    Nice. I first heard of Google Alert a couple months ago.. someone had left a comment on my blog, which had not been promoted at all – there was no way for anyone to really find it, I asked how the commenter found my site and he said through Google Alerts. I blogged about something to do with his business – anyway, I like the idea of using it to pinpoint active discussions in your niche, and thats exactly what this guy did, I guess. I won’t shamefully link to the post on my blog, but it’s labeled ‘MonsterCommerce Review’ If you want to see what I’m talking about.

The higher the pagerank, the more Google will pay attention to the link back from that site. You can discover the pagerank of any site by installing the Google Toolbar and then visiting a site.
