In the virtual world of internet where Google and internet searching are synonyms, the web content developers thrive on ‘SEO’ (Search Engine Optimization for the uninitiated) or the keywords that you add to your site to make it instantly come up in the first few sites during a Google search. Google Juice , as many sites on the internet will specify, is the ranking that Google gives to your site, for being linked to a good site. More such links, higher the page ranking.
Therefore, Google Juice is essentially the rank of a particular Web page. Higher the page ranking more is the “juice”. Therefore, if your website were attractive/informative/educational enough and many other sites link up to it, your site would have a higher quotient of Google Juice. The key could be smart keywords also, which would enable your site’s URL to crop up anytime a Google search happened on those keywords.
This would make many other sites link your site to theirs thus improving your Google Page ranking more. If that were to happen, your website would have a lot of Google Juice.
Google Juicy Sites
The sites attributed to having most Google Juice right now are the Wikipedia and social networking/bookmarking sites like Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and del.icio.us. For Wikipedia, even the bad ranking pages are rated high and displayed in the top ten results of Google.
That shows the amount of trust that Wikipedia has generated in Google.
