One of my readers asked me to add to PageRank Spider tool an ability to resume the checking process after it has been incorrectly completed. This can take place if Google banned your IP or you closed the browser window prematurely or some error happened.

In new version you will see new button on the bottom of result page if the results are incomplete or have the errors.

Just click on this button and PageRank Spider will complete the current task. You will not see this button if the current results are complete and errorless.

Installation and upgrade instructions are described in INSTALL file.

New version also includes updated CodeIgniter (1.6.3) and jQuery (1.2.6) source files.

Some people asked me to add Alexa Rank checking to Mass PageRank Checker tool. It is more than simple and you can do it yourself if you have some coding skills. I described how to check Alexa Rank in CodeIgniter some posts ago. But if you are not a coder or you are very lazy coder ;-) - this post is for you! So, let me to announce new release of Mass PageRank Checker tool version 1.2.

The results table now will look like on the image below.

If you like my Mass PageRank Checker tool I’m sure that you will like the other my tool - PageRank Spider. You saw that I created the separate section named “Projects” where I will put together all my tools. You can also read all the information related to the tools there.

So, what is PageRank Spider? It’s a tool for checking Google PageRank for the internal web-pages of specified site. You just type your site’s URL, set additional options (see below) and run the tool. Then wait a little (depending on number of the internal pages) and finally get the results like in Mass PageRank Checker tool. Both tools have similar user interface, so you will not have problems with it I think.

By default the tool will crawl all the internal pages of a site. But you can limit their number by setting the level of depth. The one more option allows or prohibits to crawl subdomains. This can be useful if you have a big site with a lot of subdomains but you need to get the internal pages’ pagerank values for main domain pages only.

You can see screenshots and download the tool here.

Enjoy updated Mass PageRank Checker tool! The list of new features/updates:

• Ability to upload file with URLs
  
• Previous results are now divided into pages
  
• Results sorting feature
  
• Using the AJAX for displaying progress of the whole checking process

One of the ways to determine the age of the site is to use Wayback Machine. Just type your site’s URL and find the first record in results.

I wrote the function to automate this operation and included it to my SEO helper for CodeIgniter.

The following example shows how to use it:

$this->load->helper('seo');
$age = domain_age('codeigniter.com');
if ($age !== '-1')
{
  echo "Year: $age[year], month: $age[month], day: $age[day]";
}
else
{
  echo 'No records found!';
}

As you see this is very easy.
