I did some really quick investigation into Google PageRank or PR.
A rating is assigned to your website based on a lot of factors. Google mentions 500 million variables and 2 billion terms http://www.google.com/corporate/tech.html.
| Google also mentions on the same web page: “PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page’s value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, | |
| for page B. But, Google looks at more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives; it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves “important” weigh more heavily and help to make other pages “important.”(http://www.google.com/corporate/tech.html) |  |
Ratings:
0 to 2 = Below Average
3 to 5 = Average example: www.captainharveys.com
6 to 7 = Above Average example: www.baltimoresun.com
8 to 10 = Elite example: www.baltimoreravens.com
If you are not aware there is a simple Firefox plugin called WebRank Toolbar (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/52177) which seems pretty cool. Every website you visit is given a Google page rank rating instantly when you visit it.
Additionally, Alexa, Compete, Quantcast rankings are listed with the number of links in Google, Yahoo, and Bing.
