    I still exist and thoughts about my blog and PageRank

    By maurizio | November 26, 2007

    Hi.
    I know it’s been ages from my last post. I am/was busy because I’ve finally found a (new) job! And I have to move. :/
    Anyway..
    I wanted to post my “how-to create charts” post but it’s still uncomplete. I think I’ll post it in 2 parts.

    Please note my PageRank. Now it’s down to 0. Why? Probably because I wrote to them (using the tool inside Google Webmaster Tool) stating that I did something wrong and pointing at my post about Andy Coate’s viralink post I did ages ago. I even corrected it. Of course that wasn’t the problem for them, but it was for me.I read Google TOS and they say I shouldn’t post something that is confusing for my readers, and that post is full of useless link so that was the only mistake I did, IMHO. They probably decreased my PR because I wrote some PayPerPost review, but I still believe they are not confusing my readers. If a reader doesn’t trust my reviews he can just skip them. If he trust me he can still check by himself. I haven’t found anywhere that they don’t want paid links; maybe I should check again.
    If you can show me where they clearly write that I can’t have “FOLLOW” links on sponsored posts, I’ll “NOFOLLOW” all of them. No problem for me, but FOLLOW or NOFOLLOW are not confusing my readers; they are probably confusing just google.

    Anyway I don’t really mind now. I’m upset but whatever.. I’ll probably stop writing PPP post because there aren’t interesting stuff to post about anymore (I haven’t checked lately though).Maybe I can’t even post now that I’m down to 0. Whatever..

    The upsetting thing of the week (actually of the last weeks) is ShoppingAds that sent me an email stating that my account was blocked. I don’t remember why because I can’t find that email. Maybe is because I haven’t received an email but they just wrote it on my account page. Anyway I still don’t see anything appearing on my right sponsor space, which is very disappointing, because I was hoping to have at least a couple of referral subscriber since I published it very early.

    I’m starting to consider throwing away all that ads stuff on my blog, but then I will lose the experience of managing this kind of stuff on a blog.

    On a side note, I’ve noted that I have at least 15-16 reader daily, even if it’s almost a month that I’m not posting anything. This is in some way good and in some other bad. It’s good because I have some kind of traffic even if I don’t post. It’s bad because I usually have 20-25 readers, which means that I’m making efforts to post stuff and just 10 people are coming here to read my new posts.

      Yeah, Google dropped a whole bunch of PayPerPost blog’s PR to zero.

      Hopefully they’ll correct that soon…

      Welcome back.

      Maybe, but i’m sceptic. Your voice is pretty, but the competition is quite hards as i see.

      cheers,
