Holy cow, a Google Page Rank of 6
There’s a site called urltrends.com which sends me monthly reports, in visual and textual fashion, of how my website and my blog are trending. These reports display eight-month charts of Google Page Rank, Alexa Traffic Rank, Google Link Popularity, Yahoo! Link Popularity, and more. I can even compare my sites to other sites and blogs. The latest urltrends report for this blog arrived via email last night, and almost made me fall out of my chair.
Winehiker Witiculture suddenly has a Google Page Rank of 6!!!

I won’t attempt to explain what Google Page Rank is; plenty of technosites already do a pretty reasonable job of it. Suffice to say that ”6″ is good. It is very good, and it’s telling me that I’m doing the right things. I think I’ll keep on doin’ ‘em.
Already, my traffic has gone up about 20% today, though that’s extremely short term. We’ll see what the next month brings. But Holy Cow anyway.

Congratulations! That’s definitely a thumbs up from the collective minds behind the Google Page Rank, that your site is providing content that is recognized as quality content. Might also be a nudge from them to put up more Adsense blocks. ^_-
I cheer you on from my, down in the valley, PR of 1.
Considering the PR values are non-linear, a PR of 6 is definitely quite an achievement!
So the question is… what is an appropriate wine for the occasion?

Congratulations on the PR ranking! I am brand-new so I am still stuck in zero-land, but I hope to reach 5 or 6 by the next rank. After checking out your site, it is no surprise to see such a high rank! Keep up the good work!

Steve: It may take a little while longer to attain a PR5 or PR6, but don’t let that discourage you. If you gain subscribers and improve your Alexa ranking, it’ll happen. Thanks for chiming in here!
Wing: Something bubbly!
