Ranjith

Arti, sorry dear, I shared the reason on other thread, due to power cut, I get very less time to come online these days. that's why,

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Congrats Mohini.Smile Yes, slow and steady wins the race but can the race ever end, PR of 10!!!

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Power cut in winter! IB team should be made to govern India so that we do not face any such problems. Tongue out

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Number 1 and Number 2 have replied in an orderly manner. One after the other. Well done DS and Mohini Smile

abhin@v

Dont worry Ranjith, its bound to increase. I got my non-zero pr after many months. I am sure you wont have to wait much. :)

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Oh I feel like crying seeing the way you are consoling me.

I had a PR of 2 earlier but now as I shifted to a custom domain, the PR got reset to zero. I hope that PR gets transferred.

Arti
from Mumbai |

If you cry it wont..

DS
from Mumbai |

So thats the reason! Just like Animesh, its bound to take some time...

abhin@v
from mumbai |

PLus 1 DS!

Ranjith

Yes, it might take another few months.

(The complex mind of an upcoming engineer)

abhin@v
from mumbai |

@ranjith, didnt understand :(

Arti
from Mumbai |

Lol@ DS
@ Ranjith,
I think he meant your complex equations:)

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Now I did not understand what Arti meant.... Confusions are increasing nowdays on the forum. It all started with the congratulatory thraed for Arti and then the thread related to reviews posted by Hemal and now it is time for this discussion to get into the clutches of confusion

Arti
from Mumbai |

@Ranjith I anticipated your reply to abhi as "What you did not understand Innocent" So provided an answer beforehand Tongue out

Dhiraj Shenoy
from Bangalore |

Constant @ 2 , i have started hating consistency .

abhin@v
from mumbai |

Yup, its really good. Nothing to worry about. I think traffic is more important than Pagerank and they dont always go hand- in hand. 

Arti
from Mumbai |

Maintaining consistency is tough.. 2 is real good, congrats dhiraj

DS
from Mumbai |

Wow! Consistent in GPR and INDIRANK! Thats great actually...

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Then why not go to 1? Tongue out

Anyway, congrats

abhin@v
from mumbai |

@ranjith Tongue out

Subhorup Dasgupta
from Hyderabad |

My rank is 2/10 now! 

abhin@v
from mumbai |

congrats Subhorup, thats great.Smile

 when did you start blogging?

Arti
from Mumbai |

Congrats, subhorup :-)

DS
from Mumbai |

Congos Subhorup:)

Subhorup Dasgupta
from Hyderabad |

Thanks, Abhi, Arti, and DS. I hear about Prs of 5 and 6 for blogs, so I was not clear whether a 2 is good or not. I have been blogging for six years, but more in the form of keeping a personal journal with only myself and my family as readers. It is only since the last six months that I have started blogging more regularly and keeping a broader more general readership in mind.

abhin@v
from mumbai |

Wow! 6 years is quite a time. It requires some serious dedication to blog for that much amount of time. amazing! :)

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Congrats Subhorup. Smile

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

A PR of 2 is good enough. PR 5 and 6 is difficult to achieve. Moving to higher PR is difficult because it is on a log scale. If 100 links can bring you to PR1, 1000 are required to move to PR 2 and so on.. though not exactly as I described. Spending more time is the best way but it is possible only for professional bloggers.

DS
from Mumbai |

Blogging for 6 years, thats phenomenal really!! Did not even know what blogging is at that time...

Mani
from chennai |

Hi frnds...my blog PageRank got PR 4 ,and other blog get PR 2 ..

http://facebook.com/mani4astro

abhin@v
from mumbai |

Just checked Indiblogger's PR. Its 4 :) 

Arti
from Mumbai |

Hmm.. Decreased by 1.. Any reason that you can see for the dip?

abhin@v
from mumbai |

Has it decreased? I thought it was 4 earlier as well..

abhin@v
from mumbai |

maybe because renie is not being regular with the updates ? LOL Tongue out

Arti
from Mumbai |

Oh, I thought it was 5.. Not sure now.. May be you are right..

