Google page rank (somewhat) revealed
It seems that Google has filed a patent regarding their search engine technology recently. In doing so Google have had to reveal more information on how they actually rank web sites and pages. Some things I knew to be important; like how many links to a site there is. That however is only partly true. What I didn’t know is that they seem to weigh in how fast the number of links to your site increases. If they increase too fast Google might think it is search engine spam. There are many more tips…
Another weird thing they do, probably to prevent spam and malicious sites getting to much attention, is that they check the domain registration date as well as the domain contact and billing details. I have found two sites discussing this in more detail.
The best thing, apart from having more details revealed, is that it actually looks like they are trying to prevent the impact of search engine spam and comment spam.
