IwebTool & Directory Predictions

    Not sure if this is the right area but we always talk about PR prediction here more than any other section so I thought it was appropriate.

    Note: If not mods, please accept my apologies and move it to the correct one.

    For IwebTool Page Rank Predictions; Where the Heck does it get it's backlinks? Yahoo says I have 91,000+ but on iwebtool it always says ~14-17,000 and as a result a poorer score.

    Any ideas?

    No,
    I think their algo consider MSN backlinks to predict PR.

    they get them from yahoo, but only update it like every month. the backlink checker fetches new results all the time, but PR prediction never updates. Both of my sites including zorg links doesnt show true backlinks.

    the tool is a piece of crap always was and always will be just a name and tool built to attract attention to newbie webmasters to get some soccer balls up, ive taken note of my sites PR updates for a very long time, and not a single time it was right, either 1 or 2 PR's up or down.

    Good to hear, it's giving me a totally ridiculous prediction. Is there a better tool or is this like telling the future; impossible and a fools game?

    I actually was serious, there are very mixed opinions on this tool but that is besides the point. No this was not a joke thread.

    Hi Dubz of course I appreciate the thread is serious, and its a very good point you have raised on which I made those comments;)

    But the guys who put any value in these tools are not understanding the effect that distorted and totally in-accurate information has from these tools, bearing in mind that the QBC's use these methods totally for their insiduous scams and frauds

    I stand 100% behind my comments:)

    That's cool, it's just been giving me crappy predictions lately so I thought I'd ask where it's backlinks come from lol. In another thread today I even said banking on PR prediction is like counting chickens before they hatch.

    Now back to promoting! :cool:

    That funny tool just brings you a happy mood ;)

    No one except google could tell what's your directory's pr at next update.

    This tool sucks big time, gave me a predicted pr 4 for one of my 1 week directory which then got a pr 2 and was giving pr 4 yet again for an older directory which later in the update got a pr 5. its fulla shit and only newbies use it just to satisfy there souls!!!

    It takes backlinks from MSN i think!

    nobody can predict PR. google changes its algo every update, and iwebtool never responds to that. so its always a step behind. still, its the only tool out there so we shouldn't complain, nor get too excited.
