Whilst Panda and Penguin were changes to a part of the old algorithm, Hummingbird is the new algorithm, which is made up of more than 200 factors that can affect ranking and search. The biggest changes were made with a sharp eye on mobile and that’s not surprising given the explosion of the middle market in recent years.

This brought about ‘conversational search’ being added to the Hummingbird algorithm, which is designed to focus on the meaning of a phrase, rather than individual keywords. This is because many people now use voice when searching on mobile, rather than typing – let’s face it, it’s a lot easier to say something than to type on a soft keyboard.

PageRank is one of over 200 major “ingredients” that go into the Hummingbird recipe. Hummingbird looks at PageRank — how important links to a page are deemed to be — along with other factors like whether Google believes a page is of good quality, the words used on it and many other things (see our Periodic Table Of SEO Success Factors for a better sense of some of these).

PageRank has not been affected much by the Google Hummingbird. Page Rank is one of the 200 ingredients that go into the making of the Hummingbird algorithm. The HummingBird algorithm still refers to the PageRank algorithm to determine the quality of the links on the page and to determine the quality of the overall page. So the PageRank algorithm has not been affected. Just that the use case of the PageRank algorithm has been changed as a component of the Hummingbird algotirhm

The simple answer is NO. It is said that Google uses around 200 signals to determine ranking of pages and PageRank is just one of these factors. PageRank is one of the most significant factors that Google’s Hummingbird considers when delivering search results. PageRank has no direct impact on the quality of the content and only looks for the numbers of quality links. Your website should have authoritative content and links from reliable domains.

The Google HummingBird has affected 90% of search traffic. Due to Hummingbird , Google has separated all the quality search results according to search complexity. So, those who are putting same content consequently ,google keeps the less releveant content link at the end of SERPs. For this reason, when a user searches something, he gets only the most relevant and important search content.

Search Engine can parse full query more quickly. Google will be able to identify and rank content it has indexed with relevant queries. Search Engine can compile voice-based queries more accurately.
Google will only return relevant search results. Irrelevant results will be discarded. Search Results would be determined to best suit the user experience.
All these factors are result of hummingbird algorithm which affect the pagerank .

Hummingbird is built on existing parts as well as new processes, so Google hasn’t completely thrown out their previous techniques such as PageRank which is just one of over 200 major factors that go into the Hummingbird algorithm. The main difference is that Google now focuses on “conversational search” rather than simply identifying keywords.  For instance, “What’s the closest place to buy the iPhone 5s to my home?” A traditional search engine might focus on finding matches for words — finding a page that says “buy” and “iPhone 5s,” for example.

Hummingbird should better focus on the meaning behind the words. It may better understand the actual location of your home, if you’ve shared that with Google. It might understand that “place” means you want a brick-and-mortar store. It might get that “iPhone 5s” is a particular type of electronic device carried by certain stores. Knowing all these meanings may help Google go beyond just finding pages with matching words.

Page rank is all about back links.The higher the good quality links a website has,more will be its page rank.But in the post hummingbird world,page rank is just one amongst the many factors it uses,so it may affect the page in a search if other factors are more weighted.
Although as per google,for search rank results,good quality links play a very important role if no black hat techniques are used.

Google Hummingbird algorithm does not majorly affect the page rank algorithm and it is just a factor which page rank considers for giving results as Humming birds main purpose was to deliver search results based on Search intent and not on the keywords in the search query so , page rank has too many factors which it considers to cater the user's query and it won't directly affect the Page rank algorithm .

Googles Hummingbird makes use of design graphs and semantic searches to give results based on intent rather than on individual searches, different from previous  Penguin and Panda algorithms. This has helped in 'conversational queries' that focus on the framing of the sentence along with the actual words used. All this affects the search results and therefore the page rank. This apart, Google has said to be using 200 signals to determine ranking of pages as it used to in previous algorithms

Yes, Hummingbird algorithm do affect the search engine rankings in good way, but doesn’t really affect the SEO process. Hummingbird concentrate more on the content of the website rather than the keywords. It uses longtail keywords (more than 2-3 keywords) to give results.

So, SEO experts have to just take care of good quality and relevant content and more focus on longtail keywords.

This is the youtube link which explains how hummingbird algorithm work? And how does it affect SEO process?  with an example of search query “Vanilla and cinnamon cupcake recipe”. Old search engine will just take keywords “cupcake + recipe” and will list down all the sites with all types of cupcakes recipes, where as new hummingbird update will list the sites which has the recipe of “vanilla and cinnamon cupcakes” only.

Hummingbird adds more strength to phrase-based queries, which effectively caters to the optimization of content and questions that are asked naturally. Phrases that ask ‘Who’, ‘What’, ‘Where’ and ‘How’ prove beneficial to SEO, and may help you return more rich results. So loading your site with good quality content is the key.
Whereas PageRank, which looks at how important links to a page are or in future will be, remains one of the major components of the Hummingbird algorithm. That’s why it remains important to consider link metrics and strive for similar documents. Promoting a relationship between your site and others allows Google to identify what your website or business deals in or with.

Hummingbird algorithm has not affected the use of page rank algorithm. PageRank is one of the most significant factors that Google’s Hummingbird considers when delivering search results. So the Links will definitely continue to impact PageRank, meaning that credible backlinks are a major component of Hummingbird. Though PageRank has no direct impact on the quality of the content, it only looks for the numbers of quality links. Therefore your website should have authoritative content and links from reliable domains.

So instead of working in such a way that looks for individual words, Hummingbird works in such a way that it can better understand a question, such as “where can I find a chemist in Birmingham”. It looks for the meaning behind the words, rather than just at the words themselves and it looks at the entire phrase to decipher that meaning.
Not much differnce has been made really, unless you’re bending or breaking the rules, a white hat approach will mean that SEO shouldn’t be affected. if you’re a publisher of quality content then Hummingbird will make no difference.

Page Rank, which looks at how important links to a page are deemed to be, remains one of the major components of the Hummingbird algorithm. That’s why it remains important to consider link metrics and strive for co citations. Promoting a relationship between your site and others allows Google to identify what your website or business deals in or with. We learned this with Penguin, but Hummingbird reaffirms how inbound links from topically irrelevant contexts are considered bad links.

Hummingbird also uses some part of the older ones like  Panda and Penguin.  Therefore, very little has changed as the focus is still on quality.
