My sites and subdomains are predicted to have PR at some time according to iwebtools. I know there is a PR update going on now [jul '08] however I do not see any changes. Why are the predictions indicating higher pr yet I am not seeting changes? Q...
The iwebtool prediction tool (like so many other PR predictors) is generally inaccurate. It should be used "for entertainment purposes only".
All web sites will have PR at some time. But other than that Jim put it perfectly... iwebtool prediction should be used for entertainment and nothing more. Google doesnt announce when a PR update takes place, it just happens. Just keep working on your site and building good content to attract back links and forget about PR, it will happen when it happens.
rusty brick's tool used to work some what accurately, but since long time is not showing current PR also.
My advice is, don't ever trust any of these PR prediction tools. Most of them are not accurate and it's just a crude way of predicting data based on some criteria and algo developed by their own. Remember, this is not the one used by google and the fact is that nobody actually knows how google determine their PR in the first place.
I've never found the PR prediction tools to predict much less than PR 5 or 6 for my new sites. The tools are interesting toys and not much more.
Never trust the PR prediction tools - they're not accurate and they can never be accurate as it's only G who knows the real algo for awarding the PR.
predict is just like a fortune teller. you never knew it will be true or not. so dont expect too much from it.
lol - Sometime Iwebtool Predict PR6 or 7 for your PR0 site .. and this makes you happy for the moment , if you want to make yourself happy with these virtual things then go for predication else there is nothing interesting in it ! - It's just a false Prediction tool ! Regards, MB
Don't go for predictions, try to make more relevant BLs from quality sites. It only helps in getting good PageRank for your site.
Don't know why people ask prediction must be accurate???!! Would your dreams always become true??? .....
