When Kuya realized that Google just had the Third Quarter PR update, I immediately checked all the blogs that I monetize and got a bit dismayed with their updated page ranks.

But actually, this page rank update was so-so for me. Maybe it’s because I only have a few websites to maintain, so the impact was not too strong for me. Out of the ten websites that I started from scratch that I monetize (or yet to monetize), two retained their pagerank (I’m just not sure if their PRs are yet to be updated), three increased, two lost their PRs and three decreased by one notch. The two sites that lost their PRs are those that I just bought the other day. Too bad for me. Anyway, I know that there are downsides of this business and this is just one of them.

Then, when I was to blog about this PR update, I realized something.. I actually almost forgot that I still have another blog – this blog! Surprisingly, I got a pagerank of 2!!! Imagine an 85-day old blog jumping from PR 0 to 2! To think that I haven’t made any efforts to promote my blog, this page rank increase is really something to celebrate for me.

I hope that the next page rank update would be less harsh to me and to all bloggers out there.

Kanpai to all bloggers and to all readers of judysungit.com!
