Page rank measures the importance of a page using the Google page rank formula:
PR(A) = (1-d) + d (PR(T1)/C(T1) + ... + PR(Tn)/C(Tn))
The page rank shown on a tool bar is actually a scaled number between 0-10. The scaling is logarithmic to accommodate the widely different number of IBL’s, where a linear scale would not convey the information appropriately.

Naturally, some pages are a very strong PR-5(i.e. almost a PR-6), or a very weak PR-6. Therefore, we allow a user to set the strength of the page. The default is 0.5(i.e. it’s the equivalent of a PR5.5 page).Now, if the above holds, then “1”, “2” or “3” are irrelevant. Our contention is that Google has not changed the Page Rank calculation in any significant way, aside from tweaking the constants.The proof is obviously in the pudding. Let’s take three sample sites and see how the update of April 6, 2006 has affected them.
