Abstract
Use of links to enhance page ranking has been widely studied The underlying assumption is that links convey recommendations Although this technique has been used successfully in global web search it produces poor results for website search because the majority of the links in a website are used to organize information and convey no recommendations By distinguishing these two kinds of links respectively for recommendation and information organization this paper describes a pathbased method for web page ranking We define the Hierarchical Navigation Path HNP as a new resource for improving web search HNP is composed of multistep navigation information in visitors’ website browsing It provides indications of the content of the destination page We first classify the links inside a website Then the links for web page organization are exploited to construct the HNPs for each page Finally the PathRank algorithm is described for web page retrieval The experiments show that our approach results in significant improvements over existing solutions
