How to keep your mind off of the PageRank Update

by Lynn Little

Every other day it seems I read a forum post about someone seeing PageRank movement on their blogs and sound the alarm that the PageRank has begun. Apparently the update can take weeks, so even if it has begun, a final tally might take a while. While we wait for the next Google PageRank, there are some things that we can do to keep our mind off of our web page’s PR.

Write an article about PageRank. Write your thoughts about PageRank and what it means to you. Some people don’t think PR is all that important while others believe it is everything when it comes to SEO. Share your opinion with your readers. Those others who are obsess with PR with enjoy reading it if nothing else.

Check out a new Social Network. Are you on Facebook, My Space, or how about a more niche social network like Gamervision? There are plenty of social networks to join and check out. Some are focused on a particular subject while others are more about meeting people. Grow your network today by choosing one and sign up. Explore their website and add a few friends. Social networks really can keep you busy. Not to mention that you will probably at least have one opportunity to list your websites address, which is always good to drive traffic.

Take up a new hobby. Expanding your interests will give you something to delve all your extra time into. So take up knitting, scrapbooking, or collecting. It will get you away from the computer and hopefully your mind off of SEO related topics like PR.

Do something on your SEO to do list. Did you hear about a service or an SEO tip that you’ve been wanting to try? Why put it off? implement it now instead of checking your PR every few hours.

Keeping your mind off of the PageRank update will not only give you peace of mind but possibly a new hobby or better PageRank the next update.
