Its just after 11 on Tuesday the 29th of April 2008 and I have just noticed on my google toolbar that our new site has achieved a PageRank of 3.

PageRank is a numeric value that represents how important a page is on the web and goes right up to 10.

While a rank of 3 might seem low, to put it in context, the Eircom.net homepage currently has a rank of 6.The site went live in early Jan and I have been working on the web marketing efforts since late Jan. While I haven’t been able to spent as much time as I would have liked on marketing the site, I been posting pretty regularly on the blog and sending out the odd mail requesting a link exchange. So all in all, a PageRank of 3 is probably a fair return for the amount of work and time invested. An added bonus been that we haven’t as of yet spent a penny on on-line marketing other than a few quid on adwords.

The old site (different domain) has a PageRank of 4 so my aim is to beat that by the end of the year. Anyway, I just thought Id post on our blog to mark the moment for posterity even though blogging late at night is not something I aim to make a habit off going forward.
