Seeing Red : Joining the Google Pagerank Zero Club!

posted by FH2o

Blue eye Garoupa and PageRanking is a fishy business

I had a rude shock when I logged into PayPerPost just now to check in on the opportunities available only to be greeted by a red screen instead of the usual white screen that I’d been accustomed to!

For those who are not doing PayPerPost – a white and light beige/yellow means that the opportunity is available to you while a blue and red screen means that the opportunity is not available. Here's the legend explaining this.

For most bloggers like myself (before I started doing paid posts) Google Page Rank warrants nothing more than a big yawn. However to those who are trying to monetize their blog; it means making some money (or a lot of money if your blog has a PR of 5 and above) or nothing at all!

What does it mean to me from a PR 4 then 3 and now Zero? Well, with no opportunities from PayPerPost, there’ll be no more opportunities to do paid post(s). Duh! As a ‘non-pro blogger’ who has a day and weekend job and does not have to depend on blogging for a living – the roof has not caved in and it’ll be back to normal blogging as usual!

What surprised and disappointed me was the fact that PayPerPost and IZEA with their much touted pagerank is nothing but hot air and that Google Page Rank still call the shots with the advertisers. Now let's get back to life! ;)

Don't write about TigaP on your blog. Let the badge go as well. Big G is targetting TigaP so discretion is the word.

It's not worth to hilang ranking sebelum untung duit TigaP.

Hey Bro, it irony that 3P should choose today to approve my blog. I thought we can start competing with each other. :-) Well, life go on. Cheers

anonymous - Thanks for the suggestion. Will do that since paid ops from TigaP're now gone! Cheers.

justintsan - Haha. The irony of life! We'll see how we can 'compete' in other areas. Interesting journey isn't it? ;)