Arti
from Mumbai |

Lol, its much better than what it was a few months back actually.. :P

abhin@v
from mumbai |

any tool to check the page rank history of a site?

Arti
from Mumbai |

You are asking me? I am the last person who knows of all these things.. :P Ranjith might be having an idea..

DS
from Mumbai |

Only 4!! I thought it must have 6 or 7...
With so much traffic how come only 4, its confusing.

abhin@v
from mumbai |

No, that would be too high. indiatimes and rediff have a pagerank of 7. I dont think indi gets that much traffic, besides it also depends on incoming links from sites with higher pr.

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Reason for the dip: Renie hasn't asked any sponsorer to send us free i pads in the way Dove has sent free hair care product samples Smile

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

@ DS Page Rank is not at all related to traffic. It only depends on the quantity and quality of incoming links. The other way around can be true: A page having a high PR might get more traffic because it is likely to perform better in searh engines.

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

@ Arti Good Joke! I answer other people queries by googling. Smile Let me try the same now.

DS
from Mumbai |

@ abhi and Ranjith
Thanks for that additional Gyaan:)

Arti
from Mumbai |

@Ranjith that is also a great skill, if you ask me Smile

abhin@v
from mumbai |

thanks for that link ranjith!

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

@ Arti Thank you Smile

Rupam Das
from Gulbarga |

Been Blogging Since 2nd Oct, 2011, Got PR3. I was expecting a PR5, but links have got diluted across 3 other website's of our which are interlinked. All other  sites of ours have moved to PR1. As Google is Down from PR10 to PR9, another update is expected shortly. Increased my link building activity 20 times, Hope to crack that PR5!

Congrats to all others who have improved their ranking and those would could not, give it a shot, you will get there!

DS
from Mumbai |

Hope you crack that soon.

abhin@v
from mumbai |

That is a good rank withink a short period of time. Any particular sites you would recommend fot link building? When do you think the next update will be?

thanks in advance :)

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Congrats Rupam. Hope the links get concentrated soon. Smile

deepika
from patna |

gr8 PR @Rupam

Rupam Das
from Gulbarga |

Actually PR is bit outdated in terms of a measure of the targeted traffic we get. Moz rank gives you a better understanding. But PR helps in getting Readers Attention.

Checking the Rank against the targeted keyword is better. But I guess It makes sense to first be loved by Gig G, then we can always get that love from Mr. Moz and Ms. Alexa!

Thanks DS and Deepika for your comments!

Ram A Singh
from Silvassa |

Kristy Kumari
from Amritsar |

I just hit PR 3! I was at 2 last week. I noticed though that right before this change my backlinks suddenly went up from 2 to 51. I had plenty of backlinks (much more than 2) but Google took forever to update it. What's really odd though is that with this increase my alexa score is dropping considerably (about from under 8lakh to now over 11lakh). I don't understand that.

DS
from Mumbai |

Gpr 3 is great...
Alexa works in funny ways, dont worry about it.

abhin@v
from mumbai |

Thats great, Kristy. Congratz Cool

Kristy Kumari
from Amritsar |

Yeah I'm not too concerned with Alexa but I do watch it. I don't fully understand all this promotional tracking yet, I just know which numbers are good and I want those kind of numbers lol. I was surprised to hit 3 so quickly since I mostly have a 'my life drama' kind of blog. It's a lot of fun to write though hahaha.

DS
from Mumbai |

All the best Kristy. Google surprises you sometimes:)

josechukkiri
from Thrissur(Pudukad) |

Hi abhi, congrats. My blogs also got an increase. But my josechukkiri-news.blogspot.com having PR2 decreased to '0' when I customised it to josechukkiri-news.com. Now I have to build up the page rank again from where it started.

DS
from Mumbai |

Thats happens when you shift to 2 custom domain. It will take sometime before again gaining the ranks:)

abhin@v
from mumbai |

Agree with DS. Dont worry about pagerank because a custom domain is much better from SEO point of view than a free domain. Thank you . :)
