I came across a great looking blog while looking for resource sites in the health niche. Its called Featherish Healthy Living Blog. Featherish.com is actually a health forum, which I’m participating in to get the word out there about my own health niche website, Alternative Health Nut.
I like the clean feel, the absence of adsense ads, and having recent posts at the top of the right column. This encourages return visitors in my mind, because its easy to catch up on the entries you missed.

Most people know that the google update is coming in the next few weeks. We are patiently waiting for our site’s page rank to increase, and some of us are rushing to get some sites made. Which is why what I found yesterday on Blogger so interesting. It seems that blogs hosted on Googles blog platform, Blogger, are having the page rank updated continually. If this is true, well then, I might have to start making some feeder blogs with a blogspot.com attached to the domain name.
The other day i was on my friend’s blog, The Bangkok Gentlejerk Hideaway, as we are writing an ebook on Thailand Travel together, hoping to tap
this niche. I lived there for two years and frequently go there.
Well I know that he just started his blog a month ago which means his page rank should be a 0, not a 2. The last google update was over two months ago and has yet to come, so this is very interesting.
It got this page rank in between google updates. I have a theory that Google is trying to make their platform more attractive and woo some bloggers from wordpress by allowing only their blogs to have continually updating page rank.
If it is possible and true, its a great tactic on google’s part.
