I must say Google search disappoints a bit by placing too much emphasis on commercial links. Say I have a billion dollars. Then I can hire people to promote my web site on their (more or less “legit” as in “independent”) web sites … Sounds like some sort of scam … Anyway, these folks at majesticseo are crawling the web and producing their own metrics for web pages and URLs. They sell subscribtions. So, they know about search engine stuff and the blog post mentions another “ranking” besides PageRank (r) and it’s called:
MozRank
