- An algorithm used by Google Search to rank web pages in their search engine results. PageRank is a way of measuring the importance of website pages. According to Google: “PageRank works by counting the number and quality of links to a page to determine a rough estimate of how important the website is. The underlying assumption is that more important websites are likely to receive more links from other websites.” Currently, PageRank is not the only algorithm used by Google to order search results, but it is the first algorithm that was used by the company, and the best known. PageRank was named after Larry Page, one of the founders of Google. ← Wikipedia
