while I was meandering around the blogOsphere I came across Page Rank Checker which has a free tool to check Google™ page ranking of any web site pages easily and to display your site's PageRank™ value on your web pages....
it was here that I found that my Google page rank is 4/10..... for laketrees and 4/10 for PoeARTica

Great post, I'll have to check out some of those pages you mention. I reached a 4 too and am pleased about that.
I'm fond of Australians.
My father's best friend - my "non biological" uncle is from Australia. I lived in Sydney and Tasmania when younger as my father is an architect/engineer and we moved a lot for his career early on .
that's great news Joh :)
haha congratulations to you too !!!!!
I'm fond of Australians.
that's good to hear Cooper :D
you're Dad couldn't have picked two better locations..... except for the Central Coast ...NSW of course...;)
You are something - better than any ranking ever can show
ohhh TorAa
I'm taking that as a grand compliment ....thank you :))
enjoy your party !!! :0
Congrats, Girly. Now you're up and running with the big puppies.
I can sense your excitement. Bravo!
haha JB...THANKS!!!!!
ahhh yes it's a nice feeling :D
LOL....'big puppies'.....
so that means you would be one of the 'big cats' eh....being from the US of A...
I know ....I know...I didn't last the distance.....re...the self enforced ban.....I couldn't help it ...honest :D....I'm such a yabbermouth :D
Congratulations on making both lists Kim :)
We're not one of the biggies by a long shot but we're comfortable in the position we've maintained for a while now.
Welcome aboard and enjoy your stay. PR5 will be more difficult to attain but it's reachable. PR4 is a very nice place to be.
*Hugs*
Congratulations to you... but I always knew you should be up with the big guys (and gals!)
I never knew how to check page rank...and now I do - thanks for that too :-)
thanks Leigh :)
you have done a great job compiling the top 50 list *clappies*
ah yes JB ....;)
I think I'm in the best of company at PR4 :) and I quite like the altitude at this level Captain :D
thanks Diane...
glad to be of help :)
have a great day :)
Kim, Congratulations and well deserved results too.
It's nice to have PR but it's the blog and the person behind it that is far more important that PR which Google likes to change at the drop of a hat :)
My Life Blog is PR0, but my PC Security is PR5 and when others were complaining that they were being downgraded because of text ads etc, I managed to maintain my PR.
But, essentially, it doesn't mean that much, it is all about providing what readers want and interacting with them :)
Colin
Ah, congrats to that positions, but I'm not surprised at all, you have a wonderful blog and paintings :-)
There are a lot of very nice bloggers among you Aussies!
I'm not at all visiting Swedish blogs, since most of them seem to blog in Swedish and the few that blogs in English seem to be difficult to find... but I'm working on it!
you are so right Colin....
PR isn't the be all and end all....it is about communicating and making friends....though have to say congratulations to ya for your ranking anyway...I hear that a PR5 is not easy :D
thanks Captain :)..
haha us Aussies like to party with the best of them....
that's a shame there aren't more English speaking Swedish bloggers
good luck in your search and if I meet any I'll send them your way :D
wow Kim.. Congrats! those are some awesome results... Many of those blogs are on my favorites list as well...
but like Colin said, Im not surprised either! your blog is marvelous, its enjoyable and fun to be around....and honestly, when I am too stressed out from blogging, I head over to this blog to relax!
And more than PR, its the value and your voice, thats more dear to me and I am really happy to see you topping the list!
BIG congrats Kim!!!! So glad to see you part of these lists of highly respectable blogs.
The blogs you're in company with goes to show the great work you do. You're very much deserving of being listed as a part to them:-)
Congrats, Kim! Soon you'll be No. One! Keep up the good work!
That is awesome Kim, you deserve it. Congratulations on the fruits of your labor! I always love how I have no clue as to what will be posted here though it always goes with the theme. Keep up the great work.
All the best. Maybe your blog is one of the top 'ART' blog' in Aussie :)
Fruity
oh thanks for the compliments Pearl :)
yes it's an interesting list and I'll have to find the time to check them out....
so glad that you find my blog relaxing haha
thanks so much Deborah....yes it is good company....and I feel proud to be an Aussie...
have a great day :)
haha Lynda
I think no 1 position would be a 24 an hour job.... :)
when would I do my painting LOL ??
ah yes Boyd
half the time I haven't clue either as to what I will post about ...hehehe
thanks for your good wishes :)
you must be a mind reader Fruity ...as I was wondering the same thing myself.....
I wonder if there is a list of top art blogs ? :)
Well done Kim and thank you for the mention. This is a good list I think - it is not dominated by A List or professional bloggers but has an interesting mix of blogs and topics.
so true Sue....
maybe we can call it the 'down to earth list' :)
Well done, girl. Congratulations for your achievements, which are more important than the Google PR. I hope next year I see you at the top of the lists.
Hi Kim,
Seems Google are playing silly sods again....I broke all of their rules about linking etc and today my Life blog has gone from PR0 to PR5 and my Free PC Security blog has remained steady at PR5.
As far as I'm concerned, it is still more about the people you meet along the way and make new and wonderful friendships, read different points of view and the blogosphere isa generally happier place than the real world at times :)
You also have an award to collect: http://grottynosh.wordpress.com/2007/10/29/more-awards-2/
Have a wonderful day :)
A hearty congrats to you! Well deserved -- your art is wonderful, Kim. Sorry I haven't visited lately. I'll have to shape up and see what you've been working on lately.
thanks so much Mihaela :)
have a great day :)
