What’s the difference between page rank and Google toolbar PR.?

**rickybollinger** · 12-30-2010, 05:21 AM

I think google pagerank is the best one.

PR stands for PageRank. They are the same thing.

Well, they may not to be the same.
Google assigns PR value for each page and updates the value constantly, BUT exports actual value to Google Toolbar few times per year. So, the real value may be different from value we are seeing on Google toolbar.
Especially last update was more than 6 months ago and I believe that there is big difference.

PR stands for "PageRank" or it can stand for "Press Release" or "Public Relations".

I understand that not all PageRank is displayed with the same value. This may depend on time, or which PageRank server is accessed.

But if PR does not mean PageRank, please list a resource where is can be verified that it is something other that a shorthand way to say PageRank. :-)

It really depends what you mean by "page rank"

**Christian_SEO** · 12-31-2010, 03:10 PM

I think the OP means "[utl=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank]PageRank[/url]" and not "page rank".

Hmmm, from Wikipedia

Quote:

Google has not disclosed the precise method for determining a Toolbar PageRank value. The displayed value is not the actual value Google uses so it is only a rough guide. ‘Toolbar’ PageRank is different from Google PageRank because the PageRank displayed in the toolbar is not 100% reflective of the way Google judges the value of a website.

While this does indicate that what articlequeen said is true, there is no explanation of where this information comes from and if it is indeed true. After all, where else does PageRank information come from except the place where the toolbar get's it's data?

PR itself means page rank. and you can see page rank from google toolbar, that is simple.

Hi, The Google pagerank is very often discussed by webmasters on many forums. When they talk about the pagerank many of them don't understand what is the difference between Real Pagerank and the value displayed by Google toolbar. Continue reading to learn about the difference.Pagerank is very difficult algorithm. In short the more websites are linking to your domain the higher pagerank will your site get. This is real pagerank. It is updated in real time so if you get a few links pointing to your web today your real pagerank will be increased as soon as the spider will find these links.

PR(page rank) you can see it using google tool bar.

**telx** · 01-17-2011, 01:06 AM

google tool bar also provide the information about the page rank, there is an symbol that provide the information about the page rank of the website.

**linkbullets** · 01-17-2011, 05:23 AM

hi,

There is no difference between them. Basically Google toolbar is a facility provide by Google search engine which have the following options available for webmasters to have check out the website page rank, similar pages and back ward links.

Its something like this

Tool bar PR : ok this is not the real PR this is a smiler to it and mostly this will updating four times per year but original pr not like this it will updating frequently (daily).

so my advice is : as a seo don't fallow the tool bar pr actually i am using tool bar pr for get and basic idea about the site.but real pr is different from that.

**essayserviceuk** · 01-17-2011, 06:25 AM

they both are the same think google tool bar just show the Page Rank of the page
