Google PageRank update is knocking the doors of your blog, are you Ready?

March 24, 2010 - Last Modified: March 24, 2010 by Hesham Zebida

Are you bored of hearing about Google PageRank over and over? Well there must be some other bloggers out there who are more excited to know what PR Google will decided for their blogs this time more than you do. But both of you are invited to a little chat today about Google PageRank and SEO.

The coming PageRank update is probably by will happen at the end of this month, march 2010, I am not so sure as no body knows the exact day, but it means that there is no time, so I am not going to ask you what you are going to do, but I will ask you what you have done for your blog to get a higher page rank? And are you ready for the next Google PR update?

Maybe some of you don’t believe of don’t care that much for pagerank, but personally I believe of Google PageRank, because I follow what advertisers are looking for in a blog.

I am waiting for the next update since the last one occurred, it a part of my blogging challenge, I need to know if I am going toward the right way or not, and because I have worked so hard on the last three months on FamousBloggers.net blog, I am looking forward to see the results of my work, I will so excited if I got a page rank of 4 for this round, as I think a 5 stars Page Rank is not easy to get and it probably needs more harder work and domain name age.

Have we earned any experiences?

If you are a regular reader of FamousBloggers.net blog, then I am 100% sure that the last three months of visiting our blog has changed the way you look to YOUR blog, as we was publishing all money making related topics for you, and we was exchanging our experiences everyday together while commenting and networking, so there must be a change happen during that time!

There were great bloggers doing awesome guest blogging for FamousBloggers.net, and no matter what we do we will never be able to return their favor, those bloggers were sharing the best of their work with us, and publishing it to our blog believing it’s the right place for these content to be placed, and trusting us to take care of their content, and we will work hard to meet their expectations.

Have we reached the end of post?

Absolutely NOT! This is only the beginning of this post, I am done with the <head>, and I will move to the comment section <body> to talk with you and have a little good chat about anything comes into our mind regarding Google PageRank and SEO, what we have learned from each other, and what’s our expectations for the next Page Rank update, so meet me below and let’s have some fun.

Richard Cummings says:

Pagerank definitely does not have the importance that people give it. However, since advertisers factor it in, you should too if you want to make money from those advertisers. .-= NEW from Richard Cummings´s last blog ..Web Authentication Using PHP and MySql =-.

@ Hesham, pagerank update complete, I now have pagerank 4. I am so happy. .-= Onibalusi Bamidele´s last blog ..Interview with Benjamin Lang of ben-lang.com =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  WOW.. this is great :) I told you ... you will need that blog! Are you going to remove the redirection?
  - Onibalusi Bamidele says:
    
    Hi, The redirection will transfer the pagerank within a week or so, which means youngprepro will have pagerank 4 very soon(I think Google has not noticed the redirection yet). I have discovered that most of my posts are also having pagerank 2, my twitter profile @dataentryforall is 5, your twitter profile @famousbloggers is also 5:-) Thanks a lot. .-= Onibalusi Bamidele´s last blog ..Interview with Benjamin Lang of ben-lang.com =-.
expertinn says:

As It is time to update PR , I think google is aware of April Fools day to update pr on Ist April 2010. LOL!!! You may seen there are some tools available to check the pr. These tools are basically set to measure only a few variables while as google measures are several times sophisticated. NO tool can tell you exact prediction even there are some websites tools which show very high or very low results.One you mentioned is showing pr10 is just set to display that while some of them are set to display zero. If you want to see reliability of the tool just check their own site for pr or some known site and you will see how the trend is set by so called tool masters.(say I have given subject for article on the issue)
- Hesham says:
  
  That was lots of fun ;) Google updated now.. your network got pr of 2
Matt says:

I've only been into blogging for the past year or so and was seeing very good Google rankings... up until about a week ago that is! I don't think this update was kind to me as all my best keywords have all but disappeared. It does seem to be slowly coming back - I'll be interested to see further developments regarding this Google update. Cheers for the great posts! .-= Matt@Michael Jordan Cards´s last blog ..Cards recommended for new Jordan collectors =-.

