Google PageRank helps a website rank higher, and the algorithm is based on the concept that a page is deemed to be important if other important pages link to it.

Search Engine Journal contributor Dixon Jones has published an article explaining Google PageRank for SEO beginners.

He says, “PageRank was once at the very core of search – and was what made Google the empire it is today.

Even if you believe that search has moved on from PageRank, there’s no denying that it has long been a pervasive concept in the industry.

Every SEO pro should have a good grasp of what PageRank was – and what it still is today.
