So don’t miss these races and have fun .

THE PAGE RANK OF BLOGGERS WRITING SPONSORED POSTS FOR ADVERTISERS VIA PAYPERPOST HAVE BEEN DROPPED TO ZERO. THOUSANDS OF BLOGGERS HAVE BEEN HIT BY THIS DEMOTION IN PAGE RANK AND MANY OF THESE ARE OPTING THEIR WAY OUT OF PAYPERPOST .

PAGE RANK IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTORS ALONG WITH TRAFFIC WHICH ENCOURAGES A ADVERTISER TO PUBLICIZE THEIR PRODUCTS THROUGH BLOGGERS . HIGHER PAGE RANK SITES MORE OFTEN THAN NOT FIND THEMSELVES AT THE TOP OF SEARCH ENGINE RATINGS AND ATTRACT MORE TRAFFIC . THIS GIVES ADVERTISERS PRODUCT GREATER EXPOSURE .

THIS MOVE HOWEVER IS NOW BEING SEEN AS A MOVE BY GOOGLE TO PROMOTE ITS ADSENSE AND ADWORDS CAMPAIGN .

PAYPERPOST IS RUN BY IZEA . TED MURPHY ITS FOUNDER AND CEO HAVE COME UP WITH THE IDEA OF REAL RANK TO PREVENT THEIR BLOGGERS FROM GIVING UP . MURPHY EVEN CLAIMS THAT MORE THAN HALF OF THEIR ADVERTISERS HAVE STARTED TO USE REAL RANK KIT TO DECIDE WHICH BLOG TO CHOOSE FOR THEIR CAMPAIGN.

THOUGH IT SEEMS THAT LIKE PPP BLOGGERS ARE COUNTERACTING BY NOT GOING DOWN TO GOOGLE DISCRIMINATION IT REMAINS A MYSTERY WHETHER LOSS OF PAGE RANK WILL OR WONT EFFECT THE TRAFFIC OF BLOGGERS AND THUS THEIR INCOME EARNING CAPABILITIES .

After digging to a depth of 100 metres last year,

Russian scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 1000 years, and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network one thousand years ago.

So, not to be outdone, in the weeks that followed,

American scientists dug 200 metres and headlines in the US papers read:
“US scientists have found traces of 2000 year old optical fibres, and have concluded that their ancestors already had advanced high-tech digital telephone 1000 years earlier than the Russians.”

One week later, the Indian newspapers reported the following:
“After digging as deep as 500 metres, Indian scientists have found absolutely nothing. They have concluded that 5000 years ago, their ancestors were already using wireless technology

THROUGHOUT THE YEAR 2007 IT WAS STAR PLUS WHICH WAS LEADING TV RATINGS WITH SHOWS LIKE KYUNKI SAAS BHI KABHI BAHU THI ,BUT IT SEEMS THAT IT WILL BE ZEE TELEVISION WHICH IS GOING TO MAKE MERRY THIS CHRISTMAS .

WITH ITS SERIAL BANOO MAIN TERI DULHAAN AT THE TOP OF RATINGS AND SAATH PHERE AT THE VERY NEXT STEP, ZEE IS ALL SET TO REMOVE STAR PLUS FROM THE TOP STEP OF THE PODIUM .

THE POPULARITY OF THE SHOW BANOO MAIN TERI DULHAAN WAS EVIDENT AT VARIOUS TV AWARDS WHERE IT BAGGGED MANY AWARDS .

ZEE HAS BEEN THROUGH TOUGH TIMES FOR MANY YEARS , MAY BE ITS TIME TO ENJOY SOME GOOD TIMES AS WELL.

THIS SUCCESS SHOULD BE SOMETHING THAT WOULD PLEASE SUBHASH CHANDRA AFTER NOT SO SUCCESSFULL LAUNCH OF INDIAN CRICKET LEAGUE .

BEST OF LUCK ZEE .
