I found a couple of page rank tools that seem quite nice and handy.
Nothing to brain explosiony here but they are handy enough tools, a little more investigation is needed, to see if there is any value in adding these tools to my site. Though i was thinking that targeting better ranking pages and or partnerships will do no harm to your own sites page rank if they will link to you. That is targeting blogs with similar content and posting on those site to recieve a back link, rather than just posting on any site.Especially if the content is complimentary to your own site thus making it relevant.
Remember relevance is always important to Search.
Both of these site allow you to grab some code and display results from there tools on your own site.
It just occurred to me that these little pieces of code also provide hard coded links back to their sites.
Not a bad way to pick up back links especially if you are a software developer or software development company.
So if you know how provide some free tools on your site. Allow users to cut and paste code so they can add these tools to their own sites, provided they need to point back to your site to get the results. you get some traffic and you get a few back links. NICE!
Anyway here are the tools I was talking about, which led me down this track.
Google page rank page
and
Who links to me
As I said nothing to amazing but still any tool used correctly can give you some help.

Well hopefully quicker than me !
I just searched for my site on google and found that I have been indexed - Yippee finally.
What did i do
* Posted on Yahoo answers a couple of times
* Included a link on another site I own that has been indexed
* Have been picked up by a couple of site scraping blogging adsense dudes that have back linked to my blog
* Added a google xml site map
* Traded links with sqlanswers
* Added back links to my my space page and my space blog
* and technorati picked me up as well.
* Oh and submited my URL to Google
* and then clicked on every google search result that contained my site
Did all that make a difference who knows but i do know it took way to long say around 3 weeks.
I have a few other sites that i want to index so I may try a bit of experimentation once i get a little bit of page rank on this site.
It will be interesting to see which site indexes first.

Install the WordPress Google Analytics Plugin
- Download Denis’s Google Analytics plugin.
- Unzip the plugin.
- Upload the plugin to your /wp-content/plugins/ folder.
- Go to your WordPress blog’s Dashboard > Plugins. A list of both active and inactive plugins displays.
- Scroll to the plugin and Activate it. A success message displays.
Grab Your Google Analytics Code Block
- In another browser window (Ctrl+N or Command+N), login to Google Analytics at http://google.com/analytics/. The main Settings page loads.
- Click on Add Website Profile. A form displays.
- Select Add a Profile for a New Domain.
- Enter the URL of your site or blog.
- Select your country and time zone. Click Finish.
- Analytics provides you with a code block - a swatch of HTML - to add to your site’s pages.
Add the Google Analytics Code Block to Your WordPress Blog
- Back in your WordPress Dashboard, go to Options > Google Analytics.
- The options screen displays with a text field. Paste your Google Analytics Code Block into that text field and click Update Options.
You have now added your Google Analytics Code Block to Your WordPress blog.
Check Your Work
- To ensure that you have successfully added the Google Analytics Code Block to your Blogger blog, go back to http://google.com/analytics/.
- Next to your blog’s URL it will say either Receiving Data (you were successful) or Tracking Not Installed (something is amiss).
- If it said Tracking Not Installed, click on Check Status. Google then checks your blog for the Analytics Code Block and reports back if it find it or not.
- If not, try re-adding the Google Analytics Code Block.
That is it
Simple huh
Try it out see if it works for you it did for me.
