I have a few things to discuss with our members today. As most our members probably know Google once again has updated their page rank system. As o result I have noticed some great changes here on blog engage that affects all our users. A few months back I wrote an article on how we managed to stop all 100% of the spam here in our blogging community.
Anyone that’s been a member can easily remember how bad our spam issues were. Well as a result Google has once again given our upcoming page a Google Page Rank of 2. This is really good news guys. This means Google is once again following and passing decent page rank juice to links that are staying on the upcoming pages for a while.
Guest blogging has never been more attractive! Along with the great new for our upcoming page our social blog also got a lift. We are now sitting at a Page Rank of 3 and this might help to get more guest bloggers. If interested please check out this article, Guest Blog at Blog Engage.
On another note our Blog Directory, Blog Serp has also gained a Page Rank of 3. This is great news for any blog that has been listed for over the pas year or so. This is another project I started to help other blogging friend promote their blogs and gain quality backlinks.
My personal blog has gotten a page rank of 3 as well. Seriously it’s about time I have some great content on that blog I was starting to get offended I was stuck at a Page Rank 2 for the longest time. If you haven’t seen my blog make sure to check it out I talk about SEO, marketing and Promotion.
About a year ago I started a forum project. it didn’t go anywhere really but goods news Google decided for some strange reason it needed a Page Rank of 2. You can see it here The Forum Geek. If you like forums feel free to sign up and introduce yourself. We are a do follow community.
I think I got a big surprise when I seen Google gave one of my website a Page Rank 2. This website is actually designed for spammers to submit spam content. I create in hopes it woudl dieter them away from blogengage but it don’t work. it’s names Up Spam and is a spam submissions website.
Finally I also got a Page Rank of 2 on all the inner pages for my Gas Where website. This website has all the latest news about gas and the latest diggs about gas as well. The website is actually all about gas , gas news and gas prices. You can see more at Gas Where.
Well that’s about it for page rank updates. Don’t be shy to let us know what your results in a comment below.

I woke up this morning and I just knew it was time for another community spotlight. I posted on twitter asking for suggestions but didn’t get any back so here I am deciding myself. So once again I get the honor of picking a community member here at blog engage and socially spotlighting them on our blog.
Over the past two years I’ve gotten to meet so many bloggers and created unrealistic amounts of friendships. Tho I don’t know these people to see them I do however interact with the majority of them on a daily basis. I get to see their happy moments, sad moments and even in between moments.
It’s amazing how the style of ones writing changes when they are in a different state off being or mood. I myself tend to have these moments as well proving it’s only a human to be an emotional blogger.
Today’s spotlight is of a newer member here in our community but really has pushed into the spotlight “literally” voting, engaging and overall being a great member. I would like to welcome into this weeks community spotlight a Mr, Brandon Cox.
When Brandon first joined blog engage I was extremely interested in what he was doing only because he was doing so much regaridng blogging and online/offline activities. He manages and runs multiple blogs while maintaining a home of love and support. With a soon to be family of two Brandon must find it overwhelming at times to move forward. Not only does Brandon have a full time gig online with his blogging career he also supports his family and is the lead Pastor at Bethel Baptist Church in Bentonville, Arkansas.
Some how when Brandon finds time he dedicates himself to graphic arts and design. He owns and operates Egrace Creative. If you’re interested in getting to know Brandon in more detail simply check out his profile bio found here, Brandon Cox Profile Bio. Everything you need to know about him and perhaps even more.
