Sites With A PageRank of 10

Google’s PageRank stat supposedly shows the relative importance of a site, based on a number of inscrutable factors but most prominently the number of links back to the site. The scale ranges from 1 to 10 and is a logarithmic function. So sites with a PageRank of ten are the most important ones on the ‘net. Who are they? Well, Google, for one. And Statcounter.com. Here are a few others:

Find the Top 500 Keywords

If you look amidst all the advertising on Top Keywords Site, you will find a tool that will tell you the top keywords over the last 24 hours and the last 8 weeks. The last eight weeks is probably the more useful of the tools.

Here’s something I don’t understand, though. In the top six searches are Google, Yahoo, Mapquest and Ebay.

What are these people doing? Using Google to find Google? Why would you use a search engine to find Yahoo?

I have a theory. I think that many of these people have a search engine toolbar installed, and are typing the address into the search engine area rather than into the address bar.
