Google's Page Rank

Many of us are not aware of Google's Page Rank. In fact, a casual surfer or a blogger doesn't have to know what it is. However, being the owner of a website, if you are interested in bringing many visitors to your website then you have to be worried about your page rank. Page rank is a number ranging from 1 to 10. Rank 1 is the minimum and 10 is the maximum. If the rank is 0,then there is no rank for your website. Page rank is awarded by Google, the search engine. It is just an algorithm developed by one of Google's founders and therefore it got the name. Page rank refers to the quality or value of your website in the eyes of Google. If your page rank is high, it will bring a lot of visitors from Google. Google normally awards the rank once in every 3 months,however it is not standard. Last time around, it made a round up in just 1 1/2 months. If your site has consistently original content Google will give you a high rank. If your content is copied and has links to some low graded websites, then you will get a low page rank. Also, the page rank will be according to the number of quality back links to your website.
