Except that Google doesn't like paid posts and paid links, so they can randomly take away any PageRank a blogger may have earned - which then means none of the advertisers who were willing to pay for posts and links are at all interested in paying for new ones. In fact, they're all asking to have those same links removed ASAP because Google has also penalized their sites. Except, of course there's no payment for removing said links, except in rare cases. Somehow I just have to find the time to remove multiple links, all of them really important.
Anyway, the reason I was thinking of this is that I just renewed this domain. I was thinking about just dropping it because I don't use it as often as I thought I might, but then I ran this PageRank Checker and found out this page as a PageRank of 2. Considering I rarely update this blog and don't really do anything with it, that's quite surprising. On the other hand, my recipe blog bcmom's kitchen has a PageRank of 0. Zero. I may not update it as often as I should, but I really do use that blog, and I know there are other blogs linking to it. And I've never done paid posts there. So what's up with that? Yeah, makes no sense to me.
So, I renewed this domain - whether I really need it or not. At least one of my blogs has a PageRank of some kind, even though it really doesn't seem to matter unless I'm going to sell posts or links - which would then make Google take away any Rank I might have. Just Because. Yep, I definitely understand this PageRank thing. How about you?
