Google Page Rank

[Panky]

The Google Toolbar ranks a page on a scale from 0-10. So a score of 4 simply means the page ranks in the 40% of all pages in that particular category. The trick is, a page could be in the upper 4, almost a 5, or in the lower 4.

They could have a good pagerank using the Google Toolbar, but that doesn't necessarily mean they have a high rank in the actual search engine listings. Sometimes pages are displayed with a Google Toolbar pagerank that have not actually been indexed in Google yet.

Google has 3 main data centers. www.google.com , www2.google.com, and www3.google.com. Depending on which data center you use, the results in the Google Toolbar can differ.

Google Toolbar is still a good tool, but it does have it's ups and downs. It's just simply a tool. It's only one tiny factor in the whole link exchange, page rank, SEO thing. Everytime the Google Dance occurs, the Google Toolbar results will also change. It's just a guide. It's not the "Holy Grail" of SEO.
