A new PageRank estimate tool

Discussion in 'Products & Tools' started by bugon, Jul 3, 2006.

    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)

    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.

    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.
