My Search Engine Journey

Today I begin the task of creating a place for myself in Google Search

The website name I'm going to work with is www.classof2008graduation.com

The first thing I'm going to do is see how many pages are indexed
How do I check to see if my webpages are indexed?

After a little research I discovered that all I have to do is go to google and type in
site:www.classof2008graduation.com
I hit return and got the results
It says I have 4 pages indexed. This is good. The site has 5 pages

My next step is to see how Google ranks my page importance
I'll visit each of my pages while using the google tool bar and
look at the page ranking that appears
You can see this as a bar to the right of the google search box
You do need to have the Google Task Bar loaded but it's such a good tool bar that I don't know why you wouldn't

Yikes...I have no page rank at all
Gotta figure out how to fix that. That's tonights goal. Find out how to improve search rank.
