I has been read a Jackbook last post about PageRank. He said that “forget about all those tips, tips, tricks whatever to increase your pagerank”. Hmm…i think PageRank is very fenomenal. I didn’t know about PageRank when i start bought my first domain Wiellyam.com. I don’t have any tricks to increase my pagerank. One week after i start my domain with wordpress inside, without any serious purpose i checking my domain pagerank.

I got my domain pagerank is 2?  what?  where it’s rankcome from? I’m very shocked, so i checking my domain rank at some pagerank checker such as pagerankchecker.com, popuri.us, … and the result is same. So, i checking my domain link at Google, and i just has 3 links when i check 3 month ago. 2 links is inside link come from my blog, 1 link come from my registrar.

I got 2 pagerank only in 1 week. My friend said it’s a lucky. Hmm… i think so.
But, my other domain got 2 pagerank only in 1 week with the same registrar. No backlink.
You can say i get my pagerank because i have a good backlink from my registrar!!
I don’t know!

Comment please!

Maximize Your Direct Ads Income - Part I

There are 6 steps on my mind how to promote your blog and get more campaigns from the advertiser. All steps I got from my experience and with the sample from the popular blog.

1. Blog/Website
I wouldn’t talking about blog or website now. But, it’s the first requirement to make money online. I believe that you all has a blog now.

2. Contents
Contents or blog post is the second part that you should have. Contents is the reason why people visiting your blog, contents is the place your blog will be index with search engine. Yeah, contents is the body of your blog.
So, what should I do with my blog post? I make 4matters how to increase your contents of your blog.

- Writing Skill
Writing skill is the best reason why your readers want to visiting your blog and read your blog post. But, I’m not a good writer? Ok, I know you’re not a good writer. Because I’m not a good writer too. Well, whatever that you want to write of course you like it. For example, maybe you like about dog pet and whatever that you write about dog pet you’re not feel forced. Be the best on everything that you write.

- Unique
Unique post is a necessity. Don’t copy post or article from the other site on your blog. Is better if you rewrite it with your own opinion. Or you make a link about the article recommendation from your blog. Trust me.

- Niche
Whatever your blog category, try to make a niche blog. Don’t make a blog with general category or mix category. Of course also appropriate with your skill. Don’t be a follower.

- Give free service
These another way to make contents. You can make a free download theme, whatever it, wordpress theme, blogger/blogspot theme, or website themplatesfrom your own design. You can also take a theme from thousand theme in internet. But is better if you can design yourself. Not only theme, you can make free service download like free avatar download, free mp3, free video, free picture upload. Of course it’s not break with copyright. Be creative.

For next part, i want to share about blog design/layout, and traffic. Don’t forget to subscribe my RSS, okay. Enjoy!
