pollescu: I'm guessing that local rank means how many local (or determined to be local by the Algo) are linking back to you. Like if you reside in Michigan (as do I) and you are in the Contracting business. Please, anyone correct me if I'm wrong but I'm thinking maybe that this variable in the Algo is measuring how many contractors (related group) in michigan (or area) are linking to you with anchor text as the key to both group and area. Does that make sense?

To illustrate what I'm talking about, here is an example: Contractors in Michigan
