Solution Log Out From Google When Checking Page Ranks!!

Keyword Catcher allows you to check up on your website's page rank and see the page that was served to your visitor by the search engines, provided you do this reasonably soon. If you wait a couple of days after your visitor came to your site through a search engine query, chances are you will not see the exact same page your visitor was served.

This is because the search engines update webpage rankings daily. Checking your page rank using your Keyword Catcher link a few days after you have received it will produce a page for which the links have been updated by the search engines. The probability is very high that you will not see what your visitor has seen.

If you are logged into any of Google's pages as a user (Webmaster Tools, Analytics, Gmail, Picasa, YouTube, Knol, Blog, AdSense, AdWords, Alerts...) log out before checking up on page ranks.

Because Google references your web browser activity when you are logged in, it will serve an inaccurate result and you might be led to believe that your web page ranks better than it actually does.

You might want to try checking your page ranks when you are logged into Google, for example for Gmail, and then logging out, and checking the same link for page rank. You will be amazed to see that in many cases the results are not similar.
