1. A computer-implemented method of ranking a plurality of linkable documents, the method comprising the steps of:
- (a) analyzing each document with respect to at least one criterion comprising at least one of a readability of the document determined with regard to a user'"'"'s age or the presence of unsafe or inappropriate content in the document, and assigning an intrinsic score to each document based on the analysis, the intrinsic score measuring at least one intrinsic property of the respective document and not its relations to other documents;
(b) identifying links between the documents; and
(c) using a processor, generating a ranking score for each document based at least in part on the intrinsic scores of nodes linked therewith.

Abstract
A plurality of linkable nodes may be ranked based on their intrinsic scores. The intrinsic scores may be assigned to each node based on an analysis of the respective node with respect to one or more criteria. Links may be identified between the nodes, and a ranking score for each node may be generated based on the intrinsic scores of nodes linked therewith.

16. A system for ranking a plurality of linkable documents, comprising:
-
a processor; and in communication with the processor, computer memory storing instructions, executable by the processor, for (a) analyzing each document with respect to at least one criterion comprising at least one of a readability of the document determined with regard to a user'"'"'s age or the presence of unsafe or inappropriate content in the document, and assigning an intrinsic score to each document based on the analysis, the intrinsic score measuring at least one intrinsic property of the respective document and not its relations to other documents, (b) identifying links between the documents, and (c) generating a ranking score for each document based at least in part on the intrinsic scores of documents linked therewith.
