Accurate Pagerank

Every page in Google?s database has a numeric value that represents its general importance in Google's opinion. This is the PageRank. Google divides all websites on the Internet into groups according to this number. You may have already encountered this familiar division to ten groups marked from 1 to 10 (PR1-PR10) and a penalty group (PR0).

Few people are aware of the fact that there is an additional division of Internet webpages that has only seven groups. That is the Google Site Guide. In this guide Google also divides the webpages in its cache into groups, but in this case only into seven groups.

Now that we know that the site is located in group 22, we can refer to the following table:

You can see that a website that is located in group 22 is parallel to a high PR5 or a low PR6 group.
