Google PageRank and Doing Business Online

stormbreaker

,

Google is now updating PageRank of websites across the Internet. This blog’s PR went down a single notch and most of my websites suffered the same fate. Will it affect me so much? I think not. This is one of the lessons I learned from doing business in the Internet – don’t put all the eggs in a single basket. Even if some of my websites’ income or marketability depends on PageRank, like those of my directories, I see to it that my other revenue sources will not be PR-dependent. To those who do paid blogging, even if advertisers value PageRank at some point, what is more important is that you write quality and original content. I’ve known bloggers who rake in a lot of money I paid blogging without thinking too much of their sites’ PageRank. To maintain some descent amount of income doing business in the Internet, one option is to diversify your investments. Don’t think too much of PageRank, as it doesn’t think too much of you.
