Newbies in Page Ranking, Ex-Links, Referral Link, Blog Traffic

-
I started to learn about serious blogging, getting more into blogging and also earning money with blogs. Recently, there are a lot of rumors getting around my company here that makes me feel I cannot 100% depend on my job to feed my stomach.

So, I started with the ideas to get blogging into a partime money making. Therefore, I learn about adsense, advertlets, nuffnangs. Recently, I started to learn and know the term "Page ranking", Ex-links, referral ink, blog traffic, etc... I realize, when I do more blog hoping, my adsense increase more than expected. If I don't, the adsense is lower or I can say none at all.

Page Rank
I come across this website, where we can check our PR( Page Rank, not public relation!). Suprisingly, my dull blog has the page rank of 3 out of 10!! Then, when I checked on the page rank for the super well known famous blogger KennySia.com, he too, have the page rank of 3! Of course, our KuchingBloggers.com has a higher PR.

Ex-Links
Normally, serious bloggers would visit other blogger site and leave their suggest to exchange links. In short, this is called ex-links. Like what I have here, there are list of ex-links. Not all the bloggers in my list is someone I know in person. Ex-links can help in PR and indirectly increase blog traffic. My first impression is "ERRMMM, this must be a joke. How can my dull blog gets to have the same PR as the famous KennySia. Then I find out page rank and blog traffic is two different thing. One might have a super duper high blog traffic but not page rank. WOW! I'm so proud of my own dull blog. Some of you might ask why. Well, PR is calculated based on total number of your blog links in google. It turn out that I have left my blog link in many other bloggers' blog. This is the reason I have the PR of 3. Hhmmm...

Blog Traffic
Well, to have a high PR doesn't mean I'll have high blog traffic. To leave my blog link in other blogs is easy. But to maintain the readers to come back is another thing. That is what blog traffic is. When there are many return visitor and reader recommending their friends/relatives/etc to go to your blog, that definitely will increase your blog traffic. High PR doesn't mean high blog traffic!

Link Referral
I find a very useful tools in increasing my PR and blog traffic. This is link referral. You can check on it by click the link on the right corner of my blog. Hey! I'm newbies ok! So if there is some correction in what I say, do let me know. I'm learning and is still learning. If anyone has any other useful tips, do leave me some comment here ....

Thanks!!

DD,
I used to have a PR3 rank but after I write paid post, they give me a zero!

Sorry but I don't mean to pour you cold water. PR3 is very easy to achieve. But when it comes to PR4, it's soooo difficult!

'Ma Li Chai'/'Mani Chai', also known as Cangkuk Manis

While googling for news about 'malichai', it turns out that I hardly get anything that I am looking for, so this triggers me to write something about this local vegetables that I believe, can only be found in Sarawak. 'Mali chai' is easily planted and grow quite fast as well. In fact, this is the only vegetables that I planted and it didn't fail on me! With its stick, just plant it on the ground and leave the rain and sun to takes care of the rest. Hahaha... 'Mali chai' is a word in hokkien that mostly use in Kuching. 'Chai' means vegetables. Hakka people called it 'su choi'. Well, this vege doesn't seems to have an English name. If we are to translate from BM to English, it definitely sounds weird - Sweet Hook. I think anyone who hear 'sweet hook' will not be keen to try it out.. So, how do 'mali chai' looks like? I've snap the photos of this vegetables at my garden. Actually, I've just harvest the vegetables few ...

Cozy Cafe, Jalan Song

Feeling hungry for something different on lunch time? Another place you can think of will be this restaurant - The Cozy Cafe. It is opposite One TJ with a black signboard. The environment is indeed cozy and warmth. Taste wise not bad but I can say that the service is a little weird. We order tea and they only permitted to give us 2 cup. Hhmmmm, I thought that we can just ask them to refill the pot wit hot water and share the tea amongst us. Guess this is how they earn more - limiting the number of sharing per tea pot. Oh well, got to just follow their rules. And this is what we ordered - sharing portion between a few of us. After all, ladies are small eaters. Mushroom soup with garlic bread Fish and chips Spaghetti Carbonara with hot dogs  Enjoy your lunch yea...

Have anyone been to this place? I actually asked SK to help in translating them into English. According to her 'xiao' refers to small while 'ba wang' is gangster. Hhmmmm.... It is located right opposite the Stutong Market. BF say this is second branch. For me, this is the first time I saw it. This is a good place for 'pao' lovers to have their breakfast. BF and I went there once for breakfast since it's on the way to our workplace. First impression - I like it here. Not much traffics and the place is clean. Second impression - what happen to the day dreaming waitresses?? I want to take my order! Third impression - do they know that we are waiting? The food is nice. For BF, it is superb. He has been eating 'pao' for breakfast for almost everyday. Well maybe like what he say, for me everything is the same. But I must say the dim sum is nice. Anyway, I think they should really improve the workers efficiency. The other day, BF forgotten whether he had ...
