It's really good practice to go through the ranking first before joining any program but never rely on them completely. Every student has a different set of priorities but ranking are based on total of average points scored by an institution in each section. Like for example People who doesn't have access to high speed internet, Online study material & Video classes doesn't help much to him. Institutes scoring high in online course material is not the right institute for these kind of people. A person who can't attend classes and want to study from home, Colleges which scores high in study centers doesn't worth for them to take admission.
My advice would be to set your priority first & choose an institution accordingly. Read rankings but also see what criteria organization use to prepare these ranking & then take admission in the program which matches your priority.
