Does anybody know how to check PR directly from Google Datacenters instead of having to use a PR Check tool or the toolbar? Also, how can you determine if a PR is faked? Thanks, Mark
You can't determine if the pagerank is fake or not, after all every tool that check or try to verify pagerank is checking the url pr value and if it's indexed by google... so it's not accurate. and if you are looking for the source code or script to check the page rank simply search DP fourm there is a few and they are free and written in PHP, You need to go to the Google API it might help you more than this section.
You have to depend on the tools, there are some nice tools which will serve the purpose. Otherwise its not possible to access their datacanters directly. You can ask Matt Cutt for more.
I would look for where their backlinks from, are they permanent backlinks, are they quality backlinks, ...
alright thanks a lot..i was wondering more how those tools are able to access the datacentres to display PR but I found a couple script examples on the internet and am trying to make sense of them now thanks alot for the help.
