- What is PageRank? (May 29. 2007)
- PageRank is a numeric value that represents how important a page is on the web. Google figures that when one page links to another page, it is effectively casting a vote for the other page. The more votes that are cast for a page, the more important the page must be. Also, the importance of the page that is casting the vote determines how important the vote itself is. Google calculates a page's importance from the votes cast for it. How important each vote is is taken into account when a page's PageRank is calculated.

It¡Çs bad enough that he¡Çs a friend of Uncle Steve and he¡Çs paying you a fraction of what the big clients do—the big clients, who automatically assume that because you¡Çre the web designer you know best. But the fact he constantly challenges your thought process is driving you mad. Why should you have to justify your web design ideas when you know you¡Çre right and he¡Çs completely uninformed?
