After some PageRank analysis, I wrote a tool which estimates the page rank of a site. It is based on the back links it has on various search engines, the size of the site and the number of internal links. In 90% of the cases it yields the correct PR +/- 1 PR point. It does not check the quality of the links, so if you have a few but very good links or you're Google banned, the estimate would be notably wrong. Because the results have limited accuracy, they have more meaning if compared over a long time base (say, after a month). Have fun! (yeah, never take PR too seriously) Page Rank estimate tool More on the analysis
nice tool shoing PR increase in all my sites exept the latest one and one on which there r no much hits.
These are the number of site pages, and inbound links (excluding internal links) to the domain according to In http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/
Gr8 tool bugon. We also want to know that what is Siteexplorer pages, Siteexplorer inlinks & Siteexplorer total links.
Looks good, but hopefully its not true I've got a PR2 and it predicts a PR3 Another tool says i have a current PR2 and a predicted PR5 Good though man
Nice tool! Would you be able to take the PR of the links into account? maybe in the future? I think then it would totally rock
In principle it is possible, but hard. To do it properly for sites with many incoming links would require heavy resources (like google's...). e.g., could you, with a click of a button, go over all of cnn's incoming links to calculate cnn.com's page rank? Clearly not... Anyway, it could be possible for low ranking sites with few inbound links (for which this tool is actually less accurate), so it could be a good idea. I'll have to think about it.
Actually there might be another problem. I currently use no Google data whatsoever, neither directly nor indirectly, so I am not doing anything against their guidelines. If I'll automatically check the actual PR of the linking pages, I might be doing something which isn't kosher, at least according to their guidelines.
Good points bugon, you certainly wouldn't want to upset google, and the resources thing is a bugger.. with those in mind making it use PR would probably be more trouble then its worth. Anyway, it's still a great tool, keep up the good work
After the next PR update, I'll be able to recalibrate the fitting "formula". I'll have more data points and less systematic errors (currently the PRs were determined several months ago while the backlinks are fresh...)
Cool toy; thanks for sharing. That would be just my luck - alivedirectory.com - 7.967 - to miss 8 by that much. blazemp.com made 8 by your tool at least.
seems good... bt hw mch reliable??? i think i should wait till the next pr update before commenting the worth and value... will surely give it a try.
A site of mine shows 66,000 links in yahoo (using link:http://www.site.com) and you are showing 4450? Also does it take the number of pages in the site into account? It seems to. This has the potential to be the best PR prediction tool available.
