This paper gives an introduction of web search engine with its architecture. It also describes web mining techniques and page ranking algorithm in detail. Some very important page ranking algorithms like PageRank algorithm, Weighted Pagerank algorithm and Hyperlink induced topic search (HITS) algorithm are discussed and Compared on the bases of various parameters like mining techniques, input parameter, working process, complexity, limitation and search engine using algorithm.
