Article Discussion: Topic Sensitive PageRank
There has been speculation in the search engine optimization community, about the potential implementation of Topic-Sensitive PageRank, by the leading search engine Google. Topic-Sensitive PageRank (TSPR) is considered by some to be a further refinement of Google’s well known PageRank system.

Topic-Sensitive PageRank may actually be heading in the wrong direction. There're generally two approaches for information retrival: 1) algorithm or statistical approach, and 2) natural language processing and understanding. Algorithm approach retrieves and ranks document using statistics of documents without actually understanding the documents. There's a limit how far algorithm can go, whether the algorithm is based on syntactic or semantic features of document collection.

It would be interesting to see a uptodate discussion of this - is TSPR still believe to have been implemented?

You are right.

It would be very interesting to see exactly Google is using TSPR at the moment. :-D

If it has been implemented, I don't think it's a huge part of the algorithm, as 'Googlebombs' are still fairly common place. If TSPR were a huge factor, this would eliminate the ability to 'Googlebomb' I would think.

Agreed. Does anyone remember that anti-bush google bomb a few months ago? I would assume that TSPR would not have allowed it be the #1 google return.

I think Google bombs are more designed to take adavantage of the link power to rise in the SERPs. In that sense, they are more related to themeing, than the true meaning of Topic Sensitive PageRank.

I don't think they are part of TSPR, since PageRank is not likely to be affected by the Google bomb for very long. If the bomb is on a group of blogs, for example, the post will scroll quickly off the home page and fall to a page with lesser PageRank.

They may scroll off page one but they normally still exist in the archive. It's always seemed to me that the links anchor text is what is most important for the google bomb - not the PR.

To me this dispells the likelyhood of TSPR being used, or it's relevance against link text.

Either way, we agree that with Google bombs, the anchor text and the potential themeing is what is important.

It's not PageRank or TSPR.
