Does it matter?

Tweet

I am pretty sad and a tinge of hurt because some web site administrators said that I do not have enough traffic in my site to be eligible for their membership. The other site even mentioned I was a "fake" (SUDDEN PAUSE.....I need my Zen moment on the last one....10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1). I say, what? Prior to changing my site into my own domain, I managed to garner a "page rank 3" in the span of 5 months. I think that was such a good feat! And what's with that fake thing? I remember posting my pictures in this blog and I don't recall those being another person than I, ME and MYSELF. I knew the consequences of losing my rank and starting from scratch again if I change my domain but I pushed through because this was what I wanted, a name of my own. In fairness to Blogger.com who has been very instrumental in hosting my blog up to the present, I felt it was high-time to move forward with an identity I can claim. Actually, 3 sites gave me thumbs down in their membership pool. Technically, I was already a member of the other one but just had to update my blog name and presto! I was nipped in the members list. I asked myself though, does it matter? Having a rank and all? I mentioned before in my earlier post (Blog...blog... and blog some more) that I will be doing this blogging thing for the sheer joy it gives me and so be it. Ranked or not.
