Well. I am glad to see you back after a 10 days break. During these 10 days, I got some great response for this blog and that shows in our Page Rank too.

Yes! BlogrPro got a PR 3 from PR 0 which is one of the good news to share with you. But I am really surprised as my twitter profile got a PR 4. Alexa rank of this blog too goes well and there are some more achievements which I will share with you when appropriate time comes.

I am going to announce the contest winner in this week and I wish all the participants for a good luck. Meanwhile, I really have disappointed you all by not releasing the BlogrPro sLight theme. I promise you now that I will release it within 7 days after some more optimizations are done in the theme.

I would like to hear some interesting things like

That’s for you only. Yes, the new BlogrPro theme has finally arrived. We already have mentioned that we will start releasing our sLight WordPress theme to you all and it will be released within 5 days. I recently had a chat with my blogger friends and they just told that BlogrPro is looking very fast and very simple. I am very much disappointed with the fact that the theme is very simple. Yes, I love designing sites with much elegance and icons.

Hence, I took 2 days time to launch the new theme perfectly on Diwali celebrations. But as I told you earlier, I will never compromise with the loading speed of this blog.
