I was wondering what methods you guys follow when checking for the genuineness of PR of a domain. Is there any tool or something else ? Thanks
Why do you think that people are still focused on PR today? Serious webmasters don't care about PR anymore, they just do their own thing and laugh at newbies who believe that backlinks from high PR sites will help getting their sites indexed faster or ranked higher.
Thanks Bob that was helpful. Hosting24 - I am buying some websites, so wanted to make sure I am not being fooled. BTW, I agree with you, PR is the last thing I would worry about for my sites. Thanks
Well, if you buy sites, you can always do some extra work (even if site has no real PR) to gain higher PR (in case you need it)
Don't worry about checking the REAL PR via toolbar as it's impossible, and he posted a message just because he wanted to post ANYTHING
Hello Sir, First thing Page rank checking via toolbar is not impossible do have any knowledge about Google Toolbar??? You must watch this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWT3x6hYvk0 And second thing i post only if i have any perfect knowledge about it. i dont post anything Thanks
this is probably the best tool on the web for checking fake page rank, digpagerank.com Key for digpagerank: Red= fake Orange= unsure Green=true Also you can check by googling site:example-site.com and if the site your searching for doesn't appear it's being redirected to the first site in the result. ROOFIS
You can also use sites like www.checkpagerank.net www.checkpagerank.us etc (I suggest you to test those sites with a known Pr domain before originally using them.But the sites are down most of the time..)
You can use a service like http://fakepagerankchecker.appspot.com/ to check bulk page ranks and whether they are valid or no
check though google toolbar some time it is also show different page rank then you just need to go into back link of that site and back again on same page then google will show you exact PR, according to me this is the best way compare to other tools.
