Google Doesn't Care About Our PageRank Anymore?

Just recently I have posted about my quest in achieving a PR3 in 90 days. Then I run a blogsearch about page ranks then I read an article saying that Google Quietly drops PageRank from Webmaster Tools. Google had indeed remove Page Rank statistics on Webmaster tools.

Susan Moskwa from the Webmaster Central team explained it was removed by Google because Google doesn't want webmasters to focus too much on pagerank. This is a good thing for webmasters since they worry so much about page rank. I myself become so obsessed about how will I rank high.

And since this is what Google wants, I will not continue anymore my quest on PR3 in 90 days and getting a PR10 backlink from Adobe. Was my decision right or wrong? If Google truly don't want us to worry too much on our rankings, it is much better if Google will give us all a PR of 10.

The Quest for PR3 Ranking in 90 days

Our goal is to climb up to the top of the Search Engines.Some got a very competetive niche and they have to prove to the Search Engines that their blog is more relevant than the others. Bloggers are  having hard time to promote their blog because of lack of time and lack of money. Having a thousand of quality backlinks doesn't have to be time consuming or costly. There are many ways to generate free PR backlinks. In the  next 90 days here is what you will do to achieve the goal of PR3 Ranking in 90 days starting now.

2. Write atleast three articles per week and submitting to article directories. In short, you will do article marketing. I've read that this method is very effective. Article directories also bring extra traffic to your blog.

Social networking sites like Digg, StumbleUpon, Propeller have a high Google Ranking. There are available softwares that you can use to speed up your submissions to multiple sites at one time.

PR10 Backlinks from DP and Adobe: Is It for Real?

Last June, I wrote about Free PR10 Backlink from Google. Then just now I Googled how to get a PR10 backlink aside from that method. Then I've found out this post about getting PR10 backlinks on howtorankhigh.com. I've read that there are rumors that someone can get you a PR10 backlink from Digital Point Forum. Also I've read that you can get a pr10 backlink by utilizing Adobe. Hmmm..Let us try these methods I've found on howtorankhigh.com. I'll report back if anything happens to my ranking.

…if your company has done some development using Adobe products, here are a few examples of how you can get involved and subsequently rewarded….

1. Apply for the 2008 Adobe Max awards. Their 2007 site has a PR8 and both winners and honorable mentions get a PR7 backlink. In fact you get more link love if you are an honorable mention then you do for winning, so it pays to have a good but not great submission.

2. Take part in Flex Camp!

Hang around and get interviewed for quotes and you can get a backlink from a page like this one.

3. Get involved with the Flex dev community. Submit content, and you get an “About the author” plug at the bottom of your entry – write a very long entry and they break it into multiple parts – more links for you.

4. Another option is to write some content for the Edge newsletter!

See, just because a full flash web site makes you cringe does not mean you should stay away from using Adobe products for development. I’ve seen a new site come out of absolutely nowhere to a PR7 with just a few Adobe.com back links.

In another post from bayaw.com on Aug 08, it lists down the actual steps to get there by going through the Adobe forum/ communities.


1. Go to http://www.adobe.com then click “Communities”

2. New page will show, Click the “Forum” link, on the new page click the topic you want to join, I prefer Acrobat because I regularly used the said adobe product so for sure I can relate on it.

3. Click the “register” anchor link. You need to register to the site forum to gain back link and post some thread from it.

4. Once you’re done registering and you’re in the forum area where you can modify your profile information, click the “Preferences” link then click “Personal Information”. This is the place where you can add back link to your site. There are two field where you can add your link first is in the Your homepage field and second is the Your Favorite URLs field. Used this two fields wisely because they can provide you good do follow back link.

5. Now you have a back link from a pr10 site, all you have to do is explore the forum and post some question or answer some thread to provide a way bot find your account where your back link is located.

5 Steps in Choosing Your Twitter Name

Your twitter name may attract or repel  followers so it is important that you choose the right name to success on Twitter. Follow these simple steps.

1. Your twitter name must be your message. This works well if you are promoting a product. Say for example a follower is looking for pc's. Then your name will be on his search results if you have a name with pc or something related. Your real name works well on Facebook but not much on Twitter.

2. Always check if the name you chose is available. People are buying and selling popular names now on twitter. Thousands of popular names are already taken. You can place numbers and will still show on the search results but you may not want to be accused as a copycat of that popular name. So try to be unique instead.

3. Make your name short. Often people search name with only one or two phrases. So if your name has three, I don't know if they will be interested in  following you. Also, retweeting your updates won't fit since your name occupies most of the characters on the text message. A 12 - 15 character limit is a good choice.

4. Fit your bio on your chose name.  Imagine a company with a pc on his name but selling something not even related on his subject. Catchy isn't it? ahahaha. You account will be suspended for doing so. Your bio on Twitter must be almost the explanation of you chosen name.

5. Stick to one account. If you are promoting a single product, using many accounts will be confusing for your followers. Use multiple accounts if you have several products to promote that are not related with each other.

There they are! The 5 steps in choosing your Twitter name. I need your feedback readers.