  Matt, the update is done!

Omer Greenwald says:

Hi Hesham, I really hope the PR will update as soon as possible, because my blog (which is already 2 month old but has some quality backlinks) still has PR 0 :-) There are some websites that claim to show you the "real PR" (the one that isn't published yet and resides in Google servers only) but I didn't find it to be true. .-= Omer Greenwald@webtechwise - for bloggers and web developers´s last blog ..URL Redirection in WordPress – the Problem Solution Approach =-.

  Hey Omer, I think it'sonly a few days and we will hear some news about it! I hope will get some PR Luv! And yeah, there is a few sites do this but I don't think has anything to do with the real Google PR

    thanks man, same here .-= Omer Greenwald@webtechwise - for bloggers and web developers´s last blog ..URL Redirection in WordPress – the Problem Solution Approach =-.

PR to me doesn't mean much since I'm not looking for advertisers. I only concern myself with things I can control like links, content, visitors, conversions and stuff like that.

I have mixed feelings about page rank so I keep my focus on updating my blog with relevant posts and helpful tips that readers would get something out of because this matters in the long run. .-= Mathdelane @Software Critics´s last blog ..Virus Alert: Facebook Password Reset Confirmation Support Message Attachments =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  Actually I believe that updating your blog with useful stuff is the best way to reach the hearts of your readers, and PR and other ranking stuff is the best way to reach the heart of advertisers! Anyways, just keep the good work and big success will be to people who really want it!

- Hesham says:
  
  I think you will get something Dennis, if you didn't I will personally not feel good, I mean after the huge amount of comments allover the internet this should pay off!
  - Dennis Edell says:
    
    I'm not sure how or if comments on other blogs relates to PR...if they did, I'd have a 9. lol .-= Dennis Edell @ Direct Sales Marketing´s last blog ..Holy Power Outage Batman, Not Again! Yep, Another Two Days Shot to Hell… =-.
Mississauga Web Design says:

That would be nice. When people are trying to take out their focus on PR because of the last update by Google...now here comes another change...it better be good. We'll be expecting a write-up from you when it happens. Thanks.
- Hesham says:
  
  Well, if we got pr or 4 or 5 then it's party time :) If not then I must shut up and keep blogging lol
Latief says:

Always interesting if we talk about PR even PR not my goal but its like Three Months Party Four Times A Year :D I want at least PR 3 with my new WordPress Blog because I can made my Blogger blog PR 2 at the first PR update. But it up to Google, hope Google decide to give PR 4 for my blog, lol! Good Luck to you all! .-= Latief@AnotherBlogger´s last blog ..Easy EntreCard Contest From CravingTech.Com =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  I have a feeling that you will get the pr of 3 if you wished hard from your heart :)
  - Latief says:
    
    According to My Alexa Stat I have a great traffic and more than 50 links I hope Google will considered Alexa's statistic ;) Thanks for your support bro. .-= Latief@AnotherBlogger´s last blog ..Easy EntreCard Contest From CravingTech.Com =-.

Great post - I'm thinking that PageRank will update in the middle of next week fingers crossed - I know it's not massively important but I'm excited to see what will happen!
- Hesham says:
  
  Probably you are right, so let's see what Google is hiding for us ;)
SmashinGeeks says:

Thats a Nice News, I think Google Updates Page Rank after every 6 Months Or 3 .-= SmashinGeeks´s last blog ..How To Play PlayStation 2 Games on Your Windows =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  Every 3 months ... 4 times a year .. Good luck ;) Nice cool design blog, I am joining you soon on the design niche, follow me back on twitter and keep in touch
Onibalusi Bamidele says:

This will really be interesting, my website is pagerank 2 and I am hoping for pagerank 5 or so. What i think matters most is trustrank and i think i am getting a little of that, i wrote about "dennis edell comment contest" and I am now on the first page even though others wrote about it and even anchored text links were pointed to Dennis Edell's website. I think the secret is to try to acquire as much backlinks as possible from edu, gov, mil and very powerful trusted sites. Thanks
- Hesham says:
  
