Definition: PageRank is a type of
algorithm that specifically measures link analysis. It assigns
websites a numerical value based on relevance and reputation.
Many algorithms rank websites in a similar manner, but "PageRank" is a special version used solely by Google. The Google PageRank system rates websites on a 0-10 scale, 0 being the least relevant, 10 being the most relevant. Sites with a high PageRank are often more reliable and receive more traffic than those with a low PageRank.
