I’m pleasantly surprised that my effort (and stubborn-ness) in building this blog has paid off so well.

I was supposed to sleep early last night, but I didn’t – I came back online and did the post on Social Rank. It was 1.50am.

Its almost 11:00am on the same day now, and when I did a Google search on “Social Rank”, this blog actually came up in the first page!

But its still the main page of the blog, not the permalink page… yet!

Well, so if you’d ask me, is SEO really hard? I’d say no. Its just takes a lot of discipline, and the attitude of perfectionism. Remember, in SEO you are a human trying to please a robot, and in the robot’s perspective, a 1 is a 1, and a 0 is a 0. There is no half!
