Tools to View PageRank of Links on a Web Page
November 30th, 2006 by Jason
Do you know the Google PageRank (PR) of the links on your web page?
There are several ways you can find out the link PRs:
- Enter each link URL in a PR checking service, or
- Open each link and see the PR in Google Toolbar, or
- Use the Website PR Overlay tool by SEO Bench or Visual PageRank tool by iWebTool
With the Website PR Overlay or Visual PageRank tool, all you need to do is enter the URL of a web page and you will see the PageRank values graphically overlayed on top of all the links found on the web page.
Visual PageRank tool provides additional visual cues to identify external links and links with rel=”nofollow”. Neat!

Useful tool but kind of gimmicky - who would want to clutter up their sidebar with a load of PR values in addition to the links themselves? There’s no doubt that it’s important to try and link to relevant, high PR sites, but there’s no real need to display the PRs on the page.
Hi, I believe there’s a confusion here.
The tool is a quick way to get a visual view of the PageRanks of all links on a web page “on demand”.
It’s not meant to be a permanent feature of a web page.
