PageRank 7 for SheepTech

I have notice this for quite sometime already since I have the SearchStatus extension installed on my Firefox. I was shocked when it reads the PageRank bar as 7/10 on SheepTech’s main page few months ago during the PageRank update. It must be a glitch or something, I told myself.

It doesn’t sounds right for a new and rarely updated blog to have such a high PageRank, but heck, it happened. While I know it wouldn’t even last, it’s still nice to tell that this blog was once a PageRank 7 holder.

Perhaps it’s the second Malaysian blog that have achieve PageRank 7, with the first one, Zeo, which have his PageRank downgraded to 6. Let’s see how low will SheepTech’s PageRank be after the next update.

P/s: Perhaps Google like the way the sheep lies down on the banner, hah..

Update: Okay, you should have a rough idea how important is a webpage of PageRank 7 to Google by looking at the screenshot below. What is a PageRank 7 when it doesn’t even rank first for its own keyword—but other posts sit the first two slot instead.

YouTube went up to #2, while Google dropped from #3 to #4.

It is quite shocking to have a video sharing website rank higher than two giant search engines. Anyway, Alexa tends to be always inaccurate for their ranking system, and people don’t really care much about it anymore.

It seems that Google is trying something new again. Instead of black URL like what I have set in my AdSense account, the URL appeared underlined and is using the title color instead of what I have specified.

Anyone see similar phenomenon?
