Webometrics as a Tool for Measuring Popularity of Websites : an Analysis of Websites of IISERs in India
Authors(1) :-Manoj M Webometrics can be used to measure the popularity or web presence of websites. In the present study, websites of IISERs in India were analysed using Link Analysis to extract no of web pages, in-link pages, and self link pages thereby ranking them based on Web Impact Factor (WIF) and Revised Web Impact Factor (R-WIF). The website of IISER Bhopal came first in both types of ranking followed by the website of IISER Mohali. The website of IISER Tirupati came last in both types of ranking. Also Spearman’s Rank Correlation is used to establish the relation between both the types of ranking. From the results it is clear that, the rankings based on both WIF and R-WIF are same and the Spearman’s Rank Correlation Coefficient is calculated to be one. This means that there is much closeness or association between both types of ranking.
