My name is Jenn, and I'm a 27 year old married and babied chick. In addition to a husband, a seven year old daughter, and a five year old autistic son, I also have four cats, three hermit crabs, two frogs, a few fish, and one snorty little Pug. I work from home doing a variety of writing and even some web design. I love blogging, digital photography and web design.
I hate Google. I hate Google Page Rank. I hate advertisers that really think that a site’s worth should be based solely on page rank. NEWSFLASH PEOPLE. There is more than page rank to accurately determine a site’s worth. Let’s take a look at jenn.nu, for example. While the domain name is barely a year old, my archives date back to 2001. Some of my readers have been loyally following me from domain to domain since 2001, 2002 and 2003. I receive, on average, 1000 unique visitors per day. Yet because jenn.nu has a pagerank of 0, jenn.nu is considered worthless in the eyes of most advertisers.
I resent that. I really do.
As many of you realize, I use my blogs to earn money. In addition to my normal, everyday (well, almost everyday) blogging, I do sponsored writing. Apparently, Google frowns upon this… in certain cases, and with certain sites. Within the last few days Google has bitch slapped most of us who do sponsored posts, and reduced our page ranks from 2, 3, 4, even 5, 6 and 7, to zero. A big, fat, whopping ZERO.
Google’s method of calculating page rank is looking at the value of sites linking to one another. In other words, Google uses rather middle schoolish ways to determine whether a site makes it or not. If you’re friends with X, Y and Z, congratulations, you’re in! But if you hang with D, E, and F, then you’re a loser, here’s your page rank of 0, maybe 1, you are the weakest link, goodbye!
Thankfully, one of the companies I do paid blogging for, PayPerPost, is working on remedying the current method of assessing a website. Google Page Rank as a factor is being dropped, and new factors will come into play. Thank goodness!
Good thing. I hate the whole PR thing. It’s ridiculous.
Yeah it sucks what Google has done. Hopefully this isn’t a permanent issue because this really sucks. I dropped from 4 to 1. Yay.
OK so. I found a link where I can post my opinion about Go-gle. I’m going to lay it down like it is. Go-gle is pure evil. They are worst than you think. Although they have some great products, the bottom line is, they suck the money and life out of this world. Time to fight back. Make Go-gle Pay. Let create a form and say, I don’t support Go-gle, then email it to 20 of your friends and family. As this list grows, we can put it on a website. But let’s not use their name, let’s use Goofle! 20 emails to the 1000th power will grow exponentially. I posted adwords and they change the dam price? Then they throw all this other bs in there to trick you into using more bullsh-t and loosing even more money! I would have better luck from a casino with this crap. Then they build this search engine and put a business listing on top of that allowing people(your competitors)to rate your business with lies! What the hell happen to the search engine. Now the business listing are forcing all the webmasters hard work off the home page(because of all the map listings)and they are turning it all to a listing of alphabets? Futhermore, they don’t live by their trademark policies. If you have a trademark and it’s discriptive( a phrase) they decide on whether to allow a violator to use your business name to make a profit even though you have a ligitimate trademark. This is bull-sh-t. Then they have the nerve to ride around and take a picture of your house and post it on their site without your permission regardless of what the camera caught on tape. Let’s get a site and call it GoofleisGreedy.com or something!
