All round the web and in many forums its been reported that there’s been a Pagerank update after a 92 day wait, courtesy of the Google Bots. Now the last update was pretty disappointing with no major ground gained. But this time, I’ve finally managed to break Blogtrepreneur.com into the PR5 range from PR4!
Yep, see it for yourself. At the moment only half the datacentres are showing PR5 but this should spread over the next few days as the results aggregate over the web! I’m very excited…hopefully it should mean some more TLA revenue and a better chance to get me some advertising when I roll out my private ads solution with the new design.
If you don’t know what Pagerank is then visit Google’s Explanation page or read this little extract:
PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page’s value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B. But, Google looks at considerably more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives; for example, it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves “important” weigh more heavily and help to make other pages “important.” Using these and other factors, Google provides its views on pages’ relative importance.
Most webmasters these days agree that PageRank doesn’t have that much relevance as far as SERP’s and Rankings go. But for internet earners like us, it does give us a chance to raise our income and start earning into the higher bands of money. In general though, you shouldn’t see a jump in Search Engine traffic due to this update. Google does this kind of positioning according to keyword every day or even hour, so that the most relevant sites appear towards the top of the results page.
So to carry on the community spirit, how did you do this PageRank update? Feel free to comment or start your own thread on your own blog/forum!

Hey Guys, congrats on all your increases - seems like this last PR update treated us pretty well. I’ve just emailed TextLinkAds and they’re raising my link price to $55, so hopefully that higher price won’t put off advertisers.
Webee, thanks for the link to your post and well done on the PR4!
Iqbal - good question, and one which I will be answering tomorrow when my new design will be finished off and ready to show off to the public. I only released this design yesterday and am still making small changes.
Thanks again for your comments guys.

Congrats! And the new look is awesome. I’ve noticed it loads quicker now, too. Of course, once you get all your ad code installed, that may change.
