Use Google Pagerank and Alexa for Better Deals on Cars

08.07.2009 · Posted in Home and Garden Articles

Although I surf the net almost daily, sifting through search results to find the most appropriate sites to answer my query can be a harrowing experience. My hobby is to trade cars and I find that several online classifieds catering to the buying and selling of cars do show up on the first page of Google but are often quite outdated and not frequently visited. That was until a friend of mine told me about Google Pagerank and Alexa.nnThe first thing I did was get the latest version of Firefox, an absolutely fantastic browser. The speed improved, I could conveniently view different sites on different tabs and could reopen the same tabs every time I reopened my browser. Even if my computer shut down on its own. The next thing I did was download and install Alexas website ranking and the Google Pagerank toolbars.nnAlexa is one of the premier website ranking authority on the web. The toolbar once installed shows up as a graph and number in the lower right corner of your Firefox browser and as a bar alongside each of the search results in Google. The number indicates the websites daily global traffic ranking with a lower number representing higher traffic. The bar is longer for higher-ranking sites and also displays the ranking number upon moving your cursor over the bar. The more visitors a site has the better the ranking.nnGoogles Pagerank grades websites on a scale of zero to ten and shows up in the upper section of your browser. Ten is the best score awarded and depends on a host of factors like number of visitors, how old the site is, new content and other high-ranking sites that link to it. The scores are revised after larger intervals of time.nnThe aim is to use the most appropriate keywords, like cars for sale, and locate sites that are rank well with in toolbars. I give Alexa priority as it shows me websites with frequent daily traffic and hence is a good indicator of car websites and classifieds that have fresh ads every day. I soon discovered that sites on the second and even third page often had a larger number and variety of ads for cars on sale. I got to explore new and far more useful sites and soon had a large resource for different cars and their prices. Finding a better deal became a whole lot easier.nnThe benefits of using this technique of searching are not limited to the sale and purchase of cars alone. It can be used for all your searches. You get results that are both fresh and reliable. I would recommend you try it right away especially of your looking for good deals on the internet.
