The Development of the PageRank Algorithm

The Development of the PageRank Algorithm
Together, Brin and Page developed the PageRank algorithm to convert the backlink data that measured the importance of any given webpage. While they were analyzing the results from this, they realized that a search engine would in fact produce more efficient results than the current technologies.
The duo began to create the foundation for search engine, and by 1997, they had created the beginnings of Google. When it originated, it only used the Stanford website as a domain. The domain name was “google.standford.edu.” On September 15, 1997, the domain name “google.com” was registered. On September 4, 1998, they incorporated their company “Google Inc.” at a friend’s garage in California.
