Spent a few hours working on a script to display Google PR, Alexa Rank & backlink info that was able to be sorted. So here it is.. http://www.scribbytech.net/rank.html
Thats a good script, there is a few of these out there and Im sure there is a few scripts leeched around the net for them. Nice job there though Evan.
Yeah most likely true haha, but I like making things from scratch. Now if only I could make it faster.. I'm currently using Curl to fetch the pages to get Google, Yahoo, MSN backlinks but as the script has to wait for each page to load which is one of the main slowdowns.
Yeah, there are quite a few of them around, but nothing wrong with another, though. The stronger one will prevail. I ran my domains on your tool which returned results differently. Yahoo lists about 160 links (not counting DP/forum signatures) and Google bot about the same (on my webmaster a/c). Why could it be so?
most likely because mine will return results for http://something.com and not http://www. I will be making it do both soon and add them together so you get a true count of backlinks. I'm likely going to take down the script and just put it up for download as theres really no place for web tools on my website. So if you like it and would like to get your hands on the code then it should only be a few days before its out.
The fact is, you could have made it your USP (of course, your choice, it is). It is a really promising tool you have there. Sorry to see it go. Are you planning to sell or hire it, something like that?
there are many out there that I have used and by far I like yours the best for speed and the simple lay out. Good Luck!
Very well made, thanks for sharing! Sort of off topic... when I tried to look up facebook with your tool it displayed some error message from google. Just curious as to what that means.
