Cloud computing is a kind of computing model that promise accessing to information resources in request time and subscription basis. In this environment, there are different type of user’s application with different requirements. In addition, there are different cloud Service providers which present spate services with various qualitative traits. Therefore determining the best cloud computing service for users with specific applications is a serious problem. Service ranking system compares the different services based on quality of services (QoS), in order to select the most appropriate service. In this paper, we propose a W_SR (Weight Service Rank) approach for cloud service ranking that uses from QoS features. Comprehensive experiments are conducted employing real-world QoS dataset, including more than 2500 web services over the world. The experimental results show that execution time of our approach is less than other approaches and it is more flexible and scalable than the others with increase in services or users.