  Cool, and thanks for the tip buddy ;)
lawmacs says:

Google Page Rank we all looking forward for it ,Google mentioned in it's Guide lines that in one year alone it tweak its page rank formula and read this page http://www.google.com/corporate/tenthings.html and in Google's own words focus on the user and everything else will follow .-= lawmacs´s last blog ..Choosing Your Platform And Web Host =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  Great tip Lawmacs, well said brother! I am not working to get a high PR, but pr will come a lone ;)
  - lawmacs says:
    
    That is it Hesham the thing i realize is that all the optimization we do as bloggers is really th enhance the users experience you keep on rolling brother you are already rocking i predict a good march for you. .-= lawmacs´s last blog ..Choosing Your Platform And Web Host =-.

      Thank you so much, I appreciate it
marcelino says:

Working on my 4th blog to go through its first PR scrutiny, this time I am presenting a blog with close to 90 days full of work. The sad part is after the first ranking, I pay little if any attention to the benchmark after that. I have only created personal blogs on popular topics for my own/a few amusement, however, I think this time regardless of the competition I am going to set a goal of a PR5 after three years. That should be a realistic goal that will take some dedicated effort? .-= marcelino @ RazorLip´s last blog ..The Cover of Democracy =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  3 years is quite enough I guess!
Tom says:

Why are you waiting for the little green bar to move? PageRank is regularly (dare I say constantly) re-calculated and only the export happens roughly once every 3 months. Not too eager to see what mine is, PageRank is almost meaningless, and as long as you work on internal and homepage links your site should do fine. A date of the next update? April 1st. Google will put everybody up to PR10 just for fun :) .-= Tom@NetAccountant´s last blog ..10 web design conventions that will make your website as good as Amazon.com =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  If this happen it will be lots of fun :) I actually don't know how to check it before the export and I will not bother if it takes too much of my time, any ideas? As I said, I care for what advertiser care for!
herman says:

My pagerank on my blog went from PR5 to PR3 in the last years, but the traffic/earnings went up, so I would be happy to drop to PR2 if the traffic is also still going up. Only advantage for a high PR is indeed linkbuilding. .-= herman´s last blog ..Online wiskunde-test =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  I can see that you have a very entertaining blog, I have enjoyed some of the videos! keep it up! Would you mind to share what kind of traffic you have?
  - herman says:
    
    The Belgian market is very small (only 6millions Flemish people), so my traffic is rather small compared to bigger international websites (but the conversion rate is higher I think). Public stats: http://www.belstat.be/viewstat.asp?UserID=dailybits .-= herman´s last blog ..Online wiskunde-test =-.
    - Hesham says:
      
      Not bad at all, thanks for the information
Vanessa R says:

I am hoping to get a page rank :P One of my blogs (about 2 years old) has a PR of N/A. and I haven't participated in any shady dealings or such, so that one puzzles me somewhat. The other is fairly new and has a rank of 0. Le sigh.
- Hesham says:
  
  mmm.. I can see that you didn't add your blog link in the comment!

    There's one blog and the other is http://horticulturemadness.blogspot.com :D .-= Vanessa R´s last blog ..My Sexy New Lil' Black....Knee Brace? =-.

I'd be extremely happy with an increase in my Google PR, but if not then staying put would be better than going down, fingers crossed ;) .-= Karen @ Blazing Minds´s last blog ..How Can You Find Good Blog Content Worth Reading? =-.

  Of course Karen, staying is better than go down :) I hope you will go up because you really.. really work so hard on your blog, I am watching!

