Google Page Rank Update
If you have been following my Affiliate Niche Stores blog, I apologize for the lack of posts for the past 6 weeks or so. I have had a lot of things going on tha tI won’t get into, but hopefully will be able to settle down and get back to building niche stores and keeping you updated.
In case you haven’t read it somewhere else already, Google has been updating page rank this weekend. Be sure to check yours to see what changes have been made. Hopefully, they will all be good. I’ve had some including this site lose rank completely, some go down and others receive ranking for the first time. If you have sites that have completely lost rank, you might want to check Google to see if you have been deindexed.
To check, go to the Google search bar and type in site:yourdomain.com, then search. If nothing turns up, Google has deindexed your site. Also check site:http://www.yourdomain.com.
I’m following some great instructions on adding Popshops to your Bans/Wordpress site. As soon as I have a chance to actually install and set up a Popshops store, I’ll post more.

Why Add a Blog to BANS
In the last couple of posts I have been talking about integrating our BANS stores with a Wordpress blog. Some of you may be wondering why this is so exciting and important. There are really two reasons for this and both are related to being able to rank better in the search engines, particularly Google.
First, and the the most evident reason is it allows BANS users to build websites that are not cookie cutter copies of every other BANS store out there. By having the ability to add variety to our stores by using a Wordpress template, most of which are free, will change the footprint of the BANS store making it unique.
Secondly, using a blog with your BANS website allows you to easily add unique content in the form of your blog posts. I subscribe to an Online Marketing Blog, and this morning there is an article on the importance of providing information to your visitors that they will want to link to rather than submitting your site to link directories and social networking sites.
You can read the article using the link above, then start adding unique articles to your BANS stores whether you decide to use a blog with your BANS sites or not.
