Finally, Googlebot find this blog

As an idiot on website optimization I try several ways in order to be indexed by googlebot. I changed the template of my blog frequently resulting none. Today I just realize that the googlebot last visit icon already changed…thanks god…It’s not n/a anymore.
One of the most problematic and confusing issues most webmasters have with Google concerns linking. How your links are ranked? How you should link out? How you should construct your internal links? How you should get more inbound links? How many links should you have on a page? And the líst of questions goes on.
Perhaps, the most annoying aspect for the struggling webmaster, has been Google’s secrecy in how it actually ranks links and pages. Google’s whole PageRank and Ranking Algorithm is so complex that no one can fully boast they understand how the whole system works.
Google’s ranking secrecy and complexity has probably been well-planned mainly because there are millíons of webmasters who would like to "game" the Google Algorithm and achieve high keyword rankings through manipulation with so-called "black-hat" SEO techniques and reverse engineering. Wouldn’t it be ironic if this whole secrecy and complexity is more of a smokescreen rather than an actual deception on Google’s part.
What if the keys to the kingdom are actually yours for the taking? What if the solution is hiding in plain sight for everyone to see? What if the secret to high rankings in Google is not a secret at all? Wouldn’t that be a hoot!
Actually, that’s not a far-fetched assumption to make, mainly because many of Google’s linking policies and recommendations are freely given by Google. Whether you can believe Google is actually giving you the goods is another issue that we’ll put on the back-burner for another day; but for now, Google’s advice on link building is rather generous and informative.
As a part of Links Week held recently, Google’s Maile Ohye gave some pointers on what Google is looking for and how it does its index ranking. No big surprise that content and inbound links are the two most important factors. This is what most SEO experts have been saying for years. A site’s content is one of the main factors. Therefore, you should have a compelling site with interesting information and/or provide quality products, entertainment, opinions. A
Anyway, I’m very pleased of my blog pagerank: 0 (null)..

I agree a hundred percent with your opinions. Its difficult to get higher pagerank especially when we occupy a lot of ads. We only can do our best to get closer to google algorithma.
