urlrateI know that there are actually dozens or maybe even hundreds of web tools out there that allows bloggers to find out either how much their website is worth or a rating out of 10 based on multiple sources. Recently launched URL R*TE is not an exception. Grabbing data from several sources such as age of domain, Google Pagerank, number of inbound links and Alexa traffic rank.

It didn’t explicitly shows the percentage it takes into consideration for the calculations of the ratings. However, I feel that the most important factor got to be at the top and that is the age of domain. According to URL R*TE, it says that “The older your domain, the more valued it becomes and the easier it is to become a trusted domain in many people’s eyes (including Google’s).”

After entering your blog’s URL, it scans your webpage and finds the information they need. At the bottom of the page, you’ll see a site value report that shows you the estimation value of your blog based on the factors I’ve mentioned above. You can share URL rating with the readers on your blog by embedding the widget into anywhere you want.

I’ve tried it out and guessed what – my rating was 1.87 out of a maximum of 10! That’s actually a failure but I’ve nothing to worry about since my blog is just around a week old and my Alexa rank and Google Pagerank isn’t that high as compared to my previous blogspot blog. KidTechGuru managed to clinch a passing mark of 5.19. So what’s yours?

    bankaholic.com sold for 15 million in October. The domain was registered in 2006. With this one it looked like content and traffic were the key to the value.

    I like your new site!

    When I did mine, it put my domain age as 7 months which is almost a whole year off. I registered my domain on November 2007 so why is this happening?

    Can you please explain why it is not showing my blog. Google as sometime doesn’t show my blog for many links. Like if I search for site:mywayofearning.blogspot.com but when I say link:mywayofearning.blogspot.com it shows nothing.
