I started my image hosting site in late march and just a few days ago I reached a page rank of 1. I'm very happy
. It took lots of hard working adding my site to many many directory sites and some social networking sites too. I've also in the past month increased my traffic 4x. Everything is going well except for some hosting problems i've had the past 4 days with my provider. I was actually offline for 13 hours yesterday. They restarted my vps so Hopefully it has fixed the problem..
I'd just like to thank everyone at v7n for helping me with my website from the start. There's a lot of great information here.
