Pagerank 10 sites you probably have not visited before - UPDATE
Posted by multippt
I’m sure you have heard about Google pagerank. I’m sure most people have a tough time even struggling past 4. But, if it’s so hard to get a pagerank of more than 4, what about 10? I guess you have known about a few well-known pagerank-10 sites like the official Microsoft site and Google. How about the other lesser-known varieties?
I guess you’ve never bothered visited these pagerank 10 sites before:
-Energy.gov (43000+ backlinks)
-Keio University [Japan] (4000+ backlinks)
-Ercim (1500+ backlinks)
-MIT labs for Computer Science (4200+ backlinks)
Pagerank 10 sites you may have heard of, or maybe visited it:
-The white house [US] (67800+ backlinks)
-IBM (61700+ backlinks) [*]
-Cisco (21700+ backlinks) [*]
-Statcounter (1330000+ backlinks) [*] [The large amount of backlinks could be coming from the stat counter it provides]
-Real Media (130000+ backlinks) [The place where you download RealPlayer]
-Apache Software Foundation (51400+ backlinks) [*]
-National Science Foundation [US] (27100+ backlinks)
-W3 (166000+ backlinks)
-Macromedia (31600+ backlinks)
-NASA (64400+ backlinks)
-Download.com (816000+ backlinks) [*]
Pagerank 10 Sites that are known by many:
-Google [The one who created Google pagerank] (claims to have 3800000+ backlinks) [pagerank might actually be spoofed, some users have noticed that Google had a dissapointing pagerank of 8]
-Microsoft (88300+ backlinks)
-Apple computers (74400+ backlinks)
-Adobe (82600+ backlinks) [*]
-Yahoo (1780000+) [new addition to the pagerank 10 family]
Hmm, where’s Yahoo in the pagerank 10 list? Though Yahoo may be the top site in the world as stated by Alexa, and having a large amount of backlinks (1780000+), it seems to have a pagerank of 9…
Hmm, another site worth mentioning is MSN search by Microsoft. It once had a pagerank of 0 a few days ago [hmm, maybe the site change resulted in a pagerank reset]. The recent pagerank update gave it a 8/10.
[*] - no longer in pagerank 10 “club” after Google pagerank update on 28 April, that is their pagerank value fell.
Edit: The recent pagerank update requires me to edit this post :P
Update: Arg… the September update practically made this list completely outdated. Well, at least it serves as good historical record.
