So today a work I check my page rank with a couple of page rank checker’s that are all over the Internet. Both of my blogs showed up as ZERO’s…yes, ZERO’s. I am less than impressed. I didn’t consult with my GOOGLE toolbar this morning so I am not sure when this all happened, but I know last night I had 2’s.
There are a lot of different theories going around. Someone at PPP/IZEA claims to have the inside scoop coming directly from a source at Google. One of those theories is that Google is targeting bloggers who get paid to post. If that is so, then PLEASE DO NOT MENTION WHO YOU WORK FOR!! Not at all, mine changed after I slammed a particular company 2 days in a row. There is a lot of controversy over that theory, who knows though.
As far as I am concerned, I can type, talk, write or bitch about what ever I want and to punish me for that , well screw them. I didn’t start my blog to make money, it just happened and if my rank being a 0 because GOOGLE doesn’t like that I do it, hey screw them. The same goes for these companies I get paid to blog with, if I was worthy a week ago, then I still am. Nothing has changed on my blog, the only thing that has changed are the powers at GOOGLE. With that said, hopefully these Pay to Blog companies will come up with their own rating system and use that. I know there are a few that do, but I am sure they still figure in your GOOGLE page rank. I will continue to dole out the same crappy, funny, serious content or what ever your opinion of it may be and I will do it for years to come.
HEY GOOGLE - YEAH YOU- THIS IS MY, YES, MY BLOG. I WILL BLOG ABOUT WHAT EVER AND WHOEVER I FEEL LIKE...WHETHER IS PAID POSTINGS, SOME OTHER CRAP OR YOUR MOMMA!!
(Have I been angry the last couple of days???..LOL)
7 Verbal..ugh..written diarrhea's:
Wow, hell had no fury like a woman scorned! For what it's worth, I'm on your side with this one.
Oh, I just had my pagerank downgraded from 4 to a big fat zero! Isn't that just peachy!!! And I have no idea why ... siggghhhh ...
Lots of buzz about this is going around. Apparently it's happening to a lot of people! It sucks! I mean, what's Google's problem? I hope they fix this, I really do.
Maybe it's like the day I came on and my TTLB rank was "Insignificant Microbe." Their system was broken and not registering my links. So, maybe Google is just broken?! I sure hope they have a good excuse.
Did you read the Izea blog? I admire Ted for advising all of us to avoid using the words payperpost, izea and ppp in our content, but I'm planning to post an "screw you google" post on each of my blogs. I believe in paid content as a great advertising tool and will contiune to do it proudly and blog about it.
As far as I am concerned, getting paid to blog is a personal choice. I am not sure if Google is trying to punish the blogger or the advertiser more.
Sorry to hear about this DS! Here's a hug for u, hopefully ul get back ur ranking soon! :):):)
Thanks Marzie!!
