So I was swinging around the blogging world and I have recently found out that the Copyblogger got his PR increased just by talking to Google. But fortunately for him that they made a critical error that he was accused of selling links when he wasn’t but, unfortunately for us Google doesn’t make mistakes too often, this isn’t a hack for any sorts, but i thought it would provide for a good anecdote. Here it is.

b5: “Umm… Google?”

Google: “Yes?”

b5: “Is this PageRank thing supposed to penalize bloggers who are in blog networks?”

Google: “No, this is a warning to those who sell links.”

b5: “Umm… well, Copyblogger has never sold links.”

Google: “Really?”

b5: “Really.”

Google: “Whoops. Well, we have a problem.”

b5: “What’s that?”

Google: “We’re fresh out of PR 6 designations for this update.”

b5: “What? Are you kidding?”

Google: “How does a nice PR 7 sound?”

b5: “Let me ask Brian.” (pretends to call me)

b5: “Ok, he says that’s fine.”

Google: “Great. Sorry again.”

Note: The part about Google being out of PR 6 designations is a joke, as is the part about having to “give” me a 7. The 7 is the Page Rank the blog would have had anyway but for the “warning” that wasn’t applicable to me. Just to be clear.

Don’t ask me what b5 is supposed to mean, I have no clue
