My Google page rank has increased from 0 to 1! It may not be a great figure compared to those who have page rank 10 but at least I have seen some improvement on my personal blog. ;) As you can very well see, my blog is already 27 months old yet I only have page rank 1. From October 2007, you might observe that I only had some serious number of posts starting October 2009. To give you an honest answer, I was not serious about blogging that time because its significance was yet unknown to me and it took me two years to realize it. I don't even know what page rank and search engine rankings mean and how it affects a blog, not until I've seen a friend's blog and discovered how she earns from it. As a newbie in this vast virtual world called blogosphere, I crave for things unknown to me. To fill my hunger for knowledge, I read articles about blogging, search engine optimization, and how to increase page rank and earning money online; and applied those I think would help improv

We are celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary today. Ten years had passed since we exchanged "I dos". Ten years of sharing love, affection, happiness, pain, dreams, frustrations and struggles to keep our marriage untarnished, vibrant and scintillating. Like most marriages, we also had our shares of misfortunes and misunderstandings that challenged our relationship. Through these challenges, we learn the value of patience and sacrifice. I would say it was not easy. Keeping the dynamism of our marriage required so much hard work from both of us. However, it was worth the effort otherwise we would not be celebrating another wedding anniversary and every year we always go back to the basics to keep our marriage fresh. In keeping our marriage fresh, it is important to understand why we entered into it in the first place. Why did we have that all-consuming, ecstatic, heart-stirring experience when we get married? What did we want out of the relationship? What did we want to gi

Personally, much of my time is spent online. I love to try new things the net offers. On one of my searches, I stumbled upon a torrent search engine. I checked the site and tried its service. Torrents are an excellent way to get the latest music, movies or games downloads. This search engine is the right one for you to download them free. There are so many competing websites for torrent search engine but this search engine looks very promising and powerful than many other search engines dedicated for torrents.
