There’s way too much speculation on the web about how search engines work. Years ago the scientific community already created and documented the concepts that people are assuming things about today. All you have to do is READ
So here’s a list of my favorite papers – including those newer ones “TO.READ (in full detail)” :-)
The classics
Combating Web Spam with TrustRank
Topic-Sensitive PageRank: A Context-Sensitive Ranking Algorithm
Block Level Link Analysis [PDF by MSN
Hilltop – search based on expert documents
Convergence of PageRank and HITS Algorithms
Using Rank Propagation and Probabilistic Counting for Link-Based Spam Detection
Generalizing PageRank: Damping Functions for Link-Based Ranking Algorithms
Undue Influence: Eliminating the Impact of Link Plagiarism on Web Search Rankings
I am still missing those on LSI ( latent semantic indexing ) as well as a couple of papers I read about 2 yrs ago about the link dampening… hmmm
TO.READ
Propagating Trust and Distrust to Demote Web Spam
Authoritative Sources in a Hyperlinked Environment
Lexical and Semantic Clustering by Web Links
MSN Antispam detection – affiliate link patterns
Well, not bad – one could spend a few days reading all these papers…
