PageRank
Search quality is not only a function of indexing everything - it’s sorting out the “junk” results.
Developed in 1997 by Google co‐founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page as part of a project at Stanford.
Based on how authority of scientific papers is determined.
PR is a mathematical formula that judges the “value of a page” based on a logrithmic value of 1-10 based on inbound link value.
Google stopped reporting PR publicly in 2016 - but it’s still the #1 factor.
