Fusion Google Pagerank with Java

I was working on a module for an application of mine, and I’ve been struggling and searching in order to come up with a Google PageRank detector. I came up with a cool and accurate solution and I would love to share it with you.

I uploaded a Java Web Start small application! Check it out here

Btw, Java Runtime Environment is required, get it from java.com

Edit: The source code is available here.

Stay tuned!

    Pretty cool, I’ve been looking for a pagerank checker I can use on a site like this.

  8. [...] see your Google Pagerank, you can install the Google Toolbar. Or, I have created a simple Java Program that shows you your pagerank and I’ve provided the source code. Check it out! Related Posts:Google’s new [...]

    Hi Elie,

    I’m trying the code and it seems to work fine for most sites. For example the PageRank for CNN is being returned correctly as 10. However, the rank for FoxNews is being returned as -1 whereas it should be around 8. Do you know why this happens?

    Thanks. ;-)

      I’m not sure Ed, it’s been a while I haven’t messed with that Code. But I guess it has to do with the Google servers… Please drop me a live if you find the problem.

    Hey Elie

    Great job with the app but it does have a major bug that it doesn’t work with all websites. Seems the checksum is wrong. Like it doesn’t work for http://www.google.com and http://www.cnn.com

    Any ideas? The whole checksum part went over my head…. trying to research it now

    Cheers

    I found another script that works for every domain I have tested against. Although it doesn’t seem to be able to calc page rank for internal pages.

    I can’t remember where I found it but send me a msg and I’ll gladly share it

    • Elie says:

      The script you sent strips the rest of the url. Delete or fix line 115 of the php code you sent and it will grab pageranks for internal pages as well.

  12. Kris says:

    Doesn’t line 115 just add a http on the URL if it is not there?

    • Elie says:

      Oups, I guess you’re right.

      Anyway, I learned recently that Google Pagerank is no longer going to be public. And I guess this protocol has become deprecated.

      Just my $0.02.

  13. Kris says:

    Where did you read that?

    The pagerank that google makes public is apparently not very accurate any way but it is better then completely fishing in the dark
