What is Google Juice?

From Techopedia.com:

"Google Juice," is a colloquial term for visibility and prominence from the Google search algorithm PageRank and associated traffic on a website. A site that has more "Google juice" shows up more prolifically on top page rankings.

Google juice should not be confused with Google Guice (pronounced the same), an open-source Google tool for Java.
