Does Yahoo have Yahoo-rank or a kind of pagerank?

    Web Rank it is called, nothing like PageRank of course but you can read about it here: Web Rank is a feature on the Yahoo! Toolbar that displays a website's relative ranking and popularity.

    The Yahoo algo places more emphasis on links that would be naturally useful to users in context. If you want to know how read this Yahoo Patent: Systems and methods for search processing using superunits particularly references to the 'concept server' and then read this interview with Yahoo's Priyank Garg.

    Just to add that PageRank reffers to Mr Page , one of google creators , not the "web page"

    So if Yahoo will make something , they will call it YahooRank ^^

    I tried the download, but as I suspected, Webrank is gone, unless I am missing something here.

    They really need to update their webpage! I'm guessing that is like three years old now!

    Has anyone noticed that Site Explorer isn't counting all the links?

    Yesterday my link count dropped in 1/2: from 8,190 to 4,335

    No change to my SERP.....

    As for as I have seen, Yahoo gives much more importance to domain name and meta tags. It is quite good at picking your backlinks up as well and they can possibly have a hidden metric that works like Google PR. But in real terms, there is nothing as such Yahoo PR

    Yahoo WebRank was only available for a short while and is no longer calculated. DP had a tool for it....

    Google has a patent on its PR system, so no

    Yahoo doesn't provide such things. Its has his own algorithm for search engine to give result.

    Siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com tried somehow to be the equivalent of Google Webmaster Tool and let me tell you Google is one step further than Yahoo, always it seems.

    Upto my knowledge there is no page rank for yahoo back links. PR has been provided by google only.

    No Yahoo does not have any page rank or such. Anyway page rank is actually patented by Google

    I am using SEO spyglass and it has a rank tracker application where you can check ranks for many keywords for a particular site. The results are quite accurate and you can check them in browsers.
