Life of an Online Business – My Pillow place

PayPal Shops

Since I added Paypal to www.my-pillow-place.com last week, we’ve actually got a few sales from that already.  It doesn’t tell me, however, if people would have bought with a credit card anyway.  But I’m glad to see that the method is already working.

One of the benefits I’ve found in joining Paypal, is the ability to submit my site for free to Paypal shops.  In addition to being put in their home & garden directory, I’m exposing my site to thousands of people who use paypal and shop this venue.  Its like a little shopping mall online.  The best part is getting my site listed on a page that has a Page Rank of 7.  A one way PR 7 link is an amazing thing.  I can’t think of another place where you can get a high value link like that….I’m anxiously awaiting for the 3-5 day waiting period while Paypal reviews my site and then places in on this page…I’ll be pinging that page as soon as I see me site listed.  I’ll be posting a link in this blog to that page so Google knows asap that  I have a link on a page of that magnitude.

This could be a game changer with my pursuit of some of the keywords I’ve been targeting and deep linking to.  It would take hundreds of page rank 1 links to equal one page rank 7 link.  So you can see the value there.
