My Weight is Messed up . . I think?

    I have two sites in the Co-op. Site one shows as having 3820 pages in URL, while site two shows 7580 pages in URL. They both have a PR3 on the home page, and they both run co-op ads site wide. Site two is bound to site one and the weight is consolidated. Site two shows a weight of around 12,000, but site one shows a weight of anywhere between 0 and 23. It been like this for the past week now.

    I would have thought site one should have a weight of about half of site 2, since it has roughly half the pages in URL. Am I totally missing something, or are things kinda whacked here?

    Without URLs we can't help you. Also see the FAQ in my sig, in particular the weight issues check list.

    Read the FAQ and you will notice your site: results show mostly titles only. I doubt the API returns much at all so I see nothing wrong with your weight.

    I assuming that the significance of showing titles only means that page has duplicate content? Sorry . . . still learning a lot of this stuff. The keyword tracker (I assuming this uses the Google API) shows my site as having 3,820 Pages In URL (see attached image). So, your saying that for a PR3 and 3,820 pages in URL (all showing co-op ads) a weight of 20 something is right?

    I think the keyword tracker only updates number of pages via the API when there is a backlink update. If you delete it and add it back in it gives you an accurate count.

    If there is an easier way to do it (or a similar service to the now defunct gmetrics let me know)

    Woah! That sure made a difference. Thanks yfs1. When I deleted the URL from keyword tracker, and added it back in, my Pages in URL dropped from 3,820 down to 10. Yikes ! No wonder my weight seems so wimpy. It certainly answers my question here, althought I'm not to happy about seeing that number drop.
