How to Check Pagerank?
Fastest way to check pagerank is to install the Google Toolbar (toolbar.google.com). It can be customized to take up minimal space, and fit nicely at the top of your browser.
Checking faked or false Pagerank
There are several methods of spotting faked pagerank.
- One simple way is to check to see how many backlinks the site has. If a site has no (or very few) yahoo backlinks, then it should not have a high pagerank. For example a website claims to have a pagerank of 5+, but when you check it shows no or very few backlinks (100 is very low for a website of PR5).
- Another way to check is to use Google's INFO: DOMAINNAME
In Google type: info:domainname.com
Please see the picture:
In this example here we see an actual website (causeconcepts.com) faking its pagerank. While we have typed info:causeconcepts.com into the search box, the results returned the website www.drakeco.com, from which it was taking the PR.
Real PR belongs to www.drakeco.com and causeconcepts.com doesn't have any pagerank. It is either doing a 301 / 302 redirect directly or with the use of cloaking in order to get fake PR from drakeco.com
If you are suspecting a faked pagerank, leave this website and search for another one. Detecting a pagerank that is forged can be done with online tools too, but I always recommend the manual check, so you can see what exactly it is doing.
