One fine Day,

I made a Blog,

I did not want to make it on say,

A free host like Blogger or Wordpress…

So with the help of a friend,

I decided to buy a domain,

And some webspace to go with that.

Now I had a blog,

And I promoted it,

Mainly by commenting on other blogs,

Spamming Orkut, telling my friends, etcetera etcetera

After a few days,

When I felt my blog had some content

I asked a webmaster to link me up…

On his blogroll that is…

He asked me my page rank,

I was not sure about mine.

So I checked,

I checked mine and I checked the other webmaster’s…

I said, “Dude! I got a better PR than you…mine is 1 and yours is 6…”

I was chatting with him so he gave me an emoticon (smiley)…

The “Rolling on the floor laughing” emoticon,

I knew I had done something stupid.

I then understood the real meaning of PR,

It’s about backlinks to your site,

And the higher your PR,

The better your site

According to Google’s wonderful search engine… :mad:

I still hate the concept,

But I guess I have to live with it…

Sadly, The prime need for SEOing your site…

Is improving your pagerank… :evil:

My PR is still 1…

And I don’t know of a concrete plan of how to improve it…

If you can help by putting me in your blogroll,

Please do… :grin:
