Last month, Google has issued my 4th Google Adsense payment. Not much really, but after the 3.514 conversion rate, it’s some handy extra cash. I didn’t go to the bank as soon as my payment was issued due to several reasons:
Busy with work
Anticipate for higher currency exchange rate
Few days ago, I just went to Public Bank to recieve my payment via Western Union. Maybe after the U.S. election, economy is getting better, it’s the highest exchange rate so far since my first Google Adsense payment. Really not much, but enough to pay my car insurance for the following year which cost around RM420. (Then I will left only few ringgit from this payment. LOL)
If you have some PageRank checker embedded in your Internet browser, you should have realized that A.P.P.L.E has gained back its Google PageRank, or PR in short!!! Wohooooo~ It’s the greatest thing that happen to my blog this year! My blog had been suffering from PR penalty since the first Google PR update early this year which is around January. I lost my PR after I started doing paid post from advertisers like Smorty and Blogvertise.
Some of you still may not know what is this PageRank about. You can read it here. In simple words, it’s an art of building back links to your blog / website. It’s a ranking system or judgment from the big G about the importance of your page. When the big G dislike you, penalty will be given. The big G seems to monopolize the Internet market, so they dislike those who do paid post or involve in selling links.
Since my blog get penalized by Google and suffered a PR 0 for nearly 8 months, the previously mentioned advertisers ASSIGNED ME TASKS NO MORE. I served their ads and get paid, yet when I lost my PR, they “dumped” me (my blog). I strongly believe this blog has its quality by looking at the responses from my dear readers, yes, you. (thank you) It’s not because my blog is full of crap just that Google didn’t like those sponsored contents.
I’ve been thinking of fighting and grab back this blog’s PR. And finally on the 14th November, it got its ranking back to 3! Thanks G! Got your PR penalized? Wanna fix this prob? Continue to read how to overcome this issue. Read more…
I didn’t forget about our anniversary month. We had a pleasant breakfast and had a little chat. However, my little brother was celebrating his birthday that evening, therefore I wasn’t able to meet up with Orange again.
Life is getting busy and I feel kinda exhausted after work. This post is written on 15th November, however I change the posting date to 13th just to keep a record of my anniversary month. ^_^
This video is specially dedicated to Orange. At the very beginning part of this video, it’s me who played the guzheng. Not very well performed, though. Haven’t practice for over a year!! I spent around 30 minutes time to practice this few seconds performance…
Yes, this original song is Sakura Sakura by a Japanese group known as Rin’. I did mention them before.
This is the technology era. I can’t live without PC and Internet. I’ll get totally frustrated if I have slow computer or Internet connection, even worse when there’s none! Wonder how other tech geeks out there feel when they have problems accessing their beloved computers…
And back to topic, this is the coolest tomb ever!!! For geeks. teehee~
Okay, hope this picture cheer you up for a Witty Wednesday
It’s been another year since Zoro’s last birthday. 11th November is Roronoa Zoro’s birthday. If you don’t know who is Zoro, he is a powerful swordman without sense of direction, from the famous anime / manga One Piece.
I’m not good in drawing, I ‘d love to draw something about Zoro but I have no idea how to start. Let me post up a cute comic which is one of my favorite DeviantArts.
