A credit rating is an independent assessment of the creditworthiness of a bond (note or any security of indebtedness) by a credit rating agency. It measures the probability of the timely repayment of principal and interest of a bond. Generally, a higher credit rating would lead to a more favorable effect on the marketability of a bond. The credit rating symbols (long-term) are generally assigned with "triple A" as the highest and "triple B" (or Baa) as the lowest in investment grade (See below for definition of rating grades). Anything below triple B is commonly known as a "junk bond."
Established rating agencies are for example Standard&Poors or Moodys.
It should be noted that the credit rating of a bond tells you nothing about the probability of losing money from changes, especially declines, in the bond's market value. A bond may not actually default but if many investors are concerned that it might then it's market value will decline sharply. This will bring substantial unrealised losses for those who still hold the bond. Many of these holders will now be sufficiently alarmed about the default risk inherent in continuing to hold the bond that they will sell, sometimes at almost any price, thus crystallising their losses.

Standard & Poor's is a business credit rating service. The better your S&P rating is, the lower the interest rate you'll have to pay on any bonds you issue.
Usually they are safer than other forms of investment, because the government can always raise taxes to repay its debts. However, some governments have defaulted on their debts in the past, so they are not totally safe. You can tell which government bonds are safer than others by their credit rating. Australia and Singapore have AAA credit ratings (the best there is), but other governments like Greece and Portugal have much lower credit ratings and their bonds are not as safe.
