Want to know how your web site ranks in search engines? On this page you will find some of the popular tools and services for finding rankings of a web site. Note: The web page ranking tools and service simply provide an idea how a page ranks, they do not help in increasing your web page rankings.

Google PageRank
The famous Google PageRank comes with the Google Toolbar. The Google PageRank ranks a page on a scale of 0 to 10 where 10 is the highest. Google PageRank is based on several factors including number of in-bound links (other web pages that link to web page which is being ranked). Google.com carries a PageRank of 10 and so do Yahoo.com and MSN.com. Google PageRank is available on the Google Toolbar
Google Tool Bar.

Though, “Googlerankings.com is in no way affiliated, sponsored or in any way the property of or responsibility of Google.com.”, it’s still a great service. What I like about this site is that one can enter a set keywords and find out how a web page ranks in Google. However, I find that the ranking reported by the site are a few positions lower than the actual rank one sees when searching on Google. For example, my site www.biotechdesk.com ranks third on Google.com for the keyword “biotechnology india”, however, GoogleRankings.com reports its rank as 7th. Similarly, for the keyword “biotechnology consultancy” my site gets 6th rank on googlerankings.com while its actual rank when searched for on google.com is 4th.
Note: Google.com ranks keep changing. The above info was obtained on 6th July 2004.
The Googlerankings web site provides several other services – Determining the best keywords of your site and Keyword Density.
For your information, Googlerankings.com web page gets a Google PageRank of 5 (6th July 2004).

Alexa
The Alexa service provides a rank for your web site as a whole. Even though I tried entering my web page URL, it ignores the page name and provides the number for the web site. Alexa rank is an indicator of people who came to your site, thus the popularity of your site. Learn how Alexa determines your web page rankings.
