Awesome tool for LIVE PR (not toolbar PR)

I found a tool that you can use to check your LIVE (not toolbar) page rank at all times. Very sweet.

If you have Firefox, go here:

Works great and you can check all your pages and see what you need to work on

Enjoy

Hey Scott,

nice tool. Thanks for letting us know.

No prob--really checking vbseo's work.

AWSOME job!

Great

Thanks

it provides wrong information.. a few of my sites have pr 2 using this tool those sites show pr 3 or p4 ?

This is Live Page Rank. Not page rank that was updated the last public page rank update.

The Live PageRank calculator gives you the current PageRank value in the Google index, not just the snapshot that is displayed in the toolbar. Google updates its internal PageRank value continuously as the web changes and their index is updated. Only once every third month or so this value is exported to be displayed in the Google Toolbar.

What senior Google engineer Matt Cutts has to say about updates:

What is an update? Google updates its index data, including backlinks and PageRank, continually and continuously. We only export new backlinks, PageRank, or directory data every three months or so though. (We started doing that last year when too many SEOs were suffering from `B.O.', short for backlink obsession.) When new backlinks/PageRank appear, we've already factored that into our rankings quite a while ago. So new backlinks/PageRank are fun to see, but it's not an update; it's just already-factored-in data being exported visibly for the first time in a while.

The Live PageRank value may be used as an indicator of what will show when Google decides to export the PageRank values to the Google Toolbar.

does that means my site(s) has pagerank of 4 instead of 2 ?

Currently, if that is correct which I assume it is. The only way to verify is when Google does it's update.

I hope it's correct. Here are some of mine. First number is Google Toolbar, second number is this new tool.

That last one.. that would be nice, but it does seem a luittle far-fetched.

I think their formula may be a bit off.

Looks like it's down at the moment.. I am getting 0/10 for most pages, n/a for the rest.

Mine too. Maybe BigDaddy is on to us
