Page Ranks

We did an activity in class to determine which websites you think have either a high, medium or low page rank. In order to check a website's ranking, we used this Google PageRank Checker website to determine it.

For high, I thought of Apple because everyone goes on the Apple website and interacts with its forums and purchase items. I was certainly right! They received a 9 out of 10!



For medium, I thought of the Sheridan College website due to the mediocre popularity in terms of what I assume will only be a handful of couple of thousands of people visiting it. After checking the rank, I was right and it got a 6 out of 10!

For low, I thought of Konami because of its niche following. Surprisingly enough, it was ranked 6 out of 10, so it upheld a strong medium in terms of ranking!

Here are some numbers to refer to in terms of Majestic SEO reports:
