What is Fake Page Rank?

Because PR (Google Page Rank) is an indication of a domain name or website's importance (and, therefore, earning potential and value), pagerank fraud has become a serious problem. Frequently, when someone offers a domain name or website for sale, they artificially inflate the domain or website's PR via surreptitious 301 or 302 redirects that point the domain name or site to domains or sites with a high Pagerank. Although this is a well known trick in the SEO (Search Engine Optimization) world, many buyers and other people who aren't familiar with SEO, still fall for this.

Use our Fake Pagerank Checker to see if a domain or website has real or fake PR.

What is Alexa Rank?

Alexa.com's ranking of a website is measured according to the number of users who've visited the site with the Alexa toolbar installed.

What are BackLinks?

Backlinks are incoming links (backlinks) to a website or web page. The number of backlinks is an indication of the popularity or importance of that website or page. Search engines often use the number of backlinks that a website has as one of the factors for determining that website's search engine ranking. For example, Google's PageRank algorithm uses backlinks to help determine a site's rank.
