How is Google page ranking working? There are thousands of websites trying to explain the algorithm behind the ranking. If you’re good in math, you can even try to have a look at wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank).
Finally I found a great article about ranking with a visualization. Martin Missfeldt on his blog http://www.tagseoblog.com is seeing the following factors:
- Backlinks
- Content
- Authority
- Trust
- Reviews
- Retweets
- Facebook Shares
- in some cases: Reviews
As always, visualization makes it so much easier…
