This is a score which Google uses to determine how useful a page will be to visitors. In essence, the Page Ranking is higher for websites which are linked to by popular and important sites. An understanding of how the score is calculated, which is explained in the  article at the link below, will help you to maximise  the search engine ranking of your website. See the tips section below for useful tips on how to increase your PageRanking.<BR></FONT><FONT face=Verdana><A href="http://www.iprcom.com/papers/%0D%0Apagerank/index.html">http://www.iprcom.com/papers/pagerank/index. html</A></FONT><A class=moz-txt-link- href="http://smh.com.au/%0D%0Aarticles/2002/06/11/1022982835152.html" freetext=""><FONT face=Verdana></FONT></A> </P> <P><FONT face=Verdana color=#f0ae09><STRONG>NEWS YOU CAN USE </STRONG></FONT></P> <P><FONT face=Verdana><STRONG>Content management systems<BR></STRONG>For those who want to know more about content management systems, a review on a very useful book is available at:  <BR><A href="http://www.webreference.com/%0D%0Aauthoring/languages/html/cmsystems/" eudora="autourl">http://www. webreference.com/authoring/languages/html/cmsystems/</A><FONT face="Times New Roman"> </FONT></FONT></P> <P><FONT face=Verdana><STRONG>20% Referrer discount<BR></STRONG></FONT><FONT face=Verdana>Our aim is to provide top quality websites and a service that is so good you recommend it to your customers and colleagues.

To maximise the benefits of  a high score for your home page, make sure it includes your most important key words, and a concise but effective summary of what you offer.</FONT></P> <P><FONT face=Verdana><STRONG>TIP 13:</STRONG> Increasing the amount of content on your website will increase it's rPage Ranking. Use the content management system to gradually build up more information. Good information pages will also be linked to by other websites which will further increase your score. </FONT></P> <P><FONT face=Verdana><STRONG>TIP 14:</STRONG> When exchanging links with another website, ask them to link to your home page or another key section page. The page which is linked to gets the  maximum benefit to its page ranking.</FONT></P> <P><FONT face=Verdana><STRONG>TIP 15:</STRONG> In addition to checking the results of keyword searches, go to the Google directory. If your website has been listed it will be shown in ranking order - this can be a useful indication of how well your website is doing.</FONT></P> <P><STRONG><FONT face=Verdana color=#f0ae09>WEB WORDS</FONT></STRONG></P> <P><STRONG><FONT face=Verdana>Search engine ranking</FONT></STRONG></P> <P><FONT face=Verdana>Search engine ranking is how close to the top of the list your website appears when you search on relevant keywords. It will vary depending on the keywords and search engine (Google, Yahoo, etc). Most keywords are highly competitive, and getting in the top ten is not an easy achievement.</FONT></P> <P><STRONG><FONT face=Verdana color=#f0ae09>WEBSITE OF THE MONTH</FONT></STRONG> </P> <P><FONT face=Verdana><IMG alt="" src="http://www.websitesatwork.com.au/weftweb/editimages/xtreme-simplicity.jpg" align=left border=0>Our September website of the month is Xtreme Simplicty <A href="http:%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A//www.xtreme-simplicity.net/">http://www.xtreme-simplicity.net/ </A></FONT><FONT face=Verdana>.
