I experience the horrors of Google PageRank 0 and miss the point of my stress course…
Background: I’ve been launching and promoting a Web 2.0 Devon business directory.
I threw myself in at the deep end with this: it was my first completed Joomla / Web 2.0 site and had a budget of practically zero (I practised things on it for work!). It was also my first experience of doing my own sales and marketing, and worst of all, being local, it was all aimed at people around me… a kind of motivational experience which could best be descirbed as ‘bracing’. Those people on the Apprentice may look like idiots at times, but I have some sympathy!
I kept a diary at the time, and this is a kind of blog with hindsight, after all, there were so many ‘learning experiences’ involved…
This post covers the period when its Google PageRank went from ‘unranked’ to (drumroll…) zero. Yikes.
