We analyze linkage strategies for a set J of webpages for which the webmaster wants to maximize the sum of Google's PageRank scores. The webmaster can only choose the hyperlinks starting from the webpages of J and has no control on the hyperlinks from other webpages. We provide an optimal linkage strategy under some reasonable assumptions. (c) 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
