Day: January 5, 2009

Wow, today we celebrate our birthday! We are one year old, and we celebrate it with a bang. Though there are several pages with more visitors than us, we are happy and satisfied with the fact that we have come this far in one year, and we are very curious what things will look like in one year!

Since we celebrate our one year anniversary we want to give away free guided tours in Budapest. You heard right… free guided tours! There are no set fees, no hidden fees! The only thing we do is that we recommend everyone who uses this great opportunity to give their private guide a great tip, if they are satisfied!

Since 2009 started we have started to write some small articles about upcoming events and concerts in major cities not to far from Budapest. So far we are featuring cities such as Vienna, Bratislava, Prague and Munich. And since we started with this, we have realized that quite a lot of hot-shots skip Budapest on their tours. For example Tina Turner will have two concerts in Vienna and four in Munich in February, but she will not even cross the border to enter into Hungary. Metallica will also perform in Vienna and Munich, but not in Budapest. The same is the fact when it comes to Il Divo.

So far the thing these artists have in common is that they do not visit Bratislava or Prague either. But arists such as Simply Red and Eagles visit Prague as well, but not Budapest, neither Bratislava.

Well, maybe Budapest is not yet such a world city… some more years to wait before everyone comes to Hungary as well, but things are improving so we look with great expectations into the future!

I guess this has nothing to do with Budapest, but on the last day of 2008 it was a Page Rank update. That means that the values of the Google Toolbar has changed. For our page nothing changed, which means we are still standing at Page Rank 4, which we are quite satisfied with, though it would be cool to get a little big higher somehow. Considering the fact that we have our birthday tomorrow (hungarybudapestguide.com is then 1 year old) I am though quite happy about having page rank 4.

At this page rank update not to much happened within our pages, except from the fact that our restaurant page and the page with the history of Hungary suddenly jumped from 0 page rank to 3.

Tomorrow we will celebrate our birthday, so come back for some great offers!
