I thought I'd illumine the world with the process of how I came up with the idea of SEO Rank. If this really gets your juices flowing, later we can calculate the value of Pi to 10,000 decimal places.
I was thinking the other day that we need a better way to track our SEO progress. We need to find one measuring stick that we can use to measure all the hard work we do to improve site positions for any given keyword across all the top search engines. So I created one.
I call it SEO Rank (I hope I didn't step on anyone's toes there) and it measures the effectiveness of your SEO efforts...

I found a couple of problems in the SEO Rank Calculator 1.0 that I fixed in SEO Rank Calculator 1.1. This new version fixed a bug that prevented Google from parsing properly which occasionally dropped a site from it's position. The SEO Rank Calculator tool calculates SEO rank by assigning weight to the top five search engines according to overall U.S. search volume and returns a number between one and 100. You can still get the source code when you register for free at the site. The SEO Rank Calculator tool and an explanation of the calculation can be found at http://www.danwegner.com/content/view/69/31/. |

Today, Dan Wegner launched the SEO Rank Calculator at www.danwegner.com. The tool provides an accurate and objective ranking for a given search term and base url (e.g. www.mysite.com). The tool calculates SEO Rank by assigning weight to the top five search engines according to overall U.S. search volume and returns a number between one and 100. Dan Wegner is also giving away the source code when you register for free at the site. The SEO Rank Calculator tool and an explanation of the calculation can be found at http://www.danwegner.com/content/view/69/31/. |

Only the top five search engines are used accounting for '.$shareTotal.' percent of all U.S. searches. The total is then adjusted to reflect a score between zero and 100 with 100 indicating the number one position on all five search engines.
