There are disclosed an electrode having a large amount of a dye to be supported, having an excellent dye replacement property and having a capability of improving a photoelectric conversion efficiency, a manufacturing method of the electrode and a dye-sensitized solar cell including the electrode. An electrode 11 according to the present invention includes a dye-supported layer 14 laminated on a substrate 12 and including zinc oxide and a dye. The dye-supported layer 14 has at least a plurality of bump-like protrusions formed so that zinc oxide protrudes radially from the substrate 12, or satisfies represented by the following formula (1): 2≦I002/I101≦12, in which I002 is a peak intensity attributed to a zinc oxide (002) face in X-ray diffraction measurement of the dye-supported layer 14, and I101 is a peak intensity attributed to a zinc oxide (101) face in the X-ray diffraction measurement.
