it did make feel all warm and fuzzy and appreciated…

Now, I’m not quite sure how I feel! It’s great, right, I can get more and better paid review opps. Can I? Won’t the same thing happen again? Just as I feel I’m on a roll, all inspired and having fun blogging – WHAM! Down to a zero for trying to earn enough to pay the phone bill… I see everyone’s point – PR is Google’s baby, it’s Google’s to do what they want with. I get it. It still sucks!

Another thing – while checking out PPP and the review opps I can’t do because my PR is zero (this blog hasn’t been accepted yet), I see that advertisers want blogs with PR5 and 6. WTF??? Why are there still PR6 blogs doing PPP? Did only the PR3 and 4 blogs get slapped, or do these 5s and 6es know something I don’t?

I know, I sound like a bitter old sourpuss. I’m not. I’m just trying to understand, and preferably learn to do whatever they’re doing to stay in Google’s good books. (Spoken like a true prostitute…)
I shouldn’t care, and it shouldn’t mean anything. It does though, when THE blog ranking system that’s aknowledged by all degrades you with a slap on the knuckles… Where did that warm, fuzzy feeling go???

This blog will hopefully be accepted by PPP soon. I’ll probably be posting for them when it does. (What the h*** – I’m posting for every other company!!!) Maybe I should create yet another blog, that’s ready to start earning as a PR3 when this one goes back down to zero? One to two months of earning a bit, slap, and hey presto, the next blog is ready to take over?

I don’t think so. Just getting to feel at home on this new blog has taken me 2 months… This is where I’ll stay. I’ll adjust to whatever comes – I do it in Real Life, I can do it here too…

Stumble it!

One Response to “Google’s Been At It Again”

Entrepreneur Says:

Thanks for leaving a post at my site. Yep, Google sucks. Good for you though- get better paying posts to write. You are absolutely correct on how PPP still pays more for PR 5 & 6, obviously there’s something wrong! How come Google hasn’t gotten those guys yet.

It’s a mess.

I think its the advertising communities fault for using PR as a standard and Google is having its fun because they ARE the MAIN ADVERTISING site and don’t want the smaller players using their algorithm … whatever it is, when people talk about it as if they know what’s going on, it just makes me laugh.

In the meantime, enjoy the extra mileage and I hope you get your $20 PPP money soon!
