This was kind of a busy week (as you can tell since I’m a day late on my normal schedule). I was on a business trip through OH when I stumbled upon something VERY interesting! More on that to follow in Monday’s post …. I think you’ll enjoy!
Blog News:
In Blog news, I was finally bestowed a Google PageRank of 2! Although I’m not 100% sure how I obtained this, but I’m pretty sure that it had to do with a lot of commenting and link-backing. At the same time, my SEOmoz MozRANK increased to 2.55. My Alexa ranking has also finally fallen below 100,000. Hopefully I can continue this trend and improve my ranks in the next go-around three months from now.

Congrats on the blog PR upgrade, and the Alexa ranking. That’s pretty awesome stuff!
Thanks! I still feel like I have a long ways to go on the PR. How did you do with the PR update?
Congrats on the progress of your blog rankings. I’m glad your car didn’t stall out. It looks like all of the houses are up higher than the road, but did it affect your house at all?
Welcome to the site! Fortunately, no! No basement flooding or anything like that. BUT a lot of people in the area did have those issues. Trash this morning is going to be really busy!
I hope the flooding didn’t affect you too much! I know that kind of stuff can be a big hassle to deal with. The PR and alexa rank is some positive news though. Nice job!
Congratulations back to you on the PR of 4!!! That was QUITE a leap for such a new blog.
Congrats on the PR2 I finally got one too. It’s kind of exciting. I live in OH, we had torrential rain also. But my driveway wasn’t quite as bad as yours.
Nice job on getting some PR! On the rain, I’m in MI, so we probably got hit with the same storm front! BTW – I’ve got a story about my recent trip through Ohio that I’m publishing this morning. You should check it out.
