This one has been making the rounds all week so it deserves a mention here. A couple of products have cropped up claiming to actively predict a websites future PR - before the update. Ludicrous? Isn't that like the holy grail of SEO? Good grief.
As it turns out iWEBTOOL does not predect pagerank. Sean has a great article on iWEBTOOL and really pulls their pants down on his blog.
The company has been debunked in several threads on the usual SEO forums Cheap Jerryd Bayless Shirt , but basically it is returning completely useless data unrelated to Pagerank whatsoever. Here's a quote from the excellent article linked above:
"It is using data which has nothing to do with PageRank to calculate your future PageRank. It is the equivalent of me wanting to find out how many apples will grow on my apple tree this year by going to count sheep in a field... Utterly pointless.
If it was easy or even possible to predict a websites future PageRank, then the system would quickly collapse as SEO companies discover how it works and exploit it. We would see websites shoot up the rankings and the whole Google system would be a shambles. There is a reason Google's algorithms are kept a secret. At this point, the only way to find out your websites future PageRank is to sit tight and wait for their next update!"
I guess the good side of this latest snake oil stuff is it gets us all talking about reverse engineering Google's Pagerank algo. I know I am working on it full time. Although my work has so far been limited to the coffee table and bong-hits phase, I am assured VC money is on the way. All joking aside it sure is funny reading all the fuss about PR rankings while everyone sweats out the wait. I mean - it is what it is - and it's seriously just not all that important.
But for those who care Cheap Darryl Dawkins Shirt , or if you are developing or just messing around with the Google API, you can obtain live PR scores fairly easily. Here is how real live Pagerank is calculated:

The important part of all this is: Rank_1:1:4, which shows I have a PageRank of 4. You can see how most of the well known PR tools are getting that data. Cool.
When running RustyBrick's tool I get the following dreary result:
Results: Your current Google PageRank is 4. Based on our calculations, we predict your future PageRank after the next Google update will be 4, an increase of 6.67%.
I have compiled a list of all of these tools on my latest ProfitPapers article Predicting Pagerank.
Is there a possibility for the concepts "food lovers" and "diet" to come together? Even though this question seems to very vague Cheap Charles Barkley Shirt , the truth is that even food lovers can still continue their love for eating without ruining their diet. Probably one of the taboos in dieting is eating in restaurants because many claim that foods in them are unhealthy especially for those who want to keep their health in top shape. Again, this is an unproven conviction because the concept of eating healthy foods depends on what the person eats and not on the place where he or she eats. Having meals in restaurants doesn't necessarily mean blowing up someone's diet plan but it does mean that the person is responsible in what he or she eats considering there are wide arrays of foods in there that are not fatty.
Tips in Healthy Restaurant Eating
The first tip when it comes to healthy eating in restaurants is to think beforehand what foods should you consume throughout the day. This way, you can still keep track of the low calorie diet in your regimen despite the tempting meals you found on restaurants. If more calories will be consumed at lunch, then you have to cut down on your calorie intake during dinner to keep the balance. Also Cheap Wilt Chamberlain Shirt , when it comes to ordering in restaurants, do not hesitate to request for some food modifications like removing the skin of chicken or taking out the rice in the steam fish meal. This way, you will still be eating your choice of food without the fear of ruining your diet. Planning is also an important matter when it comes to eating out. If you have already set your heart in having your dinner at your favorite restaurant, never skip your breakfast and lunch meals because this will just make you overindulge in ordering later on.