Nile Flores says:

I am not worried... after a long hiatus during 2008, it hurt my site. In 2009, I went from a PR1- PR4. I have been a PR5 and so that is my goal. Google usually updates page rank once a month during the first week... at least that is what I have noticed. You can check your Google Webmaster Tools to see how your site's range may effect how your next page rank will be. .-= Nile Flores´s last blog ..Graphic Tutorial: How to Make A Vexel Guitar =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  I didn't know that, and I actually can not find my way inside Google Webmaster Tools to know how my next pr update will be! mmm.. is it by comparing results?
Kevin says:

well, i never use to check my google PR but i was surprise to see my PR 3 few days back. now i am working hard to get good Google PR and now loading speed as well matters :D .-= Kevin @Free Vector Graphics´s last blog ..Rolled Canvas Giveaway from Uprinting =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  This is great, probably you are getting more popular because your awesome design blog, so people like to link to your posts! By the way, I am working on my new design blog and social bookmark site, basically it's kind of designfloat and designbump but this time I am going to promote all submitted content in a nice way! So keep in touch till we talk again, I feel so good when I meet a design blogger :)
Lakhyajyoti says:

I am so exciting about next PR update.Because it is first time for my blog.
- Hesham says:
  
  OK! cool then, I with you good luck! Have you got any backlinks for your blog? would you mind to share some tips?
JamesP says:

I think I will still be at PR0, but I don't worry too much about page rank. MY blogs get good traffic, my readers are happy, and I dont give control of my site to Google. I don't need them. Most of my traffic comes from social sites, and other places I hang out. If Google wants to rank my site and give me more, then cool,but think about this... if the "Great and mighty Google" disapeared would you be out of busines? most people would be because that is all they care about. Search rankings are great, but if you focus on other sources of traffic, you wont care about PR which incidentally means NOTHING anyway...I have PR0 sites outranking Pr7 sites on MULTIPLE search terms... .-= JamesP´s last blog ..Guest Posting Contests Rule the Day =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  James, I think it's all about you, your plans, the reason why you are blogging, where you want to see your blog in the future...etc! I talked before about Technorati and it's authority , I have talked also about Alexa and it's rank! so for me Google is on of those parameters that plays well to spot the spot light on your biz! Would you tell me what kind of traffic your blog is getting from social sites?
Brian D. Hawkins says:

I failed to plan for the next update so I invite everyone to link to my blog. If everyone cooperates, I should be looking at a PR5 by month's end. Thanks in advance. lol Seriously though, I have done nothing to build pagerank. I'd like to say it's unimportant but I do want to see PR5 again. .-= Brian D. Hawkins´s last blog ..Do Banner Advertisements Work On Blogs? =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  PR 5 ... if not today then tomorrow ;)
Josiah says:

The next PR update is much needed for my sites. I have several sites that are sitting at PR0 that will definitely be PR3. I mainly use PR as a way to gauge a site for link exchanges. With a higher pagerank i'll be able to get deals with higher "authoritative" sites. .-= Josiah@Tumblr Themes´s last blog ..Flourish =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  I understand Josiah, it's not a good feeling when you have a new PR0 blog ;) I have a new social bookmark site, I hope to get some rank because with a higher rank it will get more attention as it's a way to set backlinks! I also recently started 2 sites and of course it will remain PR0 even after this coming update, it's so so new! I wish you all the luck!
Keith says:

I don't sell much advertising so PR doesn't mean much to me (unless mine goes up, then it will!). Really it depends on your niche though, I have a site that is a PR1 and I sold $20k worth of products in the last 10days on that site, because I rank for specific "buy" terms with it though. Also, advertisers I have dealt with on other sites I own are more concerned with traffic and views than PR. I don't think it is as important as Google wants us to think it is, but it still has value.... .-= Keith @BlogTips´s last blog ..Are You Being A Cry Baby? =-.
- Hesham says:
  
  WOW! this is cool Keith, Congratulations for the good deal.. now I see you became more busy than ever ;) And yeah it depends mostly on niche and the products you are selling (in case you have a product, I don't have one!!!) so... I am into selling ads at the mean time! Probably I will take another step toward design blogging niche, it's that kind of high traffic, and for me I think I can do more with it! I already setup my design blog, I will share it when it's ready!
Kiesha says:

I'm definitely looking forward to the update, I'm hoping for the best :) I'm sure this blog will do exceptionally well - you never know that PR 5 might be on its way! .-= Kiesha @ WeBlogBetter´s last blog ..What will the death of Youtube mean for bloggers? =-.
