Important Facts About PageRank

This article is simply a pointwise summary of all that is written in this blog or is going to be written.

*  PageRank is only one of numerous methods Google uses to determine a page’s relevance or importance.

*  PageRank is a floating-point number.

* PageRank of a site keeps on changing frequently, but Google updates the data in the toolbar only about once in 3 months.

*  PageRank does not rank web sites as a whole, but is determined for each page individually.

*  Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote by page A for page B. Google not only looks at the amount of votes, it also takes into account which page is casting the vote. PageRank of page A is important for page B to get a better PageRank.

*  PageRank is largely based on incoming links, but not just on the number of them – relevance and quality are in fact more important.

*  If you have a web page with a PR5 and have only one link on it, the site linked to would get a fair amount of PR value. But, if you have 50 links on that page, each individual link would only get a fraction of the value.

*  Irrelevant or bad incoming links don't help PR.

*  Each inbound link is important to the overall total. Except banned sites, which don’t count.

*  Content is not taken into account when PageRank is calculated.

*  Each Page Rank level is progressively harder to reach. PageRank is believed to be calculated on a logarithmic scale.
