About this SEO Challenge

When New Blogger and their Ajax enabled templates made it onto the scene I appreciated the fact I could label posts and have them show up in the sidebar. A small thing for some people I know but having a blog on blogger and after 30 posts or so... the rest of your posts not on the main page seem to be reserved only for those people who may happen to Google upon the correct term, click and have your article from last year show up. This might get Technical - Warning for the non Technical So when labels were introduced I was stoked. I upgraded my template to New Blogger widget-enabled templates and I was happy. Until. I checked out the source and saw that the code was a LOT. The text to code ratio was over 16%! Bullocks! So in an experiment I got another blogspot address and reproduced the widget template as a standard template. I made it look the same. In fact, truth be told, I was happier with this template as the weird widget code wasn't bugging me. The text to code ratio had improved to over 30%. Text to Code ratio is one measure of ranking web pages So I was bummed. I looked at my PageRank of 3 on my original Blogger website and wondered that, without disrupting the widget enabled code if I had a chance at all of ever breaking PageRank 3. I had become convinced that the widget-code would be the downfall of me. But not wanting to clean my Blogger site and scrape it of all past content I decided to start this website. This challenge. I decided to start it without Widget enabled code to see if it's possible to get any Blogger blog past a PageRank of 3 starting fresh. Here are the qualities I will be looking at. How long to move it up to a PageRank of 4 at least. What will I have to do to get it to that PageRank. Qualify the things I do to attempt to get it up. Record it here.

I know there are enough SEO websites out there. I know I am already at a disadvantage with www dot SEO dot coms but...I am a sucker for an almost lost cause. So let's see. Wish me SEO!
