Page Rank

How do I find it out?

[galaga]

How do I find out my sites page rank? My site used to be listed with DMOZ but doesn't seem to be any more. Does this mean Page Rank is zero? Also, would it be okay to resubmit to DMOZ? I'm vastly updating my site anyway.

Download the Google Toolbar [toolbar.google.com].

I can't because I use a Mac :(

If it´s the site in your profile then your PR is 4.

Your site will not be listed in DMOZ if it falls under their affiliate rule. I don´t know whether your content is unique in their sense. But trying again won´t hurt you.

Hello Galaga - welcome to the board.

You ask for your page rank. Page Rank is a term and concept specific to Google, it denotes Google's system to measure a page's importance.
So if your site is listed in Google you have a PageRank attached to each page. How do you find out how high your page rank is - without the toolbar? Ask a windows friend (if you should have one ;)

Usually you could go to the Google directory, which is a near mirror of the ODP / Dmoz org, and shows page rank attached to the listings.

You say however your site is not in odp. If you feel your site complies with the guidelines there, you should resubmit. It's still probably the most important listing you can get on the web.

Having been dropped out of the odp does not neccessarily mean your PageRank has gone to zero. All links to your site count, Odp is just one of the important links.

Thanks guys :) Is PR 4 any good? I'm surprised it's as high as that because I don't have many inbound link (only one I think). :)

You´ve got one PR5 and one PR4 link from the sites you´ll find by googling link:http://www.yoursite.tld/freeRTTTL.htm.

PR4 is about average.

galaga,

A pr4 is about average. I would have to agree with heini about resubmitting to odp. As long as your site meets the guidelines you should definitly resubmit
