*faints*..

Google doesn’t really like my blog. In fact, a couple of years back I was sandboxed. And then they dropped my Pagerank from 2 to 0 despite having 15,000 backlinks. I have one site which does have less than 5000 backlinks yet they’re PR3. I’m not selling links nor doing blackhat SEO (like I used to) but still Google seems to hate it..

Not anymore I guess. After like 0.75 years of focusing on ranking no.1 for my name, I finally did it.. You can call me shallow but i don’t care.. heheheh.. Look:

See that? heheh, 2 sites on page 1 of Google.

Well Im ecstatic mainly because its hard to outrank Facebook and Twitter for your name. Why not do a Gurgle search on your name and see that your facebook or twitter ranks no.1. Second is that in my melvinblog.com, there’s no keywords at all stating “Melvin Dichoso”. There’s Melvin but no surname. and add the fact Google doesn’t like my blog.. Now my personal blog was created for that reason actually. But then its just a personal blog so there’s not much bearing for me..

There’s not that much to say but for a search marketer like me it means a lot. Now my next quest is to rank no. for the term “melvin” which is my name..
