    Hey,
    Im just wondering, how does the iwebtool pagerank predictor work? Ive checked a few of my sites and ive been predicted to PR5s, which although sounds wonderful I find a bit too high...
    I tried checking on their site but I couldnt find how it actually works...

    Do they count backlinks...or do they check googles data centres?

    Thanks,
    pete

    i don't know how accurate iwebtool pagerank predictor is because my site was predicted PR 6 and then it went down to PR 4 the next day...then back to PR 6 the day after

    I'm still at a PR5. But I don't know how it works. It seems to check multiple stations of some sort. When you select Check as in the form 5(Check) I got this

    Rank_1:1:3 Rank_1:1:3 Rank_1:1:3 Rank_1:1:4 Rank_1:1:4 Rank_1:1:5 Rank_1:1:3 Rank_1:1:3 Rank_1:1:4 Rank_1:1:2 Rank_1:1:3 Rank_1:1:5 Rank_1:1:4 Rank_1:1:3 Rank_1:1:4

    Don't know what to make of that.

    I believe those tools and predictions no more.

    My Blog pagerank predicted was 4.

    After the update it stood on PR1.

    God save me!

    Such tools are only for entertainment purposes. Don't trust them.

    Worse for me. I'm still PR0 after the update. God, I have more than 10,000 backlinks!

    I guess this tool is pretty accurate. It predicted my site to be PR 4.4 and I got PR4 after the update. Cool!

    yup it is accurate.. atleast it is 98% accurate for me because it gives me a hint that i am getting PR4 for a site.. and in last update i got it... then it tells me i am getting PR3 for another site.. and i got it in this update (2days ago) but it is not telling me another site which i started a month ago and got PR 1 in this update..

    Generally a prediction tool can work like :
    Find all backlinks, take the link PR and nofollow tags into account, find how many other links are on the page, get the correct % of how much is passed over to you, make a prediction.
    That can take a loooong time to predict so iwebtool probably does : get # of backlinks and predict - there was an article somewhere that said : you need x backlinks to get pr x. Prediction tools can not be trusted especially with G's latest changes :)
