How To Solutions PageRank Update and 2009

Posted on the January 1st, 2009 under How To Solutions by admin

Just yesterday on New Years Eve 2008 Google did their quarterly PageRank (PR) update. How To Solutions jumped from PR3 to PR4 - back to where it was shortly before this site went live. Not only that but some of the individual pages got their own PageRank.

SQL Week by Week - Now PR2

How To Audit Your Computer - Now PR2

Changing the default font in Office 2007 - Now PR2

How to add a HTML signature to Outlook 2007 - Now PR2

Javascript Wildcard with jQuery - Now PR2

How to add my blog to Google Blog Search - Now PR2

It seems that Google has ranked these pages as they are some of the older and better established pages on the site. Not only that but these pages perform the best through organic search (users typing a search term directly into Google and coming to the site). Considering I have very very few inbound links then the increased PR should greatly help the strength of the site. The How To Install Trac on Windows guide still gets the most daily traffic but this is purely from links and not Google searches.

In 2009 How To Solutions hope to provide more technology solutions. These will probably be based around more javascript, PHP/ASP, SQL, and Wordpress/SEO matters. One of these days I’ll actually put up a form on the contact page.
