This image above of the page rank algorithm is courtesy of Wikipedia. What are some of the contributors to the ranking of a Google Page Rank for your website or blog?
How can you check yours and other websites page rank? They are several ways and my favorite is installing any of the follow toolbars on your brower:
Is Google Page Rank important anymore? There is a dispute among webmasters and most say it's not that important. But it will establish the crawl priority and crawl depth of a website. It is also a tool some webmasters still use to decide whether or not to link to your website. When we first started our storefront no one responded to our email requests for links on our resources page. Today we get emails daily asking us to link.
It used to be that Google changed Page Rank on a monthly or quarterly basis, it is now done randomly. I noticed this website got a 2 ranking last week and our storefront went from a 3 to a 4. There are few websites that have a ranking of ten, like Google itself and Facebook. See more 10 ranked websites here.
