Checking Your Google Pagerank

Pagerank is becoming a hot topic amongst Search Engine Optimization ethusiasts. Pagerank is proprietary to Google and is a system they have created in order to detail relevancy to the topic the website is advertising. This system was created for Google to better publicize websites with relative content.

The pagerank system is a rating system from 0 to 10. All websites indexed by Google start with no rating at all, not necessarily a zero. Once Google updates their pageranks for websites they are ranked or re-ranked from 0 to 10. Surprising to no one, Google has a pagerank of 10.

When trying to optimize your website for high ranking on the Search Engine Results Page (SERP) various items are used to prioritize websites. However, pagerank alone is not what gets your site listed high. Ultimately, you will soon relize that there are websites that appear on the first page of the SERP that do not have a high page ranking. Many don't necessarily have meta tags that contain the keywords search. Therefore, it is quite obvious that Google uses many factors in determing the SERP listing.

Additionally, remember this is Google's system so other search engines use all of these other criteria as well. Some of these criteria and meta tag information, keyword saturation within your content, and how many backlinks and one way links exist pointing to your website.
