    I found a new tool on a website
    am not sure if it was told earlier, and please note that i am not at all promoting this tool. Its just for your knowledge, it gives the value of a link on a certain page.

    If that 'was' the real value of my site pages, I would sell tons of links. ;)

    It said one of mine was $92.29 USD. That site is not in Google currently.

    Is there any value in the site, other than prompting for a reciprocal link? I dunno.

    it gave 60.37 € for a site of mine.

    It would have been better if they told a bit about what factors they include in calculating.

    Well one thing that is obvious is the the calculation gives a great deal of weight to what it thinks are home pages or first level pages.

    Here is an interesting example. I have a part of my web site called the InfoPool. When I used the tool to get a value for http://www.compar.com/infopool it gave a value of $3.50.

    We have set up a subdomain that redirects to that page http://infopool.compar.com. When I ask for a value for that page it tells me it is $33.81.

    These are both the same page.

    I'd like to know how they evaluate pages. Still this is pretty cool. You can run a lot of competitive pages and see how at least one indices evaluates them. Dave

    Did a few websites, and must admit, they were close to the real thing on all the websites I tested. On all of them I do ask for that amount of money.... per 6 months.

    It's pretty obvious that only the people who wrote the tool know the answer to that question. Did you really expect an answer?

    Not from compar, obviously.

    It may not be likely that the programmer(s) will tell all about how the tool was created or exactly how it works but that doesn't necessarily mean they won't provide some general information on the factors it considers. That said, in this case, from a quick glance at the site I didn't see any information about any of the tools.

    Well there is some programming logic, but I get different estimates everytime I try the same URL ranging from $62- 121? Still...an interesting tool.

    I'd like to believe the values it gave me but I have doubts that i can get anyone interested in actually paying the suggested prices :eek:

    The other interesting thing about this I found was it doesn't seem to detect false PR. I know for a fact I have quite a few PR6 pages that are false PR. I tested a few of them and they pass as real PR.

    A little off topic here, but so does LV accept false PR pages and assigns vaultage accordingly. I have posted a thread at LV addressing this but it remains unresolved. Perhaps that's another thread! Sorry didn't mean to highjack this one.

    All you said in that post was that the tool seems to be weighted for home pages. That doesn't answer the question of what factors are being considered in determining a monetary value. Your reply to that question was unhelpful and unnecessary.
